Leave some feedback or feel my wrath! ;)

I really like how it looks. I like blue stuff.

But it seems like there are better, more efficent, ways to use your 5.25 inch bays. To only have 3 functions and one of them being a sound meter seems like a waste. I would rather have 3 temp meters. Well, if I didn't have an Aero7+ I might like 2 temps and a voltage.

But still, it looks pretty cool.

yeah 'a person' that pretty much sums up my thoughts...

sure it looks cool...

but would i recommend paying $46 for it? i couldn't do that unless i recommended that you give me $46 as well :D

Haha, yeah, they look nice, but I'd rather go wtih something with more functionality myself. And damn, has anyone else noticed that those things are like flooding review sites? Musketeers everywhere... :shock:

yeah, the case that i am reviewing now has a great little temp gauge built right into the front bezel and it seems there are several case companies that are starting to include that feature.

the big problem i see is that almost every decent mobo has auto shutdown for when your machine temp goes too high. in most cases it shuts down faster than you can hit the powerswitch...ask rich about this and his recent "oops i knocked the cpu fan power wire off the mobo" incident. not to mention that most mobos also come with a temp monitoring program.

i agree, i like the look of the temp monitors, but monitoring the temp on the outside of the case is rarely a necessity.

but its so cool! ;)
