    I've been away for a while, and just opened the case last week, but do the side panels on anyone's cases rise above the top of the top panel?

    12v/400mA vs. 3.4v/1200mA

    USB Portable Charger Problem

    Corsair HS1 USB Gaming Headset Review @ [H]

    Did you try the solution mentioned a few posts earlier? It did appear to work for me, so it may be a good idea to try if you like everything else about the headphones.

    Corsair SP2500 2.1 Speaker System Review @ [H]

    From what I have heard, getting that little logo on a product doesn't come cheap. Some companies are willing to pay for the testing and certification, others are not. This doesn't mean that sets without the logo are necessarily inferior.
