Testing + Conclusion


To give you an idea of the airflow in the case I decided to install the test system I used for my Alpha PAL8942 vs Swiftech MCX4000 comparison with the standard Intel cooler on the CPU.

The Specs:
- P4 1.8A + An Asus P4B533-E RAID
- Apacer PC2700 512Mb
- Radeon 8500LE
- 3Com 10/100
- Quantum HDD

I compared system and cpu temperatures, one time with the CPU clocked @ default speed with only 1.5v vcore. The second time with the CPU running @ 2700Mhz and a vcore of 1.7v. The "No Case" results were, as you might have guessed taken with the system NOT in a case (Picture), resulting in the CPU having cool air available all the time.

The results pretty much speak for themselves :

This case provides not only great looks, but also has great performance! It is excellent for LAN usage and ideal for next to your Hifi. I had a great time reviewing this case, a no hassle experience with this pre-modded beauty!
On a scale of 1 to 7 I give this baby a 6! :)
