Corsair Obsidian?
It's Corsair
It really doesn't have that many features besides the cable management hole placement.
I'd pay $200 for it, $250 max, no more then that though.
The only thing is has over the competition is the many wire management holes.
I could pick up a case for $500 that supports 10 hot swap SAS drives, dual PSUs and CEB server boards. To much for a PC case though, good for a server case.
I want to build a server using the case. It's the ABS Tigas. I like it's looks.
it kinda makes a little sense i guess i didnt see the long run. but still the core i7 should be one socket only. they should have just made the newer ones lga 1366Well, with Lynnfield they built the Northbridge chipset ON the CPU which eliminates the need for it on the P55 boards. It's still there on the X58 boards though. Also, the on-die chipset only does 16X PCI-E lanes. So it can only do one PCI-E 16X or two PCI-E at 8X each. For anything more they have to add on a seperate Nvidia N200 Chipset, which is used on motherboards like the ASUS WorkStation and EVGA Classified in the X58 lineup.washd123
The on-die chipset is also what helps decrease the manufacturing cost for the motherboards and for the CPUs somewhat.
the new socket is whats confusing. they should have called it core i7 and kept the lga1366 socket and used the socket 1156 for the core i5 only or soemthingIt's not really confusing....Core i3 will be LGA 1156. Core i5 will be LGA 1156.Core i7 8xx will be LGA 1156. Core i7 9xx will be LGA 1366. Core i9 XXX will be LGA 1366.washd123
That RAM won't work with that motherboard.
AM3 motherboards only support DDR3.
Here is Core i5 and Core i7 8xx pricing

The 4-Pin molex cable ISN'T needed unless your overclocking your videos AND doing CFX.ok i did some cable managment (which i suck in) and here it is :

Why don't you run the CPU power connector like I did here?
