It`s actually a pretty well performing SSD overall for what it cost at the time. Sold as 120Gb, but you obvsiously never get what they claim. Use it as the boot drive. Want to get at least another 16gb of ram because muh quad channel, possibly more for ram caching. Though 16gb would likely be enough..Need a case, but can`t decide on one. Oh, and my GPU cost as much as my CPU+Motherboard combined. Amazingly low cost system for the performance.

>In saying that I previously had a Zotac and never had issues with it

Zotac also tend to make some of the highest clocked cards you can buy when they feel like it. Their AMP! lineup for maxwell (haven't looekd at pascal) often have higher clocks than anyone else. Their top AMP! 970 for example is as fast as a 980.

the 290X has 1 DP 1.2 and 1 HDMI 1.4, which means it cannot do 2 4K screens at 60Hz (which is why one of mine is running at 30Hz)

The 480 doesn't have this issue
