Pros: Runs great, metal pcie slot provides good support for top GPU.

Cons: When I first got it and tried to power it on, it would flash and the PSU would turn off like it had a short circuit so I started the return process. Since UPS was closed I decided to take off the CPU cover and found 4 pins were all bent in to each other. Once they were moved back to their original positions the mobo posted and all is well.Something weird happened with the drivers upon installation as well and I had to reinstall windows to resolve a "driver state power failure" issue.

Overall Review: I'd recommend this provided you don't mind looking it over to find any issues if it doesn't post. I would've had to return it and possibly been stuck with additional fees plus needing to buy a new mobo if it had been a short somewhere else on the board.
