I want to buy this case but wanted to ask the "experts" what their opinions were before I bought it. I think it looks pretty nice.....

In the words of Camel Toe Joe, "I'd hit it."

Um... I mean, whatever Sir Loin said.

It looks cool but is it cool for your CPU? I noticed three fans, one front/bottom, one side, one back under the power supply. The side and back look fine but I bet the front intake fan does not do much. It looks like it is partially blocked by the front cover. A well ventilated case will help keep you temps down.

My 2c,

whats that on top of it?...is it impregnated?

Its a carrying handle.

I'm picky when it comes to my cases. They have to be just right.

I personally wouldnt get this case just for the lack of fans alone, 1 intake and 1 exhaust isnt enough for me. I have 4 total in my case ( 2 intake and 2 exhaust ) and wouldnt go lower.

For 30 bucks though its not bad.

Are you going to use the PSU it comes with?

by **Bullhead** » Tue Jul 20, 2004 11:27 am

1. never heard of 'em. dunno about quality.

2. They use their own brand of PSU, which I've definately never heard of, so it's liable to be a POS or not really put out anywhere near the 400watts it claims.

3. doesn't have a removable motherboard tray, which is a godsend when doing upgrades.

4. For a non-overclocked pc, the fan placement is great. Problem is, as Jeffro pointed out, the front intake fan is gonna have to pull air from below the front panel, and if your computer sits on the floor, it's gonna suck up dust, hair, etc and clog constantly.

5. Internally, the layout is good, like all the drive bays.

I'd not hit it, but then again I've got a Lian-Li PC71 full tower alum case, which is dead sexy.....

I have a 350 watt in the case I got now... If I don't like the one it comes with then I'll just use this PSU.

by **WDPsellout** » Tue Jul 20, 2004 1:16 pm
