Awesome Case!

RAIDMAX AZTEC ATX-619WB Black/ Silver 1.0mm SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Foldout MB Computer Case
RAIDMAX AZTEC ATX-619WB Black/ Silver 1.0mm SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Foldout MB Computer Case

Pros: LOVE THIS CASE! I built my new rig in this case. Very easy to install anything. +The fold down Motherboard side is a Godsend! Loved that. +Came with lots of extra screws, HDD mount brackets (very easy to use), and a Motherboard speaker. +Huge window to show off my rig. +Awesome looking front cover (reminds me of Forerunner theme from Halo) +My HUGE heatsink (Thermaltake Spin-Q) fits just fine. +Lots of room for 2 optical drives and a 2-bay heat sensor/fan controller. +HDD bay detaches, side panels both fold down and detach. +Side case arm can get in the way... BUT, it also detaches, just pull up. +Side fans are EXTREMELY easy to install/remove.

Cons: -Cheap molex pins on the fans. One of them popped out, but you can just pop it back.

Overall Review: = Fans are okay. They keep my rig cool (37c-41c mobo temp). I installed an extra fan on the right side to get more air flowing. It lines up with the 2.5" bays which I thought was odd. The CPU stays cool idle at 36c and never above 42c but I think that is mostly due to the aftermarket heatsink. I bought the bundled Raidmax power supply (630w), haven't had a problem.

Pros: This is a great monitor so far. Absolutely NO dead pixels. (Which is a first in my monitor buying experience) Win7 64 looks great on this monitor at 1920*1080. Games look amazing (COD4, COD WaW, Crysis)

Cons: Very few cons. 1. The input select is wonky to get to. 2. I didn't buy 3 of these : (

Overall Review: Get this. It's big enough but not too big.
