Great CPU for the money
Pros: Have had this for quite some time now and I am extremely impressed with it so far. It runs great and it does everything I want it do very very well. I am very pleased with it. Easy to over clock and temperatures are alright as well.
Cons: Stock fan is mediocre. Not much to expect so I don't recommend using it. Would be nice to see them not bother including them since no one ever uses them anyways.
Overall Review: Great CPU for the money, don't bother with stock cooler though.
Decent power supply
Pros: It is a decent power supply so far. It is stable when it is on and can be quite when it wants to be.
Cons: Majority of the time when it is running, the fan makes an irritating whiring or whining sound that ticks me off. I am obsessed with things being quite so it does bother me quite a bit. I am considering replacing it because of this. The sleeving isn't the greatest quality and I made a big mistake buying a non modular power supply. Useless cables are sitting in the case. I will not deduct an egg for that however.
Great product for the price
Pros: I installed this on my first computer build (typically built for gaming). I am very impressed with it so far. it is not loud at all. So far so good.
Cons: It was a little difficult to install but when it was on it was good. I didn't use their thermal paste so i can't say anything about that.
Overall Review: Overall pretty darn good considering the low price point. Always the option of adding another fan to it.
Great RAM so far
Pros: -Looks pretty cool -Easy install -Runs well so far
Cons: -Nothing that I can think of at all -Only thing with 1866 and higher is you have to go into bios to set it at 1866, not really a con at all though.
Overall Review: Will definitely be purchasing another 8gb in the near future.
