Great case!
Pros: The back of the case folds down and the MB tray can even be removed for the easiest installations I've ever done. Makes wiring a snap. Cooling is fantastic on this case as well and I love the fan located right on the graphics card position. There is also a hidden 80mm fan port on the motherboard side that blows directly on your drives.
Cons: The window has a bar on it that has an 80mm fan and the screwless tray that holds it can make it a real pain to use some of the larger cpu fans and graphics cards. The 110mm zalman cpu fan barely clears the space allowed. It does fit though. You will need to buy 1 80mm fan to have all fan slots used and two of the fans are not lighted so if you want all led fans you will have to replace them.
Overall Review: Great buy, plenty of room for most anything and almost everything can be removed and gotten to. I really believe that for the money this case is the most user friendly.
Great game.
Pros: Great game, good graphics and story. extra abilities can be unlocked as you play through so replay ability is high and highly entertaining. multiple endings dependent on choices.
Cons: Game is very glitchy and often kicks me out during gameplay. The story is a bit short though very good. Game requires internet activation and cannot easily be used at other locations i.e. a friends house.
Overall Review: Game would rate higher without online authentication requirement and restrictions on use at other locations, after all isn't it enough that you need the cd to play? Game developers need to figure out that people OWN the games they buy legitimately and should be able to easily use them on as many pc's as they own. I fondly remember the days when you could loan a friend a game without it being the end of the world.
update to sketchy
Pros: Looked Great.
Cons: Died in just under a year. All but one of the OCZ Power supplies I have purchased before (7 in all) died in under a year.
Overall Review: Response to my first negative review was to set up a claim ticket because they WANTED to replace my power supply. I did and was told I had to provide the old PS's and purchase info and serial numbers. I told them I had junked them because I don't do RMA's as a general rule and that I had only done a claim ticket at they're request. They wouldn't do anything for me after that without a return of the junk I no longer had. In short, I believe they want you to think that they care, but at the end of the day they play the same games everyone else does with lower quality. If you really care about getting a great product buy from a company that makes it right in the first place even if they aren't as willing to do returns so readily. Thermaltake and antec have never let me down once in over 10 years.
Best Vista...
Pros: Extended ram and cpu specs for 64 bit. I have had very few problems with newer game compatibility and websites. It is better than the 32 bit OS if you have the hardware to use it.
Cons: It's Vista. VERY annoying when it asks you if your sure all the time, can be turned off but then it bugs you about turning that off so you have to turn off security alerst. In short Vista is designed to drive us crazy.
Overall Review: If you want Vista then this is the one to have. It's still Vista which means it stinks but the speed on 64 bit is much higher depending on your hardware. My best friend has had nothing but trouble with ultimate edition so just get home unless you HAVE to have ultimate.
Great buy
Pros: Backlit keys. looks good. cheap. fairly beatable and the paint still looks good no fading. feels great to type on.
Cons: not free?
Overall Review: The lighting on this is great it's not so bright that it hurts your eyes or distracts you.
Good buy!
Pros: Does everything it says and has a nice little led on it.
Cons: none for the price.
Overall Review: There's no better way to fill a slot on your case for the money involved and who knows you might even use it :)
