But more importantly....Chieftec still exists?!!!?! what a blast from the past
And a glass side panel, which I don't care much about.
Decent case, but desperately needs some sort of sound proofing. It's not top-of-the-line(which they do have as well), but more oriented towards "best bang for the buck" auditory.
Using AL-01B-OP for over a year now and so far I have only few minor complaints.
So far it handles my R5 1600X slightly overclocked under 240mm AIO, and is totally ready for 3950x upgrade as soon as the price falls to the right level.
Airflow is good enough after adding an exhaust fan (dropped VRM temps by over 10C at full load), PSU intake keeps my Seasonic in passive mode most of the time, and GPU never hits above 80C even on the hottest summer day w/o AC.
Best $50 I ever spent.
Chieftec ain't going anywhere any time soon.
seems like moar s.o.s.s to me....
There are still many Chieftec fanboys where I'm from. If you ask the same question in CIS region - you'll be cannibalized by a crowd of angry bearded sweater-wearing swearing sysadmins. :fear:
Anyone here with me?
...no +666
One of the longest-delayed projects on my bucket list is "modernizing" a DX01w full-tower by replacing the entire front-panel I/O, and adding some wire management features.
I still have my >15y.o. Dragon blasting away as workstation/DB server at my 2nd workplace (no mods, unfortunately).
