Most Favorable Review

Awesome micro-ATX

EVGA P67 SLI Micro 120-SB-E672-KR LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
EVGA P67 SLI Micro 120-SB-E672-KR LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Great MB. I was able to overclock a 2600k to 4.2 GHz effortlessly. I could have gone higher, but I wanted something for 24/7. I really like all the features and the EVGA E-LEET software.

Cons: If you SLI two 2-slott Video cards, it will cover up some of the pins and the LED indicator. It wasn't a deal breaker for me.

Overall Review: - Core i7-2600K - G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series F3-17000CL9D-8GBXM - EVGA GTX 570 HD (running one at the moment, plan to buy a 2nd one for SLI) - Intel Intel 320 Series SSD - COOLER MASTER Silent Pro 850W

Cons: None

Overall Review: Sounds best when connected to a HD capable sound card.

Pros: I really like the lay out of this case. I installed a micro ATX Motherboard in it. Everything fit well. I like the looks of the case two. Looks very clean with no optical drives installed.

Cons: none

Overall Review: Lian makes an optional Top Cover w/ 140mm Fan hole. I installed it and I recommend anyone who gets this case get the optional cover for better air flow.
