Case is terrible. Non painted interior with zero cablemangement and no tool-less features. A $50 HAF 912 / Zalman Z9 ( even cheaper on sale ) is far superior.

The AM3+ board has to go along with the AMD 8150. The 2500k crushes it in every single way possible.

2500k + Hyper 212 cooler + MSI Z77 G43.

Grab a PSU that is of quality. Newegg / NCIX also has some superb deals going around. Really can't beat this HIVE unit for $70.

Drop the useless fans and get a bigger and presumable high resolution monitor. No point in having a nice rig and looking at such a small screen. Try looking for an IPS panel.

Thanks for the reply but the case actually has a painted interior which is red, and it also has tons of spots for cable management. And thanks for the psu recommendation, my psu went out and I had to send it back

You're right now but I am not totally wrong.

You see, there are two versions to this case - a cheaper one with blue LED's and a more expensive one with red LED's. It just so happens that you were talking about the more expensive one whilst I was looking at the cheaper one. Oh well. I still would not recommend that case over a cheaper Zalman Z9 / HAF 912, but if you want it, get it.

Everything else I said should really be changed.

Yeah I know I was just looking for reviews on it, I already built it and I like it but I'm eventually going to go with a Intel cpu.
