be quiet! PURE LOOP 360mm AIO CPU Water Cooler | All In One Water Cooling System | Intel and AMD Support | Low Noise | BW008
be quiet! PURE LOOP 360mm AIO CPU Water Cooler | All In One Water Cooling System | Intel and AMD Support | Low Noise | BW008

Pros: - Quiet - Efficient - Keeps CPU at 80 degrees or less under full load - Around 55 degrees when idle Temps are measured in Celsius

Cons: - Was a little bit difficult to install, had to have my little brother hold the radiator in place while I secured the fans in

Overall Review: Great 1st time water cooler for me. It works very well for the past 3 months of usage. It's a little pricey, but I wanted my new custom PC build to be Quiet. I installed it inside a be Quiet Dark Base Pro 900 Rev. 2 case, it looks and works great. I recently built a new PC for myself (Dec.2020), after using my previous custom built PC (Sept.2012). The boot time for Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is very fast, in just under 30 seconds! I've listed my system specs below. - AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16 Core CPU - 128 GB Gskill DDR4 3200 RAM - Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master Motherboard - Sabrent 2 TB NVMe PCI 4.0 SSD (boot drive) - No point in listing other disk drives - Gigabyte Radeon 5700XT GPU (Was very hard to find) - Be Quiet Case (Dark Base Pro 900 Rev. 2) - Be Quiet 1200W PSU

Most Critical Review

Does okay.... it's a bit slow

Patriot 32 GB Quick Drive USB Black, PSF32GQDBK3USB
Patriot 32 GB Quick Drive USB Black, PSF32GQDBK3USB

Pros: Can store files very well, just as any other USB flash drive Got a good deal on 3 in a combo sale

Cons: It's slow!!! Not sure what the exact speed rating is or is supposed to be for this drive, but it runs at least 5 times slower for transferring data, compared to my Sandisk, Samsung, and Adata flash drives. I had intentions on using one or two of these for a live USB stick for running Ubuntu, and the boot time is terrible when compared to the Sandisk with the same OS and same system. Here are the results of boot time for Ubuntu 18.04.3 Sandisk: Less than 50 seconds Patriot (this drive): More than 2 minutes!

Overall Review: If you're looking for storage, then this drive will work, a file transfer of a file that's 2 GB in size, took 2 minutes 15 seconds via USB 3.0 port. If you're looking to run Linux as a live USB, then go with another drive.

Eggcellent AMD Ryzen CPU

AMD Ryzen 9 3950X - Ryzen 9 3rd Gen 16-Core 3.5 GHz Socket AM4 105W Desktop CPU Processor - 100-100000051WOF
AMD Ryzen 9 3950X - Ryzen 9 3rd Gen 16-Core 3.5 GHz Socket AM4 105W Desktop CPU Processor - 100-100000051WOF

Pros: - Very powerful, seems too powerful - My third favorite component of my new PC build (Dec.2020) Only losing to my K95 keyboard and be Quiet Case - A lot more cache, cores, and well everything than my previous i7 3770K (Sept.2012) - Booted on first attempt to start up newly built PC

Cons: - Sort of a con, it constantly runs at 1% CPU usage under Windows 10 Pro OS I've looked into the situation and can't seem to find the application that may be causing this, so that leads me to believe that the CPU may be just a little bit unstable. However, when running Ubuntu 20.04 from a live USB, the CPU goes to 0% for system idle periods.

Overall Review: A very excellent upgrade from my old faithful i7 3770K from my custom build of (Sept.2012) I've been using this CPU for over 3 months now, it's pretty~pretty~pretty good. The boot time for Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is very fast, in just under 30 seconds! I've listed my system specs below. - AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16 Core CPU - 128 GB Gskill DDR4 3200 RAM - Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master Motherboard - Sabrent 2 TB NVMe PCI 4.0 SSD (boot drive) - No point in listing other disk drives - Gigabyte Radeon 5700XT GPU (Was very hard to find) - Be Quiet Case (Dark Base Pro 900 Rev. 2) - Be Quiet 1200W PSU Finally, the packaging is a lot for such a small piece of hardware. I would recommend this CPU to anyone who can afford it and will meet their application needs. Enjoy!

Eggcellent RAM by Gskill

G.SKILL Trident Z Neo Series 128GB (4 x 32GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16Q-128GTZN
G.SKILL Trident Z Neo Series 128GB (4 x 32GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16Q-128GTZN

Pros: - Fast at 3200 MHz - Build quality is very good - Has been stable for over 3 months now

Overall Review: This group of 32GB times 4 = 128GB modules have been an excellent addition to my new custom built PC (Dec.2020). Going from my old system (Sept.2012) with DDR3 1333 RAM, this has been a very pleasant upgrade. The boot time for Windows 10 Pro 64-bit is very fast, in just under 30 seconds! I've listed my system specs below. - AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16 Core CPU - 128 GB Gskill DDR4 3200 RAM - Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master Motherboard - Sabrent 2 TB NVMe PCI 4.0 SSD (boot drive) - No point in listing other disk drives - Gigabyte Radeon 5700XT GPU (Was very hard to find) - Be Quiet Case (Dark Base Pro 900 Rev. 2) - Be Quiet 1200W PSU The memory has been stable for me with now over three months of use. I haven't tried overclocking the speed of these modules yet. But it seems that I could hit 3600 MHz, if I want to. I may do that in the future. For me, this upgrade has been tremendous coming from an Intel Core i7 3770K, DDR3 1333 RAM, SATA 3 SSDs, and a 1060 GTX GPU. I would recommend these modules to anyone needing the capacity and performance they offer.

Decent Graphics Card

GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 x16 ATX Graphics Card GV-R57XTGAMING OC-8GD (rev. 2.0)
GIGABYTE Radeon RX 5700 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 x16 ATX Graphics Card GV-R57XTGAMING OC-8GD (rev. 2.0)

Pros: - Delivers 60 Fps in just about any game 2019 and older. - Was in stock for a short period of time for my new PC build in (Dec.2020) - PCI Express 4.0

Cons: - Seems to cause system stability issues at random times - PC runs stable if it boots with video display, but when it doesn't want to corporate this GPU causes the user (me) to reboot the system so it will boot with video - Fans are loud in my be Quiet case, but most GPU fans are loud

Overall Review: This card meets my needs until the stock of some better cards are readily available, I'm not paying for absurd prices. The picture via DP and HDMI is great, and gaming is pretty good. The fans are noisy as mentioned. And the random times that my system won't boot with video display is annoying, it seems to occur about 1 or 2 times a month. I can deal with the noisy fans, but the stability is the reason I had to dock one egg off. I've spent many hours troubleshooting the issue, but nothing seems to improve the random system boot up with no video incidents. It's just something I'll have to deal with until the GPU market becomes more stable as it was back in the day. I've listed my system specs below. - AMD Ryzen 9 3950X 16 Core CPU - 128 GB Gskill DDR4 3200 RAM - Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master Motherboard - Sabrent 2 TB NVMe PCI 4.0 SSD (boot drive) - No point in listing other disk drives - Gigabyte Radeon 5700XT GPU (Was very hard to get) - Be Quiet Case (Dark Base Pro 900 Rev. 2) - Be Quiet 1200W PSU
