Runs fast, stays cool, and doesn't draw a lot of power. For $80 bucks and 6 cores / 12 threads this thing was a steal

Keeps my Ryzen 5 1600 cool (30 idle / 52 load) and looks amazing! I used the black top cover version which isn't available in the pcpp lists. However, the rgb cable is pretty annoying and doesn't like to stay in the header, which makes cable management irritating

works i think

Looks nice, and the vrms seem solid. The pre-installed i/o shield is nice, and made the build process easier. However, Aura sync is somewhat finnicky. I wish it was easier to make custom color cycles and there aren't too many white lighting options. I won't knock off a star because of its nice overclocking abilities and easy to use bios. I appreciate the rgb header at the top of the board, it makes it easy to plug in the cpu cooler without using an extension cable.

Runs at its rated stable speed perfectly, and looks sick. The led hotspots are visible, but the ram is ARGB so that's nice. I tried to oc the timings but that didn't work too well.

I knew I was getting a DRAMless drive when I went into this, and it's just fine. The system ram is perfectly capable of handling the cache, and this thing boots in just a couple of seconds. Load times are amazing as well.

Got this used, and I don't regret it. The RGB is sweet, but the leds on the face of the card are somewhat dim. It may just be overshadowed by my rgb strip, not sure. The G/P/M temperature indicator leds work fine, but don't always turn on until I launch xoc. They are still a nice touch. Interestingly, the ftw badge is rgb but it always has a blue tint so it isn't the same color as the rest of the badge. Performance is insane. This thing is silent, boosts to 2000mhz out of the box, and doesn't ever go above 60c during gaming. It isn't as heavy as a strix or amp card, so doesn't cause a ton of sag. It is rather power hungry, however. It requires two 8-pin pci-e power connectors. That is a perfectly good trade-off for this excellent cooler in my opinion.

Awesome to build in. Tons of room, adequate airflow and looks awesome. The included RGB strip is weird. The 4-pin connector only has a cable about an inch long from the end of the strip, and the other cable just connects to the base and power button rgb. So the strip would have to be plugged in at the base (or top) of the board and just start there, which looked bad. Thankfully, my motherboard included an extension cable, but the case did not. Once I got it working, it looked great. Also, when I plugged in the case fans and turned the pc on for the second time, I heard a beep, a pop, and a cloud of smoke arose from the fan headers on the board. Not sure if that was the fan, the board, or just me being an idiot. Whatever happened, I reattached the fans and now they both work fine. I ended up removing the drive cage since I didn't have any hard drives so I would have more room for cable stuffing. That was pretty simple, so I appreciate the modularity.

Quiet, powerful, and easy to use thanks to its fully modular design. For $60 at Mid Week Madness, a steal.

Nice loud clicks. Synapse is pretty easy to use and rgb is easily customizable.

Tactile, awesome accurate sensor, rgb, and 16000 dpi!
