    Blinking lights flash on
    Quiet whisper of the fans
    Many credits crunch

    maybe the light up fans are for people using BTX style cases? (assuming the LEDs in the fan work like those Frisbies where the rotation speed of the blades allows the LED flashes to spell out the temp/speed?)

    btw, you've got a ' after the / in the [/b] tag on the first line.

    Sorry, but that blurb is just hilarious. The only thing needed in addition would have been "Lots of blinking <insert favourite colour here> LEDs included." :clap:

    Are you talking about Inverted ATX? BTX is completely different, even though BTX would still have then fans facing up.
    (When most people talk about BTX they really mean Inverted ATX, nothing against you at all.)

    Inverted ATX is technically "WTX" but yeah. Why oh why DOES MSI insist on VGA? I suppose it's to provide as a selling point to the lower end users, but it's nothing that $2 adapter can't provide.

    I'd consider it if it's reasonably priced and the fans are better AND quieter than the original ones. Screw the stupid lighting up of the fans. If I want lights in my computer I place them myself, thank you very much.

    hmm.. maybe three screens on one graphics card?
    Is this based on a GTX 260? If so, why such an odd name?

    From what I've seen 2 fans won't help at all, it'll fight for air to blow out.
