Freezing at Boot (all devices) and Random Restarts
ASRock X99 Extreme4 LGA 2011-v3 Intel X99 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros: Great,.. when it works.
Cons: The behavior of the motherboard started to get more and more sporadic. After updating the bios the computer will no longer boot up properly. Reverting to the previous bios version it had no longer works. Resetting the CMOS does not work. Nor iterating through each RAM stick in memory slot A1 has helped. After disconnecting all of the devices, and booting from a USB drive, it will still freeze while the OS bootloader is running (then after a while just restart).
Overall Review: I've had this motherboard for about a year and a month. It was my first time buying an ASRock and it's going to be my last.

Works Great
2 Ports HDMI Switch, HDMI Switch Bi-Direction 4K HDMI Splitter 2 x 1/1 x 2 No External Power Required 2 Ports HDMI Switcher Supports Ultra HD 4K 3D 1080P for PS4 Xbox Fire Stick Roku
Pros: It's of good build quality. Haven't had any display issues with it. I have connected my laptop through it and can confirm that it does 4K without any issues.
Cons: I have a PS3 and a Nintendo Switch connected through it to my TV. The biggest issue with it is that if I turn on my TV it will cause my PS3 to turn on. Even though the Nintendo Switch is active. A bit of an annoying bug.
Overall Review: It does a good job, if needed I'd buy another one. At the moment though, I don't need more than one.

Bridge From Modem to Other Rooms
TP-Link TL-PA7010 KIT AV1000 Gigabit Powerline Starter Kit Up to 1Gbps
Pros: Easy to install.
Overall Review: Since I'm using this as a bridge to my cable modem, I cannot vouch for the performance. I What I can say is that they are reliable and I haven't had to "restart" them since their install. The last time I had a failure was that I accidentally knocked on loose from the socket.

CPU for my ITX Build.
Intel Pentium G4400 - Pentium Skylake Dual-Core 3.3 GHz LGA 1151 54W Intel HD Graphics 510 Desktop Processor - BX80662G4400
Pros: Does the job. The built in graphics can handle Portal 2.
Cons: None. Don't buy this guy with high expectations.
Overall Review: It's an under-powered CPU. I'm not expecting much from it. Sometimes it can struggle on YouTube. Which is ironic since it can handle Portal 2 (on linux) without any issues at all.

No Issues So Far
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 260-Pin DDR4 SO-DIMM DDR4 2133 (PC4 17000) Laptop Memory Model F4-2133C15D-16GRS
Pros: It works
Cons: NA
Overall Review: I feel that RAM today is quite reliable. I haven't had RAM go out on me on any of my computers since I started my hobby in 2007.
