KILLER ATX CASE

can't logon as my username. so i have to use my other..(006agent)

the powersupply is mounted on top, not sideways...(better for heat dissapation.)

the front comes off i think.

and yes they took my paypal..gotta love it.
 
If the power supply is not "Athlon Approved" will it still work with my 1.2 ghz ??? I have already ordered this thing and now I may be stuck with it if it doesnt work on my Athlon. What are the consequences of using an non approved PSU ??? Will it mess up my board ???? I need to know whether or not to try to cancel this order. Thanks for the help.
 
they said it is approved for "2.03 300W UL (Latest ATX Standard Power Supply) HIGH-QUALITY Power supply GUARANTEE Support 1.13Ghz CPU " i am sure you will have no prob. man. i am running my duron oc'd to 1050. if it will go you athlon will.
 
no prob...i am back and alive. da*( hard drive...oh well. yup these puppies are killer.
i might like mine, buy i am not gonna rave anymore..i think they are cool. and good for you too. hehe.
 
I bought 2 of these cases with the 300watt ps, the case is very nice, heavy and easy to work in, drive rails make it easy to install & remove drives, paint is thin and chips easily. Now for the bad part, both 300 watt ps's died withinn 24hrs of use, i'm waiting for them to replace them. One 300 watt had a 300watt label stuck over the 250watt sticker.
 
I bought this case a while ago for my friend and... w/o dremel tool, I wouldn't have been able to install the floppy!!! I had to drill new set of holes in the rails for the floppy to match the front opening 🙁

 
I help a friend build a thunderbird system in this case w/ 300W PS. He also has 512MB of ram and a Hercules 3D Prophet Pro in this thing. Power did not seem to be a problem. Everything is on rails (definitely a plus). I did not have any problems installing the floppy drive (certainly didn't have to drill holes).

Quality of construction is decent. There are a couple of oddities with the faceplace. It sticks out on the sides a little, and you can't remove the side panel without taking off the faceplate.

Not bad for the price.
 
Kappo/All,

I checked the site Kappo posted www.electroseller.com.

They have a some good prices on their 300W cases AND shipping is reasonable. I was wondering if anyone had any experiences with the cases on their webpage.

I have been spending hours scouring the web for my new computer components and as far as a case goes, after reading reviews etc. I have decided to not pay less BUT not pay BIG bucks either and I am going for the ANTEC SX830 which comes with a highly rated Antec 300W PS and fans - - - BEST price with shipping that I have found is EMS Computing Storefront, it was around $93 shipped fm FLA to OR. The Fong Kai cases are very well thought of too - also - - InWin makes some special cases specially designed to dissipate heat.

Good LUCK!
 
I have a Iwin and Antec 300w case, both of those case kill ass. I filled all the 5.25" slot, 2 burner, 1 dvd, 1 zip, 1 temp control, 1 extra.
