Happy holidays to everyone again!
Ok, I am presently using the Storm Sniper for my AMD rig listed below in my signature. It has worked flawlessly now for a couple of years and I have been very happy with it. I especially like these specific points:
Pros:
Super wide side plate [I can hide so many wires there that it is funny].
Ability to control all fans with the built in fan controller
Ability to turn off all LED's with a simple flick of the switch
Heavy duty [the thing is built like a brick house or an M1 tank].
Cooling fans [3 x 200mm's with some 120mm's too] are doing a great job of throwing a lot of air around
Cons:
It is kinda ugly
Somehow my AMD 1055T runs 8c degrees hotter at idle than my Intel 2500K and both have the Hyper 212+.
I just purchased a new Antec Red Lanboy [it was less than half price] after waiting one entire year to upgrade my case
Not sure I made a good choice...many reviewers call it a modular case with lots of options...and it has tons of great reviews...as well as lots of eye candy...
Anyone here own one and if yes, can you give me some of your experiences or insights on it?
Anyone else familar with Antec's Lanboys and if yes, can you share your suggestions?
I'd appreciate all suggestions, comments, and constructive criticisms.
It's me,
Soar
PS I posted pics of my Sniper and I tried to post a pic of Newegg's version of the Lanboy but for some reason, this website would not permit it...says "not a valid image."
Anyway, here's the URL with the pics and specs:
