That's no moon
Pros: Plenty of room Way more drive bays than you'll ever need Great airflow and cooling options Quieter than my laptop even with fans turned to max You can watch your fans spin and make racecar noises You can even fit your monitor inside it
Cons: The window brackets are strange and need to be adjusted with pliers for a snug fit I have no idea how to carry this thing
Overall Review: I just checked on the measurements for this thing and I can't honestly believe it's <2" tall. This thing is massive. Rarely (never) have I made a computer purchase and thought "I may have overdone it" but there's a first time for everything. Beyond that, it's an amazing tower and they really took the time to manage the fan cabling so that you just plug in a 4-pin molex and off you go. Managing the rest of your cables is a breeze as well. Only real issue is during shipping a couple of the window brackets were broken off, but that's no fault of the manufacturer. A 5-minute plier job was enough to keep the window in securely for my purposes. It looks silly with a uATX motherboard inside it. 5/5 would buy a small vault again
Avoid
Pros: It briefly gave me wifi
Cons: It got very hot It stopped working within 2 weeks
Overall Review: Get a Rosewill RNX-N180UBEv3 - Wireless High Gain N300 Wi-Fi Adapter instead.
Fills up too hecking fast
Overall Review: I've filled it halfway and it's only been 2 days Why am I like this
It's thermal paste
Pros: It works for whatever you apply thermal paste to.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Would recommend, didn't know it was an older release. Will probably just use mx4 in the future, but it's a good buy for budget.
Did the job
Pros: Keeps my cpu nice and cool. Rarely climbs above 60º C Not noisy. Colorful!
Cons: It's hueg. Like, massive. I wasn't sure it would even fit into my case. Slightly blocks ram slots, but as I have OEM ram, I was able to get it in and out okay RGB options limited to presets, which doesn't even include pink. Tucking the inline controller somewhere it won't fall down/into a fan was a fun exercise.
Overall Review: I'm running an FX-8350. I know, I bought it in 2016. As of late the stock cooler wasn't doing the job, and I was hitting thermal throttle when playing BF1, and occasionally in Rainbow 6 Siege as well. Ever since I slapped this sucker in, I haven't had a single problem. Would recommend, despite the nitpicking above.
If you're smart enough to make toast...
Pros: Slipped right in Worked right away
Cons: None
Overall Review: Would recommend for under $20 price point.
