Great Affordable and Solid GPU
Pros: - Solid Performing Card - Reasonable Price - Stays around 65 degrees averagely while gaming. (Control, Metro: Exodus, Modern Warfare, Destiny 2, AC: Valhalla. All on Very High to Max settings, Only Control and Metro: Exodus at Max with RTX Features all on, including DLSS. All on 1440p.) - Decently quiet-ish fans - RTX Performance is pretty good (with DLSS Enabled) - Fantastic for high framerate 1080p users. Just right for 1440p users as well. - ASUS knows how to make really good 3000 series cards. No matter if it's DUAL, TUF, or ROG. All solid GPUs from the looks of things by reviewers and from this DUAL 3070 OC. Well done ASUS!
Cons: - Seems to favor HDMI over DP when booting your system from Shutdown if you have two screens so you may see the BIOS boot splash screen on the second monitor and not on your main, but once you get to the Windows Log-in screen, it goes back to your main DP monitor. (My Main gaming monitor is DP while my Secondary monitor is HDMI.) - When temps rise and fans start ramping up while at heavy graphical moments in gaming like looking into a city or if there's a lot of activity going on, you can barely hear a slight, quiet yet noticeable long cricket chirp noise coming from the card. I'm guessing that's coil whine? It's not noticeable if you have headset on or have a fan running in the background, but in a quiet room, it's barely noticeable.
Overall Review: I do in fact recommend this GPU for the great price and performance it brings to the table. For an ASUS DUAL card, it's really good!
Good Monitor
Pros: Nice clear resolution. Great monitor for gaming. Stable and speakers are good.
Cons: only have a verrrry small dead pixel dot in the middle of the screen, but it is absolutely unnoticeable and could be just shipping accident. Again, though, its unnoticeable while you are gaming or watching videos so its not a big problem. It's so small it blends in.
Overall Review: Recommended to people who wants a good monitor for their computer of any type. Gaming, everyday, business, etc. I give 5/5 eggs.
Mind Blowing POWER!!
Pros: - Crazy, amazing graphics to gaming - fast speed loading times - pretty blue LED light from back fan and power supply - BIG monster case with a side window to look at your hardware Can play Metro: Last Light, Farcry 3, Tomb Raider, Bioshock Infinite, etc. with maxed out settings without letting the framerate drop below 30fps. Put away those consoles cause this PC can make you blow your mind of awesome.
Cons: - one usb at the front (USB 2.0) seems to be offline cause i would plug something into it and it wont load. But to me its ok causee i dont use every one of them and besides, this pc has like over 7 USBs both USB 2.0 and USB 3.0. So even if one is offline, i still have others that are working. Can live without one. Not much a big deal. - its very BIG, also not a "big" deal really.
Overall Review: I also bought 2 fans to install into it JUST cause i like to keep my systems cool and not overheat from long periods of gaming or 3D modeling and concepts. Yet there seems to only be one for the one blue LED fan at the back of the system. I want to know if there's a way to install two more fans into it so I can keep it cool. But yet, all in all, such a beautiful gaming PC. Fully recommended.
