Pros: Works like a champ on my E8600.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Great OEM replacement but not for SFF
Works Fine IF
Pros: Copper Base, 92mm Fan.
Cons: Does NOT work properly out of the box. You MUST clean off their thermal patch and apply your own thermal paste/grease or expect a meltdown ! 3 pin fan but I knew that when I bought it.
Overall Review: I shouldn't have to spend more money on my own paste for a NEW CPU Fan. It should work out of the box AS SPECIFIED. The person at Rosewill argued with me that it worked out of the box as specified. WRONG !!! It wouldn't even keep a X2 4200 under 70c which kept shutting down the machine it was in. Once I applied my own paste after cleaning theirs off, temps went down to 38c where they should be.
LOL You got it upside down rookie !
Pros: This is what separates engineers from technicians. The picture of the device installed is upside down, place the vents with the 2 showing pipes to the back NOT the front as pictured in instructions. (Should be anyway, you blow hot air out not back into the box) I have Corsair XMS3 on it and I can shine a flashlight through the clearance. Looks like a B.A.M.F. ! LOL Newbs
Cons: Its running a FX-6300 95w at 95*F in open air so I wouldn't go over 95w
Overall Review: This thing is worth every bit of $20, has every RBG connector. Place the 2 pipes with vent towards back, use normal size or low-profile ram, heatsinks ok like normal XMS but no fins like say an ELK. If in doubt, go low profile Kingston which has room for screwdriver.
Pretty Nice
Pros: Honestly the nicest drive case I've had in my hands that wasn't metal.
Cons: Maybe 2nd zipper but that's just me.
Overall Review: If you're a nomad tech this thing is awesome. Plenty of room for other stuff too, I put 2 drives in even.
Normal $35 cheap case
Pros: Cheap, has optic bay
Cons: They don't tell you it only takes a 90mm rear fan so don't plan on light through the acrylic sheet.
Overall Review: It's a normal cheapy $35 case so if you just need a box, go for it.
FREE !
Pros: Free after rebate with free shipping, that rocks !!!
Cons: As long as it posted, I was happy.
Overall Review: Went in a cheap build and worked fine out of the box. Lasted about 15 minutes in stock.
DOESN'T DELIVER
STAY AWAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I swear they shipped by teleporter
Got it 2 days after I ordered it (that's like 5 minutes vs normal newegg times). Product as described.
Nice Try
Seller had item listed in stock, charged me. Never shipped, told me "cause they lose money on it". Straight bait & switch as it was available from them at a higher price but not "my price". Held my money for over a week then refunded finally once Newegg told them to. Still took their sweet time on it.
