    Re: Cooler master elite 120

    I've been looking for reviews almost daily.
    there's:
    3dgamerman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msadwL71mCQ as always general and a bit half assed but the only English video review
    hardware secrets http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/artic...se-Review/1599 again rather half assed they spotted something that other seem to have missed, you can fit a 2nd 120mm fan on the inside on the drive cage
    AandAtech http://www.anandtech.com/show/6110/c...most-every-way fairly detailed, but contradict themselves in a couple of places, they pull up some questions about air flow but don't bother to look into it just seem to make some blind guesses.
    Just found another on pro-clockers http://pro-clockers.com/cases/2376-c...-advance-.html which I'm currently reading, so far it's looking likr the best review, going into more detail, they've got the first shot I've seen on the internal face of the bezel.

    Looks like it's going to need some dust filtering, as the only filter is on the psu vent.

    Ah I didn't actually read the reviews myself!

    Are you planning to get the case yourself? Or getting it and modding it for a friend?

    Re: Cooler master elite 120

    Both

    Ok it's a bit of self justification to spend moneys I really shouldn't be, but a comic artist friend really needs a new pc as he's currently on an old HP p4 system he got given after his rather old imac died.
    As I've got the bits for a mini-itx sans case and psu, I was originally thinking about building an HTPC out of it, but our old tv doesn't have any pc inputs, it's an old LCD 19" 4:3, just has scart RCA and S-video
    So I was thinking get one of these, put in one of the Huntkey 80+Gold 300w psu's
    The rest of it is just an old zotac nvidia 9300 ITX board with a nackered ram slot which I got for postage, a c2d e8400 (I think) and a single 2gb stick of DDR2, 5.25" sata DVDr/w, and a couple of 180gb HD's
    I'd love an SSD but cannot justify it.
    That should keep him going until he's got enough to buy some thing better and then I could see about a new TV and turning that into an HTPC.

    And yes I've ordered it had to go via ebuyer for the psu, they are still waiting for the elite 120 to come in due to a shipping issue, I would of gone with scan to get it at once but they don't have a psu that can really match the huntkey.

    As soon as I get my grubby mitts on it I'll knock up a review for it.
