whats sad is when you join here 3 days ago and decide you are cool enough to call people "dingleberries" that have been here WAY longer than you have, son.

Wow! 244 posts in three days is a hell of an average. (Just thought I'd point this out: Many high-post-per-day newbies tend not to last long here, as they don't take time to think about whether their posts are helpful in any way; therefore, they get on people's nerves with annoying posts, flame wars ensue, and the mods take notice--and action.)


Substance, not "'spice,'" is what people looking for help want.

I am new to this forum not new to pc troubleshooting. Im just offering my advice and if you read my posts I do not comment on what I do not know. I am trying to help people to the best of my knowledge. What is a misnomer is that because you have "diamond member" by your name and you have thousands of posts does not mean what you post is the advice one should take. Nick was quick to judge someone elses helpful OPINION and rude on top of that . Obviously he has an attitude problem, but thats his deal. This is a problem in itself and moderators should look at this as well. If you do read all my posts nagle you will see what I mean. Tx for your concern though gonagle :)

Nikao Ogre

I have that case and I built a comp for my friend and used an antec sonata. I like both of them, but most people recommend the sonata on this forum. It is by a name brand company and has excellent reviews.

Here is ONLY my "review" of the Ogre case, because i do not want to PRESSURE you into buying another case, I only offer you my OPINION.

It has a nice shiny finish to it, the skull in the front lights up blue and there is a hard-drive activity light in the forehead. There is a hidden front panel peripheral area in the "mouth" and it has mic, headphone, 2 usb ports and a firewire option. THe front door opens from right to left, and allows you to conceal your drives. The Case comes with a BLUE LED 120mm fan. The Side Window is premodded, and has a shuriken style fan gril. Behind the grill is a wire fan filter, and behind it is another blue LED fan with a CPU blower attachment on the inside, which allows cool air to blow directly on your CPU fan and motherboard.

Pros:
Is Sturdy, pretty good space on the inside, some good stock cooling and lighting features. Not too expensive.

Cons
Slot exhaust grill on the back, side sometimes hard to remove, does not come with power supply. Not tool-less. No removeable motherboard tray.

I would recommend this case if you like the looks, and want decent performance for the price. The antec sonata is a really well designed case with tons of good features, and I would recommend it too, it is well worth the money. I hope this was helpful for you, if you have any other question about these cases, just ask.

good luck with your build
