Well, well look what the cat drug in today! Hello all and greetings from my hiatus. I am stopping in today to fulfill one of the two promised articles. Recently I had a chance to put a Chenbro Gaming Bomb Case through its paces.

You want to talk cases? Check out what I picked up on Saturday:
http://thermaltake.com/xaserCase/xaser3/v1000d.htm
7 fans in this sucker, and yet they make almost no noise. It's big, it's beautiful, and it's solid steel. Damn I love this thing!
on a side note, did you mean "Chenbro Gaming Boming Case" or "Chenbro Gaming Bomb Case" like the header? Thought because I'm gone you would be free of the spelling and grammar police did you? |

Well cooling for one, computer parts are hot little objects, and the better you can cool them, the longer their life. Also it matters on expandability, do you want something that has future growth? That's the reason I really like full-tower cases, but then again, their huge and often heavy. Also a case can actually have an impact on system performance, like how well is it shielded from interferance, more shielding, better performance. And then you have the obvious issue of personal taste, which all comes down to looks in the end really. I'm a big brushed aluminum or black person, so I tend to go with those options over the others available, but there are so many kinds out there to choose from that it really is up to you as to what you like. |

Yes, but only a frost-free fridge. Moisture kills. |
