GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-UD4H LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
GIGABYTE GA-Z87X-UD4H LGA 1150 Intel Z87 HDMI USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: First off I need to say that this is my first time using a Gigabyte product. -Crazy board set itself up. I have never seen a Mobo do that before. I have used both ASUS and MSI boards in the past, and always had to go back and reset the information. --Samsung 840evo 120GB auto set trim --Corfsair 8gb Veng 1600mhz auto set to the correct timming and frequency.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I don't think that I will be going back to ASUS or MSI again. When I choose this board, it was a toss up between this and the ASrock Fatality series, and this board won. I am glad it did.

Pros: Looks nice Feels nice

Cons: A little smaller than I thought it would be The Chinese writing is more prominent than the pictures made it out to be. Took forever to get to me.

Overall Review: I am not mad at this purchase, but had I known the Chinese writing was stood out so well, I would not have bought it.

Fantastic Mobo

MSI Z170A GAMING M7 LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard
MSI Z170A GAMING M7 LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI USB 3.1 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: The ability to turn on the PC from sleep mode with moving the mouse Reinforced PCIE slots DDR4 RAM

Cons: A bit pricey. I almost did not get this Mobo because how pricey it was.

Overall Review: The simple fact that I can turn on my PC with my mouse instead of reaching under the desk... for a guy with a bad back, this is a blessing!!!!

Fantastic for 3440x1440

MSI GeForce GTX 1070 8GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support ATX Graphics Card GTX 1070 GAMING Z 8G
MSI GeForce GTX 1070 8GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support ATX Graphics Card GTX 1070 GAMING Z 8G

Pros: Runs a 34" 3440x1440 ultra wide monitor through MMORPG gaming like a champ. WoW is well over 200 FPS in open world, and 120s in new Dalaran for a Full server

Cons: The design is a bit kiddish to me. However, I did not get it for the looks

Overall Review: I would absolutely recommend this for anyone.

Pros: Large curved screen Came assembled Beautiful picture Minimum Black Light Bleed, so far as I have been able to tell There is some serious ease of operation. GTX 1070 playing wow is 140 FPS in the open world, and 80 FPS in new Dalaran by the flight path.

Cons: None yet, but give it some time

Overall Review: I am in absolute awe over this monitor. I was going to buy the Acer XR34ICK, and the web site said that this was a newer version so I got it. Well worth every penny. I will update if there is anything left to update.

Pros: Easy and fast

Cons: Gets a little warm

Overall Review: The wife and I bought this because she wanted to stream netflix in the bedroom, and we needed something for NFL Sunday ticket. We love that we bought it, and love how it works. However, I do not like leaving it plugged in all the time because it gets really hot.
