I like the HDD enclosure and anodize paint job, that's about it.
Agreed "stay cool" sounds pretty lame to high end markets lol.

What a piece of ****. The only thing that's good is the HDD enclosure.

I'm impressed that you've been in china as long as you have and still remember what a horseshoe is. 
Wanna play a game? I'm a mean horseshow thrower.

I can't stand Fatal1ty he thinks that he is the king of the world, that is why I never buy any Fatal1ty branded hardware.

it's a real nice guy and this is one way to make money. sure, people who are a bit of a gamer know better but noobs buy that stuff (don't mind my x-fi fatality, that was a real bargain). fugger once had a chat with him and he's alright. most of u guys are biased towards him, which I kinda understand though.

i dont understand the issue with fatality, we obviously arent the target market for his stuff, and its just a kid trying to make some money.
if i was sick at quake and i didnt have a job in my late teens and everyone wanted to give me thousands to put my name on thier stuff i wouldn't be complaining too much.
The case is ok, but like i said, we were never the target market anyways.

Well, if you want to get technical about things, Hong Kong only really became part of China after 1997. Also, why should Chinese not know about horseshoes? I don't get that statement and I can't really tell if it is meant as sarcasm or not.
Not to mention I was born here in Hong Kong...

Kid looks like a chump i think. Maybe "stay cool" means, keep your hardware cool, not you be cool. Because if your cool, that he suddenly is not cool, but if you suck, and your hardware is cool, you are not better than him.....
OMFG.

When i saw 'Stay cool' i thought it was for hardware... I mean, Zalman, they make coolers and stuff... Anywho, most of the fatality stuff can be bought normal too (Zalman coolers, this case is so-so, i'd rather have a Lian Li or a Stacker) and the Abit boards weren't that good. And XS is definetly not a marketplace for this stuff. They'd need to make a bench plate for you guys to screw the mobo on and that's it

lol Yeah, $360. I'd buy a Lian Li and save about $90 before I'd buy that damn abomination.

Well said. I saw it in a Fry's last week or so and I was very surprised at how well made and heavy it is, then I looked at the logos (how did I miss them to begin with?) and saw the price.

The case looks pretty cool, but those logos all over the thing totally kill it, not to mention that price. Much rather buy a Lian Li that rapes this thing and doesn't have logos all over it like some rice car.
