    has anyone seen this? apparently has an integrated 500 watt gold psu included. I know they are typically garbage, but seems to be highly rated. add on the water cooling kit from evga (which I read wasn't too difficult to install despite all the eggheads whining). the main thing that concerns me is the slim slot load dvd...evga apparently made one, but doesn't seem to be anywhere now...and ones I do find seem to be pretty pricey. any of you water cooling vets see a major problem with the w/c kit? this would be my first mini type build, so thoughts on the case would be appreciated.

    The 500W that they include is actually very decent, and can cope with any single GPU on the market with ease. ;)

    That WC loop looks cheap to me, and you could definitely do better.

    yeah, after reading a bit more, the tubes would hafta go...the rad looks...cheap...but what can you do for close to that price? and know it was compatible?

    Anything is as long as you plan and are able to place things in your mind before buying. :)

    I found the whole Hadron case to be pretty cheap, with poor build quality to match and not nearly as good looks as the pictures make out. Just so you know, you are likely to pay a premium price for a mid range case.
