Are you tossing the 3000B on those issues? You must have an excellent budget :shock: What's your price for the case second-hand?

I-Star S-10000B - Could this be case of all cases?

At 40 lbs this case is a monster. But everything I read says "buy me".

Need case recommendation

Hello, I just received an Antec SLK3000B in the mail for my new PC. I bought it based on the fact that it's silentPCreview recommended and its pretty cheap. After examining it I have two issues.

Thanks and product review proposal

Hi All, I stumbled across silentPCreview while searching for a power supply for my socket 939 nF4 ultra board. Thanks to Mike C's review of the Sea Sonic PSU's, I just ordered an S12-430. Prior to that I never paid much attention to fan noise nor did I ever care (or know about) efficiency. I'm sure ...
