My First Ever PC Build

MSI INSPIRE GeForce RTX 5080 16GB GDDR7 PCI Express 5.0 Graphics Card RTX 5080 16G INSPIRE 3X OC

Pros: Used this on a pc build, my first PC build ever. Installation was easy and it comes with support bracket. I use it more for video and photo editing and it is night and day difference compared to my previous computer. Photo editing in lightroom(denoise, export) is very fast. Video rendering is also very fast. It is an excellent product for my use case.

Overall Review: Would recommend for photo and video editing. I'm not a gamer so I cannot say if I recommend it for that use case or not.

Great sound and looks beautiful

Pros: Sound, apperance, quild quality.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: These were delivered on 2013/12/20 and I hooked them up as soon as I got home and let me tell, they sound fantastic. They replaced the front RM7’s and what a huge difference in sound. They make watching movies more fun and entertaining. In addition to its sound quality, the POLK Monitor 75T (Cherry) looks beautiful and compliments any home décor; take the grill off and it looks even better. Powering these with an Onkyo TX-SR707 in a 3.2 set.

Pros: I think this subwoofer has a solid construction, sound and look. Added it to my Bose Acoustimass 16 Series making it a 6.2 using an Onkyo TX-SR707.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I have enjoyed my Bose since 2005 but I think I will switch to Polk. Will keep the Bose for my smaller media room but upgrading to polk for the bigger room.

WOW

Polk Audio RM8 Center Channel Speaker Black

Pros: Solid build, deep bass

Cons: Not magnetically shielded might have effect on tv depending on placement

Overall Review: Paired it with Polk's RM7 sorrounds and RM8 center with very old sony bookshelf speakers that I've had since 98 and and a 6 year old sony reciever in my sons room and it makes a lot of difference watching movies and playing videos cames. I also use it to convert my bose acustimass 16 series (6.1) in the living room to a 6.2 with a onkyo TX-SR707 and now the couch rumbles more and picture frames rattle on the walls when watching moveis. I love it, wife does not...:). I am now looking at repalcign my Bose acustimass with the RM95. Will upgrade the RM95 to 9.2.

Pros: Awsome bass. Looks nice and has a solid feel. Auto power on/off switch. Adjustable volume and bass.

Cons: If I am not mistaken, I think the manual said that it is not magnetically shielded so it might affect the TV depending on how close it is to the it

Overall Review: Paired it with two RM7 and RM 8 center with older sony book shelf speakers mainly for watching movies and playing video game in son's room. Adds a lot of bass to MW3. Also use it to convert a 6.1 to 6.2 with onkyo-SR707 in the living room and I can feel the couche rumble.
