I really like the look of a lot of their cases and they all seem to have a great feature set.
But there always seems to be one glaring thing on any of their cases that keeps me from instantly pulling the trigger. For example on the Air 240, there could easily have been a spot for a slim load...
Looks like their take (or is that ThermalTake?) on the Corsair Air 540. While I see why they moved the front fans to the right chamber (make it pretty from the front), it seems like you wouldn't get enough cooling for the MB itself. Note, I do see that you can put a radiator on the top, but...
How about this take, and there was a similar one last week: He could be there to report on it? He posted it on YouTube for the world to see. I bet many of you are big proponents of the 2nd Amendment, so how about the 1st? This is a government entity interfering with a free press. He in no...
I do like the comment about the simple V x A = W, so in a perfect situation on a 15A circuit, you could get 1500W throughput. I didn't see a response on the testing if you were putting it on a 20A circuit, or not.
I know you don't like the marketing, and I think you should dock it a bit for...
You may want to consider something like this for the PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151130
to help with the heat issues.
Kyle,
You gave me one several years ago when you came down to Austin to have us test out the Killer NIC cards. It is still going strong, but I am going to order another one for work. Can I get one in "Dell Blue"? j/k

Anyone remember how much more powerful the PS3 was supposed to be over the Xbox 360? 7-8 years later, after the devs have squeezed just about everything out, you'd be hard pressed to say one was better than the other. SGTGimpy is correct, while PS4 may be better on paper, MS has a lot of CPU...
I've been running mine (4220) for 3 years now, not a single issue. Also, from others here, if you do have a back-plane issue, they are pretty good at getting you a replacement.

I've had this system (Norco 4220) for a while (3/29/2010 - 3 years!?!), but wanted to upgrade from WHS 1 to 2, so I needed to move beyond DE and decided to jump into RAID. Since RAID is what I do a bunch at work, I don't have any hesitations there. So, I was looking at the Adaptec 51645 cards...
Just contact Norco Tech Support, and see what they can do for you (they may not charge you). Also, try to PM or look up "mike at norcotek dot com" here in the forums to see what he can do.

You guys need to go read your Constitution. It is illegal for a state to tax goods from another state. This is a state matter, not a federal one. So, when Amazon wanted to put a warehouse in Texas, it is now doing business in the state, and therefore the state can now levy a tax on those...
To me, it looks like a rip-off of the Cooler Master HAF XM, right down to the "militaristic styling" and their version of the X-Dock (which the XM has two on the front now).
I just rebuilt my system with one of these, going down (slightly) from the original HAF. The only thing I don't like...
Just an Idea, but make the top fan an intake, instead of exhaust. This will force cool air in that will feed the radiator and should cool the MB components a bit.

I am in the same boat. i7-920 on an EVGA Classified that's 3 years old, now. All I have had to do to keep up, is upgrade the video card, currently with a GTX570. I don't have any USB 3.0 devices, but I do have SATA3 SSD's that may benefit from a MB upgrade.

Now it is down to $199 AR. You can also get it at Circuit City (sister site) if TD taxes you:

Sorry about that. Power was shut down for the holiday weekend and the network guy wanted everything shutdown on Wednesday before we left, so.... Anywho, they are back up and chugging along.
Keith
I bought the last one from Big WIll. He's sold like 7 items, but with Amazon's protection, I think it's pretty safe bet. I will keep you updated.

Went on vacation last week to come back to my chassis being mostly down. Seems there was a network glitch, and possible some power related issues, as well (it has been getting to 104F, here).
All is back up, but it will take a few days for it to start showing regular points, again. I know...
Well, there is a new goal now: mmillion is ~15M points ahead of me at #15, world wide, and he is the top folding@evga person. Since I am producing ~1M PPD greater then him, I should be able to overtake him in ~15 days.
Just so you know, EVGA is complaining about the points nerf over in their...
Was just in a training class, and since I have mentioned that I use Dell products here, as per the FTC, I need to state the following:
Hi, my name is Keith, and I work for Dell.
