great review BigAkita. very informative and well written. but one thing i would like to know? is the device painted silver or is it made from aluminum?

BigAkita · 05-April-03, 10:21 AM

It's aluminum.

Gladiator · 05-April-03, 10:23 AM

On the website BigAkita left on the review, you can order it in a few colors such as Blue, Silver and Black.

I think I will order the black one.

BigAkita · 05-April-03, 10:39 AM

White, silver, and black. They don't have any blue ones.

Like I stated in the review, it's a quality unit with a real sucky display. If you are good at modding LED's, get one. If you ain't good with LED's, find someone who is and get one.

But be real careful on how much power you draw off it with the fans. Being so small, it can't provide a lot of juice.

My mistake, i saw a 5.25" in blue that looked like it lol

It should be able to run 2 120 mm just fine, shouldnt it?
If it does, I might get one solely for my water setup.

I dont know but it would run them but not the same type of juice what would originate straight from the psu.

BigAkita · 05-April-03, 05:45 PM

During my review I tested 1Amp off the fan lines. I used a .35A 120mm fan on one of the lines and it worked fine. I would keep it down to .75A or less for each of the two fan lines. But to answer your question Casper, Yes.
