Advantages: Easy fitting of cables Disadvantages: Limited compatibility with certain motherboard layouts
...I recently bought one of these as I needed to get an old server of mine up and running and didn't have a spare PSU with the relevant capacity. The version I bought came complete with a couple of extra UVreactivefans/UV lights, as well as two UVreactive IDE cables.
Upon fitting it to the case of the Server, (it's a dual cpu setup so needs a fairly substantial PSU) I began fitting the leads, first to the PSU itself and then to the motherboard and various components (Hard drives/CD-Rom drives etc). I'd gotten as far as the power supplies for the motherboard itself, (ie. not far at all) when I realised that, (due to the ergonomic design of the connectors) they wouldn't fit on my cramped server board.
The best advice I can give anyone contemplating buying one of these is CHECK the layout of your motherboard, if the power connectors...

Advantages: Easy fitting of cables Disadvantages: Limited compatibility with certain motherboard layouts & very bright light in the psu
...I recently bought one of these and after having used it for a number of weeks, can say without doubt that this is one of the best PSU's I have ever used. (For those of you out there who aren't technically savvy, PSU stands for Power Supply Unit and is what powers your pc).
It's not the quietest PSU by a long way, but the ease of fitting, sturdiness of construction, and good looks of this device mean it's a must-have for anyone who's into modding their PC case and likes the idea of a fit & forget Power Supply. The version I bought was the UV version, which as you can imagine is VERY bright, which again ties in with the case-modding community quite well. It also came complete with a couple of extra UVreactivefans/UV lights, as well as two UVreactive IDE cables.
Although this PSU was easy to fit into the case, (ie. I didn't have...

Advantages: See through :) Disadvantages: Easily marks, lots of work needed
...are impressive wait until you see this baby. If you decide to properly kit the case out like i did with UV light, LED fans, UVreactive IDE cables and the Cooler Master Jet7 fan(With blinking lights) ;) then you definetely wont be disappointed. At night you can turn off all of your lights and this case will keep the room well illuminated.
Problems - If you dont have time to assemble a case and make everything look neat and tidy then forget about this case straight away. With this case EVERYTHING is on show. Your cables have to be tidy, i have mine within a special chrome tubing to keep them neat and not spread out everywhere. If your not willing to splash out on LED fans or UV lights and LEDs then dont buy this case either. The case is designed to be illuminated and simply looks poor when not lit.
Look but dont touch - I mean this. If you start...

Just before Christmas, I decided to go to my usual hair salon to get my nails done. I just wanted to look nice over Christmas, and felt like I really needed to make my hands look a bit more feminine. We were going to the pub for the Christmas meal with... more
