Dreadnought: Review of my DS Desktop 269940

This is my 2nd DS computer that I buy, the 1st one was purchased for my sister in law and the 2nd one for myself.
Took a little a bit over 3 weeks to receive my computer, from payment process to arrive to my house (west coast to east coast).
Costumer service is nothing but 110%, very helpful and knowledgeable about any questions you might throw at them.
The computer itself its nothing but total perfection from the specs that I chose, from wiring to benchmark testing.

@Conan,

Sorry about the delay, I've been extremely busy with some exciting new projects at Digital Storm.

I added a video card bracket to our shipping list, it should ship within 2 days from here.

I am also having our team move your thread to the "Customer Reviews" section.

WOW that side fan is sexy !!

Nice to hear
