Talons, Jaguars and Victors - where do you stand?
Even though the Talons sounded very tempting with their sealed form factor and mostly passive cooling, I was adamant about not using them in 2013 since they were new, and I had no idea how well they'd hold up.
Early adopters of the talons, hold-outs, opponents and proponents: as the season nears it's climax, where do you stand on the talons now?
Have they proven their mettle? have they earned you respect? and the ultimate test: will you use them in 2014?
