Big & Sexy

This review is from: Thermaltake Armor+MX VH8000BWS Black Aluminum / Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Pros:
Big case... almost a full tower ... looks sexy ! Has lots of room but could be better if it had more space on the side cover for cable management. Also, If you have a Gigabyte Ga-x58 type MOBO you will not be able to use your bottom PCIe slot cause you run out of space and could get vid cards hot. And to answer one persons question about he CoolerMaster V8 .... I thought it would fit too... misses by 2mm ! SO.... I mounted the 230mm fan on the OUTSIDE of the case ! Still looks good... actually kind of meaner ... and can still use the fan !
Cons:
Cable management is kind of tough for a real clean look. Doors are kind of annoying sometimes. Top loves dust ! Wish it had a top exhaust fan for better cooling instead of just vents.
Overall Review:
This is my first case for my first build ! Rig: This ThermalTake Armor case.... I7-930 OC@4.0ghz. , Coolermaster V8 CPU fan... Corsair P128 SSD for operating system & programs... 2-1TB Samsung Spinpoints in raid 0 for storage, 2- MSI GTX-285's in SLI, Themaltake 850w Black Widow PSU, GA-X58A-UD5 MOBO, LG Blu-Ray drive, Asus DVD drive, AFT Kiosk card reader, Corsair XMS3 12GB 1333 RAM, HP 2709 27" LCD monitor Focus display, LG W236V 23" secondary monitor and a HT Omega Striker 7.1 Sound Card ! Have a AeroCool 2000 fan controller coming in tomorrow... that will make this system look SWEET ( and control my 4 case fans ) ! How is that for a guys first build ???
