get a centurion 590 shit owns
The reason I didn't get the cheaper, 300 when I bought my case is because my cousin has a habit of sitting on my computer, and bending the hell out of the case. It's pretty damn hard to convince a five year old otherwise, and I can't lay a hand on him... :frown: They are kinda like the Hyundai of the computer case world. They used to be shit, now they fucking rock. Hyundai Genesis = NZXT Cases.
The Panzerbox is decent, everything else they've made seems to be kind of terrible. At least they're better than Apevia.
My Tempest is pretty nice but most of their other cases are shit.
it seems everyone with NZXT cases say one of two things, either "all their cases are good, all of you are fanboys/liars/butthurt/etc" or "[case they own] is good, the rest are shit" [editline]03:18AM[/editline] which kinda says a lot about people who defend things they own

"most" not "rest". Pretty big difference given your argument is hinging on me claiming my case is the only good one. They make a few cases I like, I got one of them (imagine that..). Only thing that discouraged me is that other than the few I liked (panzerbox/tempest/khaos), they really are mostly shitty products, most of which have glossy plastic fronts with tons of lights and whatnot to make them appeal to 12 year old mexicans. Speaking of which, I'm surprised you don't have one. Of course in your mind everyone else is either has a big ego over what they own or are fanboys.
[QUOTE=.ediT;17647332]Speaking of which, I'm surprised you don't have one.[/QUOTE] what you said meant something until this bit in which it instantly became horse shit because you're biased against me cry some more
[QUOTE=ButtsexV17;17647208]I've never heard an owner of an NZXT case say any different.[/QUOTE]Fact,I own a NZXT Lexa Blackline.I suggested the Beta.Not the Lexa. Earlier,I also said SOME case's NZXT make's are complete and utter shit.While on the other hand they do have some very decent case's. Now you have heard a NZXT owner say otherwise.
itt butthurt, especially from nzxt owners
[QUOTE=ButtsexV17;17651397]itt butthurt, especially from nzxt owners[/QUOTE] Bugger off.
[QUOTE=ButtsexV3;17626811]It's horribly made, and has pitiful airflow. I've never seen a well made NZXT case.[/QUOTE] Completely agree, my NZXT Trinity is a crappy piece of shit too. Should've picked a Cooler Master Centurion 5 back then. My NZXT is scratched easily and has a lot of sharp edges. The room inside is also quite small ( an 8800GTS barely fit in it ). The only good thing about it is the HDD tray.
Fact, I owned a NZXT Hush. Was the worst investment in a product ever.
I love my Hush, even though I hate LEDs on my cases. My GPU is always under 60c even on full load, and my CPU only gets up to 115 F on full load. It is a hell of alot better than my old Raidmax case.
It would be good if a company like coolermaster redid that case and made it decent quality
[QUOTE=laserpanda;17645823]The Panzerbox is decent, everything else they've made seems to be kind of terrible. At least they're better than Apevia.[/QUOTE] Bitch be dissing my X-Cruiser? :v: Yeah, I know they're shite. I'm getting a new one soon. Probably in January.

[QUOTE=Zaktaman;17660378]I'm sorry but that CPU temp is pretty damn hot.[/QUOTE] 46c is not that hot.
[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;17660440]46c is not that hot.[/QUOTE] Oh, woops. I assumed that was Celsius, because the other temp was as well.
[QUOTE=Zaktaman;17660455]Oh, woops. I assumed that was Celsius, because the other temp was as well.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I just figured out how to change coretemp to Celsius.
[QUOTE=Zaktaman;17660378]I'm sorry but that CPU temp is pretty damn hot.[/QUOTE] My Q9550 hits 100c ~211F on load.
[QUOTE=Panda X;17661613]My Q9550 hits 100c ~211F on load.[/QUOTE] What is it clocked at?
[QUOTE=Panda X;17661613]My Q9550 hits 100c ~211F on load.[/QUOTE] I hope you're using stock heatsink, while overclocking :geno:
the Alpha isn't that bad I own one for one computer i needed just for a family member. Has a "Decent" amount of space.
I suggest that you cool it down somehow, 100c is dangerously hot.
[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;17661635]What is it clocked at?[/QUOTE] Default. With an Arctic Cooler Freezer Pro 7. Yeah it's horrible. But I don't do much so I'm putting off reseating it / reapply paste to it.
I highly suggest you do something about it, 100c is extremely hot.
[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;17662004]I highly suggest you do something about it, 100c is extremely hot.[/QUOTE] Yeah. [img]http://www.cubeupload.com/files/439200sheshot.png[/img]
