It's BIG!
Pros: Plenty of room to build, well designed,overall a great case. Ultimately set up for hardline liquid cooling, but can be used for old school builds. Lots of glass to show off your wiring skills.
Cons: This thing is a beast. Comparable size wise to a mini fridge(college dorm fridge). Make sure you got the space. Tempered glass is nice but makes this thing heavy, definitely not a LAN party setup lol.
Overall Review: Originally when I bought this case, I saw pictures everywhere with the multi fan controller in the images, I assumed(I know,I know) it was included with the case. I should have known better. Easy $50 fix though. If you are buying this behemoth, it's for all show so why skimp on parts/ eye candy.
Windows 11 Pro??
Pros: It came with a Key for Windows
Cons: Where do I begin... We moved the start button...why...*shrug* We added lots of stuff for you to buy....no thanks Onedrive...do I need to elaborate? I need more bloatware in my life like I need another hole in my head...
Overall Review: Is anyone gonna ever give us an alternative? Am I stuck using this for the rest of my life now? Protip: Win7 will get ya 11...just sayin...
Samsung, pretty standard
Pros: It's fast for sure...
Cons: It's a Samsung...the innovators of so much tech...you'd think with the overhead Samsung has, we would be blowing people away with load times...but it's becoming pretty standard.
Overall Review: I remember being the first kid on my block(online) with a Samsung SSD playing Battlefield...I would be cappin' a flag before those 7200 rpm goofs even got in game... Let's go Samsung...time to kick in up a notch again...
Good stuff
Pros: It is doing good keeping my CPU nice and cool, I use an AIO also but im sure it is helping!
Cons: None yet
Overall Review: I never use as much as I buy...even the small ones end up in a drawer...wish it was edible...
Fast AF
Pros: This thing is fast....really fast
Cons: very delicate...but its a CPU
Overall Review: Call me a fanboy if ya want but I have been rolling with Intel since I got my first emachine and it had a celeron that blew away my K2 buddies in Counterstrike when it was a beta for Half-Life...lol yes I'm old. When I used to use AMD I had so many BSOD it wasn't even funny. I've been from single core to my current (24 cores...good lord) and for gaming...I'm an Intel guy...sorry AMD'ers
My old standard...
Pros: It's white... It lights... It's alright..
Cons: I need iCUE to control just my ram...yuck
Overall Review: Corsair has been my RAM of choice since I started building and have never disappointed. I've had systems run Dominator for over a decade and the RAM never faltered...I will never use anyone else...fanboy much?? lol
Delivery took awhile
Normally ordering through NewEgg is a quick ordeal but this seller took about a week and a half or so to get my product out to me. I realize everyone is shouting Covid-19 but that initial wave is long gone and nobody other than bars and restaurants closed honestly. Could've been faster. Also the box was crushed on one corner when it got here.....UPS ignorance though I'm assuming.
