I am not sure if you all have noticed, but, we got some nice new information and pictures for:
 
- Cases
- Cooling Systems
- Modifications
 
 
You can view the details by clicking any of the links below the drop down. The ESA system is definitely a plus in my opinion.
 
Warm Regards,
Alex

the airflow diagram for the antec 900 and 950i are wrong =\ top fans are suppose to be exhaust, not intake.

When in July do you guys plan to start selling parts?
 
Id like to reward you guys for making a decent computer for me by buying a couple parts too....if its too late though ill just go though tigerdirect or newegg.
 
I like that you are getting rid of creative sound cards though. Id personally want an Asus SB over a Razer though. Hopefully youll get some of those in there. All this new crap though makes me wish i waited a month to buy mine....
 
lol i actually considered using the 30 day return saying I 'wasnt satisfied' and take the 15% restock hit, and just have you guys build a new computer with all the new stuff... plus an extra 1500 id have to spend on a computer...but oh well! haha.

Is the ESA system a software that you can tell to cool the system more, or are there any hardware installation involved?

Very nice.
 
But what happened to the MOBO choices!? There is now only one choice for Gaming Dominator Config.
 
Also, while appreciate the addition of Razer Barracuda to the sound card selection, I question the decision to remove X-Fi Xtreme Gamer.

To take advantage of the ESA software, your components need to be ESA certified.

They changed the base mobo for the gaming dominator to a DDR3 mobo. If you want to use a DDR2 mobo just select the bang for the buck system.

Probably because Creative has garbage driver support...
