Lightweight Aluminum!
The all new Aluminus lightweight aluminum case is in a class by itself when it comes to dazzling looks and phenomenal performance for a wide range of systems. As its name implies, the Aluminus has been crafted using the finest, most durable lightweight aluminum on the market. And it includes a large innovative clear side panel.

Incomparable Compatibility
Why buy a computer case that doesn’t give you a wide selection of compatibility choices, when you can purchase the Aluminus at an incredibly low price? This sleek chassis makes a perfect fit of all the leading motherboards. AT, Baby AT, ATX and Micro ATX…it fits virtually all motherboard sizes, and the removable motherboard tray makes installation easy. There's plenty of room to grow with its seven (7) expansion slots. The front swing-out bezel and drive bay covers can be locked for security. The side panel, drive bays and motherboard tray all feature hardware that allow for easy and tool-less removal and installation.

Optimize Your PC's Airflow
Good looks, superior expandability and incredible compatibility don’t make a great computer case. What puts the Aluminus at the head of its class is how easy it allows the user to route cables behind drive bays allowing for better airflow within the case. Cables can even be hidden underneath the large "Ultra" drive bay cover, keeping them out of the way of airflow... and out of sight! CPU cooling and VGA cooling vents keep the air flowing coolly and effectively to preserve the integrity of your components within the most productive, heat-producing systems. The Alumnus also includes a 120 mm fan bay for even more cooling power.

V-Series ATX Power Supply
This new V series power supply offers more connectivity choices than the typical power supply, with options for 20/24 pin motherboards, SATA and PCI Express connections. This durable, high-performance power supply features a low-noise 120mm cooling fan. It supports AMD and Intel motherboards and includes short circuit protection, in-rush current protection and thermal overload cutoff protection.

Ultra Aluminus, the showcase of your extreme gaming or power computing system.

Ultra Lifetime Warranty
To ensure your complete satisfaction, all Ultra Products Power Supplies and Cases now carry a three year warranty that they will be free from defects in materials or workmanship. In addition, that warranty is upgradable to a LIFETIME warranty by simply registering online. At Ultra, customer service is our most important mission. That’s why every Ultra product must meet the highest industry standards for quality and reliability. And our warranty program is second to none.

Bought this when it came with a power supply, great value if you're just looking for a good case to fit EVERYTHING in. I had a few issues with this one though. The front door/cover feels like it'll break off if someone gets rough with it. The Mobo tray is a real pain to get back in after mounting an EVGA 780i with the Ultra ChillTEC CPU cooler. The front panel cover also keeps bay devices that stick out from being flush-mounted. The CPU cooling fan mount and hole in the clear side doesn't have an option to block it off for better air flow. It's large case that doesn't fit into Full ATX category for some reason. It fits the new NVidia GTX cards easily. Cable management is easy if you use all extra space arounf the HDD rack and Mobo tray. I didn't have to make any special mods to it for anything I installed.

This case is great, definitely not a mid-tower case by any means. I used to PSU that came with the case and it worked flawlessly. This case is definitely worth the money. My only complaint is the rails for the optical drives were kinda frustrating but nothing reading the manual cant fix =D

Pretty decent case, I have A LOT of trouble closing the side door with the clear display. It wont stay on its tracks properly. Besides that, its a very sturdy case, even the plastic that makes the swing doors in the front are well built and sturdy. The reset button is also hard to hit, I have to use a pen to hit it, but how often do you really use that button anyway?

Really, a great case. When I ordered this case I knew what I was getting, and that was really well built case. I remember that it came 3 days later, and when I opened the box, I just couldn't believe how huge it was, and it was so light, yet so bold yet so simple looking which is what I liked about it. It fight everything I put in it pretty well; an Asus P5N-D, a PC Power and Cooling 750w PSU, a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10, a LG H2N DVD-ROM drive, 2 120 MM fans, and with a bit of effort and a rearrangement a dual-slot, 11 inch long EVGA Geforce 9800 GTX+. Even though I had to kind of twist the EIDE cable for my DVD Drive, that was just a minor technicality which is really nothing. I have to say it is a 5 out of 5, really great case, I will buy from them again, and a friend of my also likes this case. But it was alot cheaper without the PSU, which was around $89.99

Got Enough Memory? Bet You'll Need More!
Windows Vista and today's software applications make much greater demands on your system's memory. Adding peripherals, like webcams, USB hard drives, and complex Internet pages, all take memory. Watching DVD movies, or watching videos on the web, or playing PC based games demand increased memory. So take full advantage of your system's potential, your operating system's enhancement and entertainment capabilities, and your software's productivity by expanding your system memory!

The best time to add more memory is when you buy your system! Get the memory that's right for your computer, whether laptop, desktop, or All-In-One. Click Here for our Memory Upgrade Options. »

Shared Memory? Or Where Did My Memory Go?
Your computer uses memory to run your Operating System, applications, peripherals, and to generate and display graphics on your computer monitor. Video memory is a form of RAM, and is either built into your motherboard; or on a graphics card (video card). Depending on the motherboard's configuration, and that of the video card (if separate or built-in to the motherboard), your computer may have to draw on its own RAM memory to meet its video memory needs. This creates shared memory, where your computer’s RAM will be shared between its own Processor (CPU) and its graphics chip.

The result is that some systems will have shared memory, some will not. If you have 2GB (for example) of system memory installed, you may notice that your system reports significantly less memory. This is because your system is using shared memory for your video.

What can you do about this?
You can actually configure this shared memory through your computer’s BIOS settings. However, this is a setting best left alone, since it is typically optimized for display performance, and making changes may impact display resolutions, and other video capabilities.

The simplest solution is usually to either: increase your system memory; or to upgrade the video hardware. By upgrading to a new video card with built-in video memory, then turning off shared memory, you will free your system to use it's maximum potential memory, and provide your system with much more robust video features.

Click Here for our Memory Options » Click Here for the latest Video Cards »

How Much Memory Do You Really Have?
When you look at the specifications for a computer, it will display the installed memory, and typically the maximum memory that can be installed. However, while these are real values, they represent a potential useable memory depending upon the installed operating system, and other factors. The actual useable memory may be different (lower) from these values. The reason is simply that a computer may have a limitation in the operating system (such as Windows 32 bit versions), or configured to use shared memory, which reduces the amount of RAM that is available to the CPU by using some of it for other purposes, such as for video memory. In some cases, you can control the maximum useable memory through system settings, by upgrading from a 32 bit to a 64 bit version of Windows XP or Vista, or by upgrading to a video card that has internal onboard video memory.

But always remember, that the amount of memory that your system reports, is not always the amount of actual installed memory. For example, if you have 4GB installed, 32 bit versions of Windows will typically report 3.2GB due to a limitation of Windows itself.  Also note that different Windows programs report available and maximum memory differently, which can be confusing. If you find that you need more memory, we suggest expanding your system memory, since this is the most effective performance increase, and the one that is easiest to perform .
