ACG Computer Technician Favorites
I often get asked for my recommendations about certain products or services that I use so I have decided to devote this page for just that purpose. Please let me know if you have any other requests for me or are looking for a product recommendation. I sometimes earn a referral fee when people purchase products through my referral links, but don't let that stop you. All products and services recommended here have been thoroughly vetted.

Gaming Computer Components
Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 - I first bought this card in 2015 and I love it now as much as I did then. This is a great card for gaming and it is still relevant for playing today's latest games. If you are interested in the 1070, give this one a try (EVGA GeForce GTX 1070).

EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G1, 80+ GOLD 750W - What more can I say in support of this gaming PSU than that it boasts a 10 year warranty and will power just about anything that you can throw at it?
