Question about FK320ATX

Hi,
I'm about to buy FK320ATX from directron.com,
but I'm confused with the option either to
choose I/O shield with audio or the one
without audio.
Can anyone tell me the difference between
the two ?

thanks
 
I know that my board, the Epox 7kxa, has built-in audio on the board and audio connectors on the back. These 4 connections are located at the bottom end of the I/O shield. If your motherboard has these, then yes you need the shield with audio.
 
I ordered the same case, and got it with a white blanding, and theI/O shield with audio, was already included, so now I have two...

I don't need them both, but payed 3 more...

Oh well nice case, can advice it and would buy it again...
 
You only need it if your motherboard incorporates onboard audio, like an Intel 810, I think.

If you use a separate sound card you sholud not need it, although if you have the connectors on the mobo it may get in the way of a blanked metal plate
 
thanks for all your reply.
I opted to buy the one with audio shield,
due to advice from some of you.

Thanks, I really appreciated the response.

 
you almost always get the audio shield automatically with the case nowdays.It is probably not necessary to pay extra for one.When you purchase the case,ask the seller if he maintains a supply of sheilds incase you need one when you open the box. Its a pretty nice case.I have used other models.I wonder how that cpu air duct works.

The duct doesn't work on my KA7!!!

It does a better cooling job without, then when you leave it on....

You have to do some cutting and fitting too, to install it...

What I like is the rear fan, very quiet and great cooling...

But the Duct is ruther playing than necessary...

I'm also considering purchasing the FK-320 from directron.com. How can I get that discount on shipping since shipping is 1/5 the price of the actual case.

Thanks,

you can get a discount of $10 for shipping there
(only work during weekend, and you have to be
first time customer).

Check the discount part in the website.
