Wow, I just checked reseller ratings, TD's ratings for March shot up.

yeah..I noticed that too. I think TD is taking a very big iniative to put the customers first now. I'm sure after all the complaints to the BBB about rebates and bad customer service they realized they needed to take a step forward to help their ratings some. Hats off to TD.

The Zalman is probably more quiet since that's what they specialize in, but the Ultras I've used have been quiet. If your case sits on the floor, you probably wouldn't notice it.

Both SVC.com and case-mod.com have good prices on UV lighting kits, if you need them.

Thanks OP. I picked a set up for myself. I just don't like the case though. Probably sell it and get a Cooler Master Praetorian Case Black - PAC-T01-EK.

Looks like OOS for me too. Was going to grab another for my Dad. Oh well, on to the next deal please! Can't wait to get mine. Hope the rebates under same name/diff address works. :p

Please update how your rebate status is every couple months if you could.
We could always use a few more members jumping on the anti-tiger bandwagon.
Tiger has finished there normal 6 month span of quiet, then hit all again with what looks like a good deal, only to be screwed over.
Repeat every six months like clockwork. (check back in archives).

I just filled out all 4 of my rebates online at OnRebate.com and selected payment via Paypal. I'll report back in about 4-5 weeks when the $$$ is in my account. ;)

The offers numbers are:

UL-1182
UL-1207
UL-1231
UL-1237

For a total of $110 back.

I'm with you - I've got a 470W Enermax Noisetaker I just picked up a few months ago.

Keep the Enermax PSUs as a backup (they have a 3-year warranty) or sell them and nearly pay for your total purchase! LOL.

Got mine the other day; putting new machine together and noticed the case is missing 4 of the drive rails :(

Would be nice if I got any form of manual for it too.

Nice case otherwise; Thanks all!
