Why not

Verified Purchase:Yes
Hey, I was buying the Incredible Hulk from 2008 and saw this gem in 4K for only $15 next to it. So I thought “why not”? Haven’t seen this movie in 16 years though and boy that CG has not aged well. I’ll admit though Ang Lee’s direction is pretty unique, it was like watching a comic book with the moving boxes and panels on screen. Fun buy if you’re a fan.

It’s a secret favorite of mine

It’s just one of those back catalogue films for fans. It’s a great add on to a collection of old 90s action film. Looks great in HD, would be nice if they mastered in 4K though.

Good but not great

Verified Purchase:Yes
This was the first mainline Pokémon game on consoles ever... and meh. I’d be lying if I said this wasn’t the best mainline Pokémon game made to date, BUT I’m relatively speaking. If this was on 3DS this would be amazing but on console... no. Yes, I know graphics are not everything, and pokemon follows a specific art style... but this game was poorly optimized with its poor frame rate, terrible draw distances (characters pop in and out in towns only 10ft from you) I am aware of how capable the switch is, it is MORE powerful than an Xbox 360/PS3 yet it sufferers issues from the PS1 era? It’s a good game... but I've also played Breath of the Wilds, and I can’t help but feel like I just paid for a $60 3DS game.

They’re alright if discounted
on December 28, 2019
Posted by: Ralphy
Verified Purchase:Yes
The sound will get the job done, and it’s wireless features work pretty well. They hang pretty well off your ear with an attractive design, but if you’re like me and wear beanies in the winter, they we’ll be quite uncomfortable to wear. The sound is clouded by its over reliance on bass, so if you’re looking for deep sound then nope. For the average user this will be fine, but if you’re an enthusiast or audiophile, don’t get these. BUT if you are getting these for the sake of convenience then they’re great, just don’t pay full price for these. I fortunately got these on sale and used my rewards on top.

How did they fit such a huge game into the switch

Welp, it is more powerful than ps3/360 but still! We hit that point where we can play games of that scale on the go. Zelda has hit a point of amazement, I never considered an open world mechanic for this franchise but boy does it work flawlessly.

Fun film

Surprisingly this film holds up on its own with a very self contained plot. The rock and statham have great chemistry and are fun to watch. The blu ray looks great and a great addition to my fast and furious 4K collection.

I had to

Verified Purchase:Yes
I usually don’t buy steelbooks to video games but I had to, the art cover won me over. Even though the game is available on game pass Gears 5 renewed my love for the franchise that I had to get it physically. This gem is by far one of the most beautiful games on this console and even this generation. It’s impressive how the Xbox one X can render this in full 4K (with some dynamic rendering) and a clean 60fps. It’s one of the only games that actually makes my console whistle by how hot it gets

Excellent

I love John wick and the series it has created. Unfortunately there may be a chance of over saturation of it since it is no longer a trilogy. Story aside, lionsgate has made a fantastic 4K release, easily one of the cleanest looking 4K blu rays I’ve ever seen which also includes Dolby vision/atmos. Surprisingly enough, even the regular 1080p blu ray has Dolby atmos, which is not the case most of the time since many HD blu rays generally opt for Dolby true HD or 7.1 sound at best. Just a tid bit, makes sure to get the slipcover, the holographic purple is gorgeous!

For $70 this is a steal
on December 27, 2019
Posted by: Ralphy
Verified Purchase:Yes
ALL fast and furious movies in 4K for $70?? If you do the math that’s only $8 versus $20 for the standalone films. They all look great, obviously some look better than others particularly Tokyo Drift getting the short end of the stick. Story wise, it almost surreal seeing the evolution of the series, going from street racing in 2001 LA to trying to stop World War 3.

Enhance the performance of your computer with this AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor. The 4.2GHz Max Boost speed provides extra power for intense processes, and the 32MB L3 cache increases the overall speed by queuing commands in the processor. This AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor has a Wraith Stealth cooling system, which ensures sensitive components function flawlessly.
 

Will this work with a HP Sunflower 8433 motherboard?

While it does support AM4 chips, meaning itll fit, it is not compatible with 3rd generation AMD CPUs. There is good news however, it is compatible with Ryzen 5 2600 (2nd generation), which is still a fantastic CPU and you'll save quite a bit of money.

Is the HDMI port a regular one, or a HDMI 3.0 port?

No, it uses HDMI 2.0b, which is more than enough to send 4K signals with HDR at 60Hz. HDMI 2.1 is the latest meant for higher refresh rates, and used for 8K, 3.0 isn't available yet.
