Fan Shroud STILL hitting the center fan.

GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 AORUS Xtreme 8GB DirectX 12 GV-N1080AORUS X-8GD 256-Bit GDDR5X PCI Express 3.0 x16 ATX Video Card
GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1080 AORUS Xtreme 8GB DirectX 12 GV-N1080AORUS X-8GD 256-Bit GDDR5X PCI Express 3.0 x16 ATX Video Card

Pros: -One of the fastest GTX 1080's... -RGB of course. Now Asus can't "outshine" Gigabyte anymore.

Cons: -Second edition flagship card, and the genius's over at Gigabyte still didn't figure out a way to stop the center fan from making contact w/the fan shroud. You have to apply physical pressure and pull the "X" logo away from the fan, and then no more contact. Half a mm extra clearance would have solved this issue entirely.

Overall Review: -I thought about giving this one egg because it is super annoying. A customer should in no way have to "mod" or "fix" products upon opening. Also, and this might be nothing...but the box that it came in was not shrink wrapped. -I'm going to give this five eggs anyways, because it is working fine now, and I'm sick of my own complaining. You guys are all great. Fix your Quality Control please.

Corsair is disappointing me

CORSAIR H100i RGB ELITE Liquid CPU Cooler - White - 16 Dynamic RGB LEDs - AF120 ELITE PWM Fans - Intel LGA 1851, 1700, 1200, 2066, AMD®  AM5 & AM4 Sockets

Overall Review: I'm having this problem where the pump continually disconnects/reconnects, making a hardware insert, USB, sound during gaming sessions. Other people had this issue and corsair says the solution is to turn off monitoring software, because the pump is in "highlander mode" and will not play nice and share resources with other software. But why though? Why can't you just make it compatible with monitoring software?! A huge part of pc gaming is monitoring your hardware, bruh. Definitely will be looking at other aio's next time, corsair!

Neat

Pros: It's cool. The magnets do not attach securely to the feet, however. If you want to install the monitor outside your case, as I have, the magnets will stick to your case but not to the feet of the monitor. It's wobbly. Hence 4 stars.

Overall Review: I like the display. A 5.5 inch 1440p monitor is mental.

Oh yes!

Overall Review: I love it so much. It's like a big, beautiful beast.

Overall Review: I really like this case as it is super pretty and takes a headache out of airflow concerns because of the mesh. It is semi-transparent. You can see rgb in the case very well. It is well priced.

Okay

Dowinx High Back Gaming Chair with Massage Lumbar Support, Game Chair with Adjustable Headrest, Ergonomic Office Chair, Racing Chair with Footrest, PU Leather, Brown

Pros: -Cool Footrest, comfortable. -I like the brown color

Cons: -Chair squeaks something awful -Backrest is not stable. At any height setting it has noticeable give.

Overall Review: I am overall not super-pleased with this, my first gaming chair, though I would give it 3.5 stars if I could. The main issue is the fact that the backrest won't stay put. It tilts forward and backward, shifting the armrests with it. I do not think this is a result of improper assembly, as I was very careful. I think it is a quality thing. I will probably be buying nice office chair from a reputable company next time.
