Great Bang for $$$$
Pros: Bought 20 of these mobo's to build 20 computers for my work. every single one booted on first try and all working like a champ. paired with i5 4430, 8 gbs of ddr3 gskill ram. everything running great!
Cons: The only things i didnt like was how the front pannel pins on the mobo where not labeled well. And they sent what looks like a folded up road map for setting up first time. Most of the time there is a thick book for help, trouble shooting, or a nice guide on where and what your mobo's pins are. Nothing big enough issue to drop rating for.
Overall Review: great piece of 50$ hardware, would give 5 star rating 20 times if i could
Good cooler no good mounting
Pros: Keeps my i7 3770k at 25 c easy.
Cons: Well i wish that it mounted to my asus maximus V extreme 1155 socket mother board. 3 out of the 4 holes matched up and i could not find any other mounting bracket in the package that would make it so. but with my ability to but stuff stuff together with what i got aka " i redneckriged it" it mounted fine until i cant contact corsair to get me the right mounting bracket.
Overall Review: would have gave 5 stars if i would not have had this problem. newegg states it fits 1155 socket boards as i can see it doesnt
Well Worth the Purchase
Pros: This thing is beautiful to look at. The front glowing ROG red led looks amazing. just looks complete sitting on my asus maximus v extreme. The water block combo is nice to have. going to add it to my custom water loop soon. runs really cool just on air. Runs all my games on ultra high details maxed out on 1920x1080. League of legend, elder scrolls online, mass effect 3, all look Amazing! I decided to trade out with my XFX 7970 which had horribles screen tearing, which seemed to be getting worse with each new driver update. was going to go with the new Radeon R290x . But they are never in stock and most of the time now pricier than a 780! and not to mention everyone says runs hott as hell! I was a total AMD fan boy. Nvidea has made me a believer.
Cons: Honey moon stage to soon to tell!
Wow.... just wow
Pros: This thing is just simply big and beautiful. I bought this to build my mom a computer for her photography business. by the time i finished putting it together I was completely jelous. Im using a cooler master HAF X and this thing puts the haf x to shame as far as room goes. You could to a water cooled loop with 4 way crossfire or SLI, 3 radiators and still have alot of room to work with. Next paycheck im getting my self this case. Sorry Cooler Master but im moving on.
Cons: The only con i have is the MOBO case header cords are really short. It almost didn't reach my ASROCK. If you had a full sized mobo like a ASUS MAXIMUS V Extreme. It would fit perfect.
Overall Review: This thing is only considered a mid sized case? Not even! it big!
Looks great performs well!
Pros: Got it for a great deal, the response time is very great. didnt think that would matter but I noticed after i used one of my older screens.
Cons: None couldnt find anything i wasnt happy with.
Overall Review: Wish i could afford 2 more
Looks Great, But building another Story
Pros: Looks great, big window to show off your tech. Big enough inside to use bigger graphic cards. got it for 50 $ cant complain about that.
Cons: When i read the reviews on how little room you have for cable management, I said " well it cant be that bad!" I admit i was wrong! you couldnt even fit a piece of paper behind that case! The second thing that drove me nuts about this case is it only comes with one fan! comes with the front blue led fan. was a big con for me when i built this rig. was using the stock AMD heat sink, also a mistake by amd, and after 1 hour of use my cpu fan was throttleing back and forth like crazy! temps where hott! the case was just not exhaling any air with one front fan. so i ended up getting a corsair h60 water cooler and another fan to put at the top of the case to circulate air. If you buy this case i recomend geting atleast 2-3 fans to help or you might fry your rig
