Solid Build, High OC
Pros: High Overclock Price Performance Temperature
Cons: None so far
Overall Review: I've been running it at 850Mhz Core and 1155Mhz Memory clock without any problems. Deeming this the most overclockable "intro" 6850 that I've used. Temperature not exceeding 58 degrees C. I'm not sure how the temperature stays so low, probably because I have insane negative flow from my case. The card was a substantial upgrade from my last XFX5770, giving me about 10-20fps more in most graphic intensive games. I am very happy with the card so far, and will probably look to sapphire again for future upgrades.

Unleashed full wifi capabilities
Pros: Fastest WiFi adapter I have ever used. Getting solid 125mbps down 75mbps up (25/10 on powerline, 15/10 on USB adapter)
Cons: Price
Overall Review: I was struggling with choppy and slow internet for years before my friend suggested one of these. The price can be a bit daunting but I don't regret it one bit. This is the first adapter that I have used that gives me the full speed from my ISP, and it's 2 walls and a floor away. Amazing unit.
Fast, perfect for OS or game drive
Pros: Faster than 850 EVO, is usually on sale for ~130
Cons: None
Overall Review: I'm using this as a game drive. It works great.
Works flawlessly on Asus Z390-H
Pros: B-Die, CL14 3200 with XMP
Cons: A bit pricey, but it's b-die.
Overall Review: RAM was easy to install and once XMP was enabled, showed the advertised speed and latency. No issues when benchmarked.
Cool Temps, Good Paste
Pros: Easy to apply, low temps compared to stock paste. Was on sale
Cons: None
Overall Review: Great budget paste.
Fast and reliable, Easy to setup
Pros: Went on Asus M5A99FX board with no issues at all. Coupled with 8350 the 2133Mhz setting was already there and ready to go.
Cons: Price compared to other high end brands
Overall Review: Picked up for ~130 in MC. The memory was already set to go right out of the box. Great memory to go with your new AMD or Intel Gaming rig. I noticed less stutters than my previous 4x4GB 1600Mhz. I am in no way biased towards any good brand of memory, but I was pleasantly surprised to see this memory perform as well or better than GSkill and Corsair.
