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.

This is an amazing case. I have a Q6600 Quad, 2GB of RAM, and 2 SLI'ed nVidia 9600's in the case and it fits without much clutter. The airflow is good but the air from the front fan doesn't make it very far past the hard drives so it doesn't really help cool much. The one thing I didn't get though is that there were supposed to be 2 120mm fan ports without any fans yet there was only one port that didn't have a fan (the exhaust fan was already on). Just doesn't make sense to me, I would love another fan to keep my temps down. Otherwise, a great buy.

I recieved this tower about two weeks ago and this thing is HUGE! I was frying my video cards do to excessive heat in my old case but not in this one. My temps have drop alot. Of course when I recieved my case it was a damaged a bit but nothing that I would worry about. I am currently running a Asus M2NBP Mother Board with an AMD 3800 X2 overclocked by 3%. 2 Gigs of Ram with 1 360 gig, 1 160 gig and 1 80 gig hard drives. I now have a Palit Nvidia Geforce 8800 GT with 1 gig of memory which I bought with the case. Awsome card!!
But anyways I would recommend this case to anyone. Well worth the Money!!

This is a nice case. The construction seems a little flimsy, but that's do to light weight materials, this thing is extremely light. The only problem I've seen so far is the front door tends to hit the eject button on my DVD drive if I don't close it very easily.

This casse is awesome, the drive bay system has rubber boots for vibration. I have 4 500gb hard drives in a raid 0+1, 850 watt power supply, 2 SLI 8600 GT Video Cards, 8gb ddr2 6400 ram, thermaltake liquid cooler, AMD x2 5000 dual core over clocking. It was a little tight getting in the cooler. Great case for the price.

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.

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 .
