Pros: GREAT bang for the buck – even without the MIR, DirectX 11 capabilities – though you won’t be using tessellation in games as this would murder your framerate, VGA connection if you’ve got an older monitor, no PCIe power cable required – just pop it in your cheap off-the-shelf PC (mine’s a Dell Inspiron 546 with a 300W PSU) and *poof* it’s a budget gaming rig, great cooler – allows for 10-15% core and memory overclock and STILL never goes above 60 C, if you clock it a bit too high like I did, it has a great feature that will automatically shut the card down and restart it within a minute or two – no need to worry about damaging the card, or the hassle of restarting your computer.

Cons: NONE

Overall Review: Overclocking is easy in CCC Overdrive – got mine perfectly stable at 850MHz core, and 1150MHz memory! Overclocked at full load, still only draws 65W or so. Pairs perfectly with my Athlon II X2 250 and LED monitor - most games run smoothly maxed-out at 1440x900. Some games (Bulletstorm, Bioshock, Just Cause 2, Dragon Age II) I have to turn off AA to get above 30fps, but even Mass Effect 2 and GRID run maxed at 45fps with 8X MSAA.

Pros: Works with any USB device Easy to use

Cons: Not great quality sound Disconnects way too easily

Overall Review: no idea what the included tube is for...

Pros: Does Google Cardboard VR at an insanely cheap pricepoint

Cons: Side-visors seem unnecessary and do not stay open very well. I'm considering snapping them off. Manually sliding the lenses and optics back and forth isn't the easiest thing, but at least that's an option

Overall Review: Basically any con here is completely acceptable because of the price. Probably the cheapest way to get Google Cardboard functionality and it works pretty well.

Pros: No problems installing or choosing the XMP profile for this kit. Running my i5-3570K at 4.0GHz on an Asrock Z77 Pro4 motherboard. Rock-solid so far - haven't messed with the timings because it's plenty fast enough

Cons: None, though we'll see if the heat-spreaders get in the way of a HSF once I upgrade from stock.

Overall Review: Come on, people - do your research before you purchase! Know what your CPU and motherboard are capable of before wasting money on higher-speed RAM than you can use.

Pros: Upgraded from my GTX 660 and expected 30-40% more performance, but this baby shocked me by playing almost all my games at 1440p using DSR; some even at 4K. Most of the reviews show benchmarks at 1080p with MSAA, which this card generally handles quite well, but its real strength, IMO is at 1440p using only SMAA/FXAA. The narrower memory bus had me a bit worried, but I've experienced no drawbacks at 1080p. Turning on 4x or 8x MSAA at 1440p kills the framerate, though. Runs PhysX without dropping below 50fps! I heard somewhere that the PhysX performance hit is closely tied to clockspeed, which this card has in abundance. The fan turns off at idle, is whisper-quiet, and keeps the core below 70C at 40% - which matches the volume of my case fans. Nice and compact - I have a mid-tower, but I hate how long cards sag, so I purposefully buy short cards. The core is overclocked 100MHz over stock out of the box, and I was able to get +50 on the core and +400 on the memory without additional voltage. Comes with a code for Witcher 3! Redeemable on GOG.com

Cons: Not the best overclocker, but it comes with a good bump out of the box, and with my clock settings I'm getting a little over 10% more performance beyond the stock GTX 960.

Pros: Keyboard is awesome, but not as slim as I thought it would be. Mouse works well - 1000dpi.

Cons: Mouse 3 (scroll wheel click) is getting squeaky and mushy after a year.
