I have those fans in my Cosmos 1000 and they aren't that great at pushing or pulling out air.

is that case really worth the price?

I'm debating on that case now... I ended up picking up a mobo for that other build since I have no fucking clue when I'm gonna get that SLI mobo I ordered USPS is slow as shit. So now I will have my current mobo to myself and I'm thinking about doing a media center setup down the line.

I think I got it for like $140 in store and yes it's worth every penny this is something that doesn't get replaced for a VERY long time. The case is built like a damn tank and it's very spacious and easy to clean.
Yikes those are some shitty reviews. Personally I have all WD Caviar Blacks in my systems. I have had zero issues with them. Zero issues with my two 150gb Velociraptors either. I am a WD man.
39.99 for a tb drive though is tempting.

yeah, but the case would be more expensive than the rest of the parts for the computer combined. :yikes:
well, okay, just cpu, mobo, ram, and hd combined. i reused the case, ps, and dvd drive.

Wait wut? The stuff that is in my 1000 is not the recent stuff I ordered. I easily have a $800 build in my case. It's not really that expensive considering what is being put into it. If you buy the case and put a microatx board a 500W PSU 1 HD and a tiny video card then I'd be slapping myself over it :lol:.

i opted for the samsung f3, though i paid almost double, $76 for 1tb, though it did come with a dock.
well, if you get it, don't forget 12% bcb.

:lol: yeah, if you have $800, then it's not bad to have a $140 case. oh and my psu is 235w with 8w on the 12v rail. good thing i only have a 65w cpu. :lol:

Yeah that's the whole thing I have a big system so it made sense to get a case that's built like a tank and not a $30 case. I figured I had the money to spend so I might as well invest in a good case.
The Antec 300 will be my $30 small build case... When I have money I will be replacing my proc and memory and toss them into the Antec with the mobo I am replacing. Then get myself a hexa-core or a higher clocked quad, 6-8GB of memory and a bigger PSU maybe 1000W or more for my main rig. That's the plan for now.

you could've gotten a hexa-core plus mobo for under 2 bills.

Not looking to go hexa-core right away. Gonna wait it out until they roll out with more procs wanna see how they go first. Hell I might end up just doing my first Intel build for once. I've been with AMD since the 939, but I started off with a P3 back in the day.
