Most Favorable Review

Great processor for your dollar

AMD FX-8370 4.0 GHz (4.3 GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ FD8370FRHKBOX Desktop Processor

Pros: I'm only hitting 45c average with the stock cooler. Not to bad, but it'll warm your room a bit. Runs with the r9 390 well. Everything is up to high or very high in graphics settings. Has run everything I've thrown at it so far.

Cons: I've seen it get as high as 53c under load.

Overall Review: Get a good case with lots of fans if you plan on using the stock cooler I have a 212 evo I didn't install so I might update if I chose to use the after market heat sync. I will update the review if I do end up installing my after market cooler.

Great case

Pros: -It's blue LED fans keep my room lit. Dissipates heat from my fx 8370 and r9 390 well. -Fans in the front can be moved to help you fit what you need to fit into your case. -Fan blocks also hold the hard drive slots, allowing for cooling on your drive (I guess?)

Cons: -No dust filter. I noticed that was something that some newer style cases are going with

Overall Review: My usb 3.0 slots on the front are not working, I suspect it's due to a driver issue since my motherboard 3.0 slots do not work either. Would recommend this case
