Solid TV

Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought 2 of these, love them both. Picture is beautiful and sound is decent. Haven’t used the smart part that is built in so I can’t comment on that. I have them working great with Apple TV 4K and Fire TV 4K instead. This is my first LG TV and I am impressed.

Enhance your gaming rig with this XFX Radeon graphics card. Its True Clock technology controls clock speed to maximize performance, and the Radeon Chill feature tracks game play to regulate the frame rate to lower temperature and conserve power. The aluminum backplate of this XFX Radeon graphics card protects it while absorbing heat.

Fantastic Card
on November 30, 2017
Posted by: JonJon
Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a great card, I have been super impressed with the 3 I have so far. It seems that there is a mix of Hynix and Samsung memory in these. 2/3 of mine have been Samsung, the other had Hynix and I see about 3% worse performance out of it.
The fans and cooling on this are great. By default they let it run pretty hot but if you go in and turn down the target temperature in wattman it can stay cool with the fan running super quiet. It undervolts on the CPU well for less power consumption and sees almost 50% performance boosts by adjusting the memory straps and overclocking there.
This is a highly underrated card and a great price from Best Buy. I have been an Nvidia man my whole life, but this card has changed my mind.

Great HDR10 4K TV
on September 27, 2017
Posted by: JonJon
Verified Purchase:Yes
I picked up this unit about 4 months ago and have been very happy with it. There is a firmware update that turns on HDR10 support in the TV and it looks gorgeous now that I have the Apple TV 4K hooked up to it. I have had no issues with the picture quality and am very happy with it, the price can’t be beat either. The Chromecast is nice, but not for most people. They updated it to include a GUI with some apps but it is very limited. I would recommend pairing this TV with a Apple TV, Fire TV or Roku (4K versions). I am very happy after adding one of those rather than using chrome cast and the built in apps.
There are a few downsides that may be worth calling out:
-It takes an unusually long time to turn on (like 5+ seconds)
-The sound was a bit lacking and muffled when wall mounted. I got a 36” Vizio sound bar and am very happy now, nice volume control integration.
-This TV has 4 HDMI ports but only ports 1 & 2 support 4K video. Only port 1 supports HDR 4K.

Great wireless headset
on October 13, 2016
Posted by: JonJon
Verified Purchase:Yes
I love having a wireless headset for gaming and general use on the computer. It allows me to easily get up and move around and avoid cable tangling nightmares. It seems to have a great battery and works through several multi hour game sessions across several days as long as you turn the headset off when you are done. If you do drain the battery you can use it while plugged in without any trouble. The sound quality is great. The range is good and it works from about 2 rooms away.
The only problem I have had is that the red mute light ring on the mic seems to come on randomly even though the mic isn't muted. This doesn't seem to affect the functionality though and the mic still works/mutes normally.

Great product, gave old TV new life

This was a great purchase for an old TV. Using the RCA outputs I was able to breathe new life into an old TV in the guest room. Guests love streaming Netflix/HULU/HBO/Playstation Vue on it.

What brand memory is used (Hynix, Samsung, etc.)?

I have 3 of these cards. 2 are Samsung and 1 is Hynix. Seems to be luck which one you get. I see about 3% less performance on the Hynix card

My question is about power connection. Does it has only the 8 pin conector in the card or it has one 8 pin and one 6 pin toguether like other XFX cards? I need to know this before I buy it Thank you in advance

It has one 8-pin connector on the video card. It also comes with an adaptor to connect two 6-pin lines into the 8-pin on the card.

My head circumference is ~24.5 inches. A bit bigger than the average, but not massive. I've heard these are designed for people with large heads. My question is, will these fit me, or will they be over-sized for my head?

I have a similar size head and these fit me great.
