A MUST BUY!
Pros: 1. Soft touch rubber on the top of the keyboard and on all of the keys makes it feel very nice to the touch. 2. Cherry MX Red switches are just amazingly responsive and great for gaming. The do however take some getting used to typing on, but not really a con. 3. Durable and quality product design. 4. Nice backlit keys. 5. Great price for what you get.
Cons: 1. It hasn't told me that it loves me yet, even though I tell it almost everyday.
Overall Review: If you are looking for an amazing mechanical keyboard with great quality inside and out, then look no further. FYI. I told myself that I would never buy a mechanical keyboard and then broke down and bought one and now I wish I had bought one sooner.
STAY AWAY!! I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH!!!
Pros: Affordable cooler. Comes with 4 fans.
Cons: Quality control seems nonexistent. I've had two units and one was deformed and the other had one bad fan out of the four that come with it and the pump just died. See other for greater details.
Overall Review: This will be my second cooler to fail since March 2017. As I write this review it's currently July 30, 2017. My first first cooler arrived deformed and unable to be mounted as the fan mounts would no longer line up with holes on the rad. I went through the RMA process and received a new cooler. Upon receiving the new cooler, only 3 our of the 4 fans worked properly. The one fan made a horrible clicking noise. It was whatever. I only had room for 2 fans so I didn't bother to RMA it. Cut to tonight, and the internal pump on the cooler dies.
Oh Boy
Pros: Came with a free game...
Cons: Has crashed in just about every single game I have played. Also experiencing frame time stuttering with frame times upward of 200ms without having any kind of significant frame drop. Have used the newest drives and multiple older drivers and these issues are still present. Tested the same games on my 970 that I upgraded from and even with significant frame drops, I don't see nearly the insane frame time spikes that I see with this 2070. Not sure if I got unlucky and got a busted card out of the box, or if these new cards are just trash. Going by what I've seen on forums and reviews, it seems a good portion of users are experiencing similar issues.
Overall Review: Not sure if I should take my chances with an RMA and hope I get a working card or just eat the restocking fee and cut my losses. IMO for those looking for an upgrade, I would hold off and see if the quality control on the 2000 series cards improves or hold off to see competitors offerings in the near future.
Dead Pixels and Damaged Box
Pros: Decent colors for a TN, decent price for a 144Hz monitor.
Cons: I've had the monitor for only 8 months and every few weeks it seems I discover a new stuck or dead pixel. Right now I have 8-10 stuck pixels and two that are dead. I would also like to add, after I set up the monitor I had one stuck pixel from the start, at about the middle left of the monitor. Damaged box. See 'Other'
Overall Review: Honestly I would save up a bit more cash and buy a better monitor if you care about dead/stuck pixels. Also when I received the monitor the box was wet and damage and parts of it were covered in mud. The contents inside were dry and clean and free of defects. Aside from the stuck pixel I mentioned. In hindsight, I should have done a RMA. Lesson learned.
Not Worth The Money
Pros: Decent sound, light-weight and comfortable.
Cons: The mic is below average at best, the mic mute switch was doa out of the box, two months later now the right driver cracks and pops when the inline volume control is below half. Also if you go much less than half the right driver just goes silent. If you move the volume control up past half way the popping and cracking stop but it's so loud you have to turn down your system sound to compensate.
Overall Review: Just spend $10-$20 more on a better set and stay away from this model.
Not bad
Pros: 1. Customizable software 2. Braided cable 3. Nice soft touch feel 4. Decent dpi range 5. Price
Cons: 1. Tracking could be smoother 2. 1 out of every 100 left mouse clicks doesn't seem to register even though you hear the audible click.
