[BuckNaked]

Looks like a pretty good price on a wavemaster case....

Just ordered one. It is surprising more people are not buying it, since there is nothing else that comes close in quality at this price.

Pretty good price, but the cooling on this case kills it for me

If it only had 120mm fans instead of the 80's. Yes, I suppose I could mod it to fit the 120's, but i'm not so good at doing that kind of stuff. It is a very sharp looking case though.

I've had this case for almost 3 years. I modded the side panel to include a 80mm inlet fan right over the CPU area and think it has great cooling (now).
I've got a Opty 165 running 2.5ghz no problems and it's barely audible.

I just received this case on Friday(3/31/06) and I think it's a great looking case. Same thing as a Cooler Master w/o the badges. This is an absolute steal for $64.00. Most eretailers (cough,cough....) sell it for about $129.00.

BTW, does anyone know if the front bezel shows red or a blue LED light? I thought I read in another forum, that this particular case from geeks.com displays a red LED instead of a blue light.

it's a decent price for the case..nothing hot...this case shouldn't even be $120 in the first place...this is 2006...120mm is the way to go...

That may be so, but considering that most eretailers are charging almost double of the price of this case makes it a HOT deal.

Someone please tell me if this will have the blue light in the front!!

Im about to pull the trigger on this!

The light is red. Also, the custom connector is made for Asus boards. If it is not Asus, you will have to cut it up.

I hope mine arrives properly. In the FW thread, people complained about damage from poor packaging.

Got mine today. Cutting up the front panel connector was easier than I thought. Used some kitchen scissors and split it so it will fit any motherboard.

The only defect is the front door is slightly tilted down, which causes the door to scrape when closing. Otherwise, it is just like a new case, minus the bag of spare screws.
