Pros: This card from EVGA is definitely one of the best value cards for gaming right now. It's basically a GTX 680 but with the new features from the 700 series and it runs all of my games at 1080p at the highest settings. The ACX cooler runs the factory overclock at less than 80 degrees at 50% fan rpm and the EVGA PrecisionX software is great for overclocking it even farther. The cooler is quiet. The card has a TDP of 250 watts and only requires one 6 pin and one 8 pin connector. The 2 gigabytes of memory is more than enough for 1080p. The card supports all of the exclusive Nvidia features like G-sync, PhysX, GPU Boost, Adaptive V-sync, and 3-way SLI. It has 7 gigabit memory! It's also relatively compact considering that it's a high end GPU.

Cons: Only comes with one free game as opposed to the AMD never settle bundle. Doesn't come with a backplate, but one is available for purchase separately (the backplate looks great). Doesn't support 4 way SLI.

Overall Review: It's hard to find a card that performs this well, looks this great, and supports all of the latest features for this price. For someone running a 1080p display, this card is more than enough for the latest games and is a great buy! Intel i5-4690k Asus Z97-Pro 650 Watt PSU

Pros: Is under 100 dollars (even though it was 120 when I first got it.) Is better than Intel Core 2 Quad and almost as good as i5 for way way cheaper. Plays very fast paced and huge games with no problem and frames are never slow and are never jerky. It only gets too 100% usage when im doing a skype call and streaming HD video. It fit with a lot of chipsets, motherboards, and AM3 is a nice socket. I was able to overclock it to 3.1 ghz stable with stock cooler at 60c. I consider that really good. Almost as good as Phenom II X4 except it doesn't have L3 cache. Everything I do which involves some pretty intensive stuff runs perfectly and smoothly. I don't think AMD could have done a better job on this CPU.

Cons: Doesn't have L3 cache. Only 4 cores. Only 2.6 GHZ but you get what you pay for. I mean it is like 80 dollars now. If you pay more you get more. Besides that no cons.

Overall Review: I think AMD did a really good job with this CPU and it is the perfect balance of value, performance, energy efficiency, reliability, midrange, budget, and enterprise all in one. I don't think I could have chose a better CPU for 100 dollars. By the way my specs are: Graphics: (1) Diamond ATI Radeon HD 5750 PSU: Antec Earthwatts EA-650 Case: Xion Gaming Series ArmorX Motherboard: Asus M4A78T-E CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 620 Optical Drive: Toshiba Super Writemaster HDD (Storage): Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200 RPM 32 MB Cache SSD (Boot): OCZ Vertex 2 60 GB

Pros: Looks really cool Comes with two fans that are good enough Fits two more which is really good Has a nice front door which covers the optical drives Buttons on top for placement on the floor Not that hard to install things There is enough room Has good quality buttons

Cons: Screws just randomly placed in the bag which is not helpful Front fan is more for show then for ventilation Doesn't have a second back fan Takes four screws to mount drives Sometimes very hard to get expansion slots open without breaking the case but after the first time it gets easier

Overall Review: I have had this case for a year now and it has served me well for the price. It fits everything and even though it can be a bit annoying to have to look for the right screws and then need four of them to mount a drive, this is really the only big thing that Xion could have done better with this case. My Specs: CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 620 Case: This Case Mobo: Asus M4A78T-E Graphics: (1) Diamond ATI Radeon HD 5750 PSU: Antec Earthwatts 650 RAM: OCZ Gold DDR3 4GB 1070 MHZ Optical Drive: Super Writemaster HDD (Storage): Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200 RPM 32 MB Cache SSD (Boot Drive): OCZ Vertex 2 60GB

Pros: Is 7200 RPM which is average and its pretty fast. 32 MB of cache is really good for a drive. Supports SATA II which is good for the price. Performs very well and has never failed. I love Seagate drives. They have great five year warranties and last a long time.

Cons: It doesn't have 64 MB of cache and is only 7200 RPM but because it is only a "good" drive and not an "amazing" drive you can't expect that. Doesn't come with enough screws for my case.

Overall Review: I have had this drive for a year and I have never had a problem. Now I have an SSD which is my boot drive but I still use this drive as my storage drive because the SSD is only 60 GB. The drive doesn't bottleneck my system at all and is good because my mobo doesn't do SATA III. I still back up all my data on a Seagate FreeAgent Desktop 500GB because I have had problems with drives before but I don't anticipate having any with this one for a while. My Specs: CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 620 Mobo: Asus M4A78T-E Case: Xion Gaming Series ArmorX Graphics: Diamond ATI Radeon HD 5750 RAM: OCZ Gold DDR3 4GB 1070MHZ PSU: Antec Earthwatts 650 Optical Drive: Super Writemaster HDD (Storage): This Drive SSD (Boot Drive): OCZ Vertex 2 60GB

Pros: My system has never failed or faltered or anything with this PSU. It has a really nice fan and I have never had a problem with heat. It has enough cables to support all of the hardware I have in my pretty substantial system. By Antec, which is a pretty trusted company. Has a lot of peripheral cables, which is good because I have a lot of case fans. Very energy efficient and 80Plus.

Cons: It is non-modular which can make cable management an issue depending on your case and if there is a place to store the cables you are not using. It only has TWO PCI-E cables and that means that I can't get any more PCI-E hardware without getting another power supply! If it had three or four it would be better.

Overall Review: I have had this PSU for a year and have NEVER had a problem. I think it was really worth the money because I am getting my 650 watts without using as much electricity as other PSUs. If you are gonna have Quad CrossfireX or more than 2 drives than you should definitly get a higher powered PSU but if you do some gaming, but not too graphics intensive, a fair amount of storage, and have a a good CPU, this PSU will be perfect. My Specs: CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 620 Mobo: Asus M4A78T-E Case: Xion Gaming Series ArmorX RAM: OCZ Gold 4GB 1070MHZ DDR3 Graphics: Diamond ATI Radeon HD 5750 Optical Drive: Super Writemaster HDD (Storage): Seagate Barracuda 7200 RPM 32 MB Cache 1TB SSD (Boot Drive): OCZ Vertex 2 60GB

Pros: Supports DirectX 11. Has GDDR5. Has a pretty good cooler. Good manufacturing. From Diamond. Has two DVI ports. Has HDMI port. This is just a really good card for a gamer who doesn't do the super graphics intensive games. Works good with games that take a lot of RAM and games that have somewhat graphics intensive or have really good graphics but aren't really 3D high intensity and speed games. Does eyefinity. PCI Express 2.0. Supports CrossfireX. Has Catalyst Control Center which I love.

Cons: Not really....

Overall Review: I have had this card for a year without crossfire (although it does hybrid crossfire with my internal graphics). It almost never is jerky in most of my games (they are not that fast paced but have a lot of high resolution graphics). Also, because it is a year old, you might want to go with something a little better like the 5770.
