Forget about games
Pros: The only computer game I play is solitaire. Instead, I maintain a basement of dedicated machines running Stanford's Folding At Home and one box with a pair of these and a decent C2D CPU are pumping out results (and points) like there's no tomorrow. Everyone else will tell you how they do with games but, if you're in it for science, these cards are the price/performance sweet-spot now and for the immediate future.
Cons: Size and power demands are downright silly.
Designed by a builder.
Pros: Easy access, good layout, quality cooling. To say nothing of it being a flat-out gorgeous case.
Cons: Interior layout could be better. Stuff a four-disk SATA RAID array, a pair of DVD RAM drives, and a few other odds and ends in it and things get <b>really</b> tight.
Overall Review: If you're not going to pack it to the gills, this case totally rocks. Switch, connector, and LED cabling is consolidated into standard harnesses, thank goodness. If you have something offbeat, it all breaks out into individual connectors. Whoever designed this case had actually assembled computers.
