So here is my review of my Digital Storm experience. A quick side note, anyone who lives overseas or like myself is in the military stationed overseas that is thinking about ordering from DS, I recommend this review to you. Here are the specs for my system:
PROMOTIONAL LIMITED TIME
BONUS DISCOUNT: $500 1 MISC Ek block for X58
CLASSIFIED By: James 10/16/2009 1 MISC 360 Radiator By: James
10/16/2009 Here are the contents of Box #2 After I reinstalled the hardware and cranked it up... In the end, if you find yourself in a similar situation as myself, and you can handle a lengthy wait (which is really because of the Military Postal System), than I absolutely recommend giving DS a shot. I want to thank DS again for this monster and for quickly reaching a solution to get this very heavy system to me, on the other side of the ocean. |

Just curious, but what difference will that make? Thats the slot it was in when I received it.

with the sound card in the wrong slot, you now slowed your bandwidth in half for your GPU..

That Hailstorm is one big case for sure. I would imagine the airflow is great.

Thanks. I like it. I just keep it on automatic. The only thing I wish I could change is the temperature unit from celsius to fahrenheit. But I've gotten used to it now.
