Some guy named noob told off icrontic!

Here is an excerpt from his comments on mediamans review:

"At the rear are 7 PCI slots, the motherboard..."

I thought 1 of them would be for AGP? What about ISA? I also believe it's atx form factor standard to have 7 slots for addond perrephirals.

"The X-Wing case is an all metal chassis with the traditional front plastic bezel."

This one explains itself.

"Pull off the side panel for a better look at the fans which are clear plastic as opposed to the common black configuration. I don't know if it makes them better"

Of course it does! Everyone knows clear plastic reduces drag..........AND it deflects all the infrared rays in the air, and will appease to your every wish when you hold on to it while its spinning and say meka leka hi meka hiney HOE.....

"But back into the case for a moment. The bottom case has been perforated with updraft cooling holes. These aren't particularily my favourite as they allow dust into the case but they do have an intended cooling design...I think. My jury is still out on the effectiveness of a bottom of a case looking like Swiss cheese but I'll be the first one to support updraft cooling."

Quite an oxymoron if you ask me....

"I suspect that during normal daily operation this setup should keep your system hovering around 28 degrees Celsius in a 24 degree room."

mmmm...guessed readings....great! Just what a reader needs.

"I couldn't find the specs for these fans but believe me they are quiet. I'd estimate around 22-27 dBA pushing approximately 25-32 CFM. They are very quiet and if I were a betting man I'd lean towards the lessor figures."

MORE ESTIMATED FIGURES! Wow, you should be in ripleys believe it or not with as a human decible reader. Hey, how much pressure do those magic fingers of yours detect coming from the fan?

My point here is obvious...icrontic content is becoming quick, sloppy, and ultimately uninforming. My IQ drops 10 points just reading this crap

....this man named noob may or not be aka beav....

I posted some choice words here, but I don't think that I got as great of a review as that guy. Actually, I finid this stuff so funny that I'm going to go browse that site for comedic value. It reminds me of this site: www.realultimatepower.net, only it is for real. BTW on that real ultimate power, let me tell you three important things...
1. Ninjas are mammals.
2. Ninjas fight ALL the time.
3. The purpose of the ninja is to flip out and kill people.
so yeah.... off to icrontic I go

. I'll drop some findings.

OMG!!! I've been wanted that URL forever... heh, I lost it! Love that page

BTW, that guy is apperently a complete idiot. I wonder if he rereads his articles after he writes them and askes himself... "Does this sound intelligent?"
