Just couldn't pass this up knowing I have a stock HP computer, and the fans are all in overdrive when I play Wic, thinking thats why my game might crash - things get a bit too hot. I figure for $95 shipped thats not a bad deal at all.

I was goona get that case. I decided against it though, because I don't like bottom mounted PSUs. Also I heard the 200mm tri-cool fan on top makes a ton of noise and dust bunnies build up really quick cuz none of the fans have filters. For less than 100, though, can't really find a better case.

Yeah I'm going to invent my own dust filtration system after I get the case in my hands - Shouldn't be all that hard. Just have to cover the intakes. Don't really care about the fans blowing out. We'll see - if worse case scenario is I bring it to work and blow it out every 3-4 months - big deal. I need to find a wic crashing solution.

bc aside from doing it outside - compressed are isn't that compressed, and we have 100psi lines here at work. Makes a snap out of it.

Thats the same case that most of us have. I need to one myself, but we will look pretty sick at lans with a majority of us using the same case.

Is it safe to blow it on the parts? Seems like the pressure could damage the boards. I think I'll just vacuum the big stuff out.

Senshizer is always good. The razer is terrible don't get it. I have the altech lansing something or others... not sure. but they are $73 at best buy. They are nice, but I break a set a month due to anger and or dogs... so get the replacement plan for them

I have Sennheiser headphones now and they are awesome. It doesn't have a mic tho so i use a different headset and my speakers during matches.
