I had my brother in law get this case through this site for me as I did not have internet access at the time. I bought this case because of the blue lights, fan speed control, and digital temp read out. I'm running an Asus board with the Intel Lakeport 945 chip set and a 2.80 Ghz. dual core processor (Pentium D)and 1.50 gigs of RAM with room for more! It keeps pretty cool for the most part. I added a 5.25 inch drive bay hard drive dual fan cooler which keeps my main drive from overheating which was a problem before I added it. I cannot get over how cool this case made my computer look in the dark, best $60 I ever spent and oh did I mention this is a great beginner build?


solid buy

can't go wrong with this case. I bought it for my first complete build, air flow is solid, though i still popped in a 120mm fan in the fan. only problem is that i can't run the lcd temperature display and the fan controller at the same time so i have to choose one or the other. asides from that, this is a good solid case, that is really great for the price. best case for 80$ CAD


This case is great.

I baught this case to build my own system to upgrade from my 6 year old HP factory system and I have never built a compleat system before but this unit is great altho I had to download the instruction manuel to assist me in constructing it. I read that some of you are having problems changing the temp. readout from celcious to fareinhight..... if you remove the front pannel and look ad the back of the display there is a switch to change this to farenhight. I havent gotten my system compleatle built due to waiting on aditional componets but so far its great. Also if you are not sure about hooking up the fan controler I strongly sugest downloading the manuel which can be found on this page in blue as a pdf document. Happy building to all of you. If you have questions I may be able to help. 980-722-2330

What You Should Know
Assembling Barebones Computer Kits & Computer Cases
Remember when assembling one of our money-saving Barebone Computer Kits, or installing your existing computer components into a new computer case, you may have to modify the case to fit your components - This Is Normal!  Cases are designed to hold and accommodate a wide variety of motherboards, interface cards, connectors, and other components.  Because of this, the case manufacturer designs their cases with easily removable panels to allow these components to properly fit in the case.  All you need to do is punch them out with a screw driver or fold them over with a pair of pliers to snap out the metal piece for your exact components.  In this way, you save the cost of assembling your computer, and have the satisfaction of building your own workstation.

PLEASE NOTE:  Carefully read all documentation BEFORE you start to assemble your Barebones Kit or add components to a Computer Case.  Some components need to be assembled in a specific order.  Also place the components in the case temporarily to confirm any modifications (punch outs) that need to be made to fit that component.

Computer Case Buying Guide
Your computer case is the most visible and important parts of your system. It not only houses your internal components, but also protects your PC against heat damage. With so many different cases available on the market choosing the ideal chassis for your PC isn't always an easy process. Click on our handy guide to find 6 important questions you should answer before you buy your case.
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.

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 .
