any computer geeks in da house?

It will run hot. If you use a good liquid cooling system with it you will be fine.

How do you figure .. the whole case is open ... with basically a house fan blowing down on everything.

wait .. were you just being a smarty pants?

Nope i red some reviews online about it. Says it runs hot because the fan is not centered right.

you could just keep it out in the open instead of in a cabinet at it would be fine

I don't know anything about the core i7's, but I have always preferred AMD processors to Intel. It just seems like the computers I've had with AMD's have preformed better for longer than those I've had with intels.

AMD's are crap lately. 3 years ago they were the best, but intel is outdoing them. :/


As for the case, I think it is interesting, but Dust might get really annoying XD
As for cooling, it should cool fine, you can always get a few extra fans. Or have a normal fan blowing across it.

Really? I haven't dealt with a new computer in the past few years, but that has always been the case.

Yeah ... Intel is sticking it to AMD ... hard.

CPU temps are not the greatest, but I am not going to use the stock cooler .. though I am limited to something that will fit under the fan. GPU temps are great in the case from what I have seen, and AI am excited about that!

I dunno, I needed something that is easy to take to LANs but will hold the serious equipment I need to be in it. This case looks awesome, and will hold all of my components. What most reviewers hate about the case are the HDD hangers that attach to the side, but that is what has me most excited.

I store a lot of stuff, and the truth is I don't need to carry my Music, and movies, and game updates, and ... everything to the LANs I go to, so when I need to go mobile, I will detach the storage drives, and cary the rest to the LAN.

It will take some time to build with this though, cable management will be hell, but I like doing that sort of thing. I think of it as a challenge, and I love prove my boss wrong when he sees how awesome my wire skillz are.

I am a nerd.

I prefer Lian Li's cases , but that looks interesting.

Later this year I'll probably be build a new i7 Core computer.
