larger than it looks
Pros: Best airflow case design I have seen All the messy cables are hidden Reserved look and feel Quality of construction 2 hot swap bays for 3.5in drives
Cons: Front panel header cables are too short I wish the included fans were PWM Size - it really is a very wide case (>1.5x normal cases) Window on the side Only 2x 3.5in bays, 4x 2.5in
Overall Review: This is the cleanest PC build I have done. Having the PSU in the second chamber means all the cabling which is both messy and restricts airflow is hidden and just pops through holes to the main section where needed. This is better executed than the over/under cases such as the antec p180 series, and means there is plenty of room to put everything in. My main gripe is the cables for power switch, led's etc is not long enough to route correctly with my MB. Corsair's help ticket system won't accept the case part number.
Good cheap card
Pros: Quiet, drives 2560x1440 display, cheap, does not require extra power
Cons: Takes up two slots.
Overall Review: I bought this to complement an existing card so I could drive a 2nd 27" display. My primary card can probably drive both using DVI + display port, but for $40 after rebate, this seemed like a good option. Its quiet enough that I can't hear it over the other fans, all of which were selected to be pretty quiet.
