My Review (as promised

I was able to finally get home and give my new rig a decent run. I find it funny the air coming out of the pc is cooler then the air in my apartment currently, Everything about it, down to the look and cleanliness of wires inside, is easily the best product ive seen in a long time. Everything runs so smoothly on every game i play on high settings. I was able to test it in WoW, LOTRO, and Fallout 3 and SC2. There was little to no noticable fps (if not looking at meter) loss in combat or atmosphere changes. Also I have to note and commend the customer service. Every time Ive called with a question, I wasnt treated like just another call to hang up on quickly, i was treated like THE call. Every email was actually answered, i dont think any even took 5 business hours either. Frankly after reading about many companies before buying from digital storm, im glad i listen to my friend and looked in to DS. By far the best computer experience ive ever had. I cant wait till my wife gets her laptop!

Nice!!! Congrats! Mine will be here Monday......So I still have a longgggggggg weekend ahead, I'm with cory I like the green/blue combo lookin' good!

To be honest, I was worried that the fans were gonna be extremely loud. While they make some noise, its not as bad as some have led on. Granted they a performance fans, its nice to know they are in and working. Its helping keep cool but really the led was more for look and desire then need. If you don't mind a little extra noise I think its worth it. And if you want to get interesting colors get the lit up.

I give the fans 9/10 until I can get accurate comparison to the original chasis fans.

Congrats on the rig, it looks great...!

Originally posted by Heathenson BTW i got the first level h20 cooling, does that need to have its liquid replaced or is that sealed? anyone know?

If you got either the Asetek or the Corsair, then nope, you don't have have to replace the liquid as it is a sealed system.

Edit: Just looked at your pictures again, yessir, your system is sealed and good to go.

Haha, yep, that tends to happen after the initial disbelief that you actually have such a beast starts to subside 

Originally posted by Heathenson Yea, it looks like all fans (except the door fan) was replaced with the upgrades

wait what? so your side panel still has the 200mm fan? so then what did they change? the top fan got replaced by 2 x 120mm led and I guess the exhaust fan too, but what else?
