No, it's too big, dumbest case ever (but i love it) 
way too many empty pci express. should of bought a sound card or something (or an mITX mobo..)

Overall i'm not satisfied. 
but since it's the thing I bought, and I've no money since 2013 
It's great for what it does.. but could be better.

Well, I actually have no issues running any game with my setup ( listed in my profile ) however I'd like to upgrade to X99 and 4K. The only problem is money

Nope.

My i5 is too weak for video editing

280X is an awesome card but i want to go 1440p 144hz or 4k

Probably going to upgrade to

Dual 970's

X99 or I7 4790k

and

Either get an ROG Swift or ASUS PB287Q Monitor

 

I preach this about the i5.

I love my build so much besides the fact my i5 sucks for live streaming or editing and my case is shit for cable management but besides that I am extremely happy with it!

All these people complaining about 'older' i7s and low-compacity SSDs....

 

I'm using a old laptop core-duo (T6670), 3 gigs of DDR2 memory, and a GT 9600m GS....

 

Buuuut....

 

I'm 'bout to build a i7 4790k w/ duel 970s system. F*ck yeah.

 

Edit- Forgot to mention the ancient 1440x900 TN display.

"Normandy" i7 4790K - GTX 970 - Phantom 410 (Gun metal) - Z97 Extreme4 (asrock) - 128GB Crucial SSD - 1TB WD HDD - H60 Refurb. - 7 case fans | G710+ Keyboard, G230 Headset, Acer GN246HL Monitor.

Quick thoughts on system: I7 is extremely quick and I'm glad I spent the extra for hyper-threading. I regret my decision to get the GTX 970, it has horrible coil whine. There isn't any excuse for this terrible whine I and others are having. I HIGHLY recommend a 144hz monitor. Future Improvements/upgrades: Rubber fan mounts, basic speakers, more ram (for a total of 16gb), replace GPU.

144hz is love. 144hz is life. I like to submit unfinished posts then do about 20 edits. I like the Night Theme too.

Right now I'm on my rebuilt rig with two monitors, I'm pretty satisfied and I will be even more so when I get my hands on a 970

Pretty happy,  sometimes I wished I waited for newer components to come out but really.  Its working fine, no bluescreens randomly and thats enough to satisfy me completley :)

My build isn't good by many people's standards(including mine), but considering how much money i put into it and the fact that it still can run console games better than the consoles themselves, i'm content with it for now.

 

Once i get a job, ill be changing out most of my components to be able to get a build im truly proud of.

Current Build:
 
AMD FX-6300 - ASUS M5A78L-M LX+ - Radeon HD 7770 - WD 500GB HDD - 2 x 4GB Kingston HyperX Blu

My current build works but I need more power, this 1st gen i3 and GTX-650 are not good enough.

I want to get me a GTX-970 and upgrade my cpu and mobo, but I'm too broke right now.

The stars died for you to be here today.

A locked bathroom in the right place can make all the difference in the world.

No: i should have got an EVGA 1000W P2

i wanted a 5930K/5960X but my parents thought it was too expensive

Wanted a 980 without coil whine and 16GB RAM but DDR4 is expensive and 8GB is enough for gaming

otherwise, love my PC

I'm satisfied with mine when it's working. I built it mid-October and I already had to RMA the PSU; and now the motherboard is being sent out for RMA. Just bad luck I suppose. But when it's working, holy balls..

I am not satisfied with my 5 year old set up cause It can't keep up on what I am doing..

 

But I am saving money for a new rig.. but it might take months (or years T_T) since I am only a student that doesn't have a job.. And I only gain money by saving my allowance.

Case: NZXT H440     CPU: Intel core i7-4790k    RAM: 2x G.Skill ripjaws 4gb 1600mhz   GPU: Soon   CPU Cooler: Stock (will buy a decent one soon)     PSU: CM V650 80+ gold PSU.

Got an i7 3770k CPU and R9 290 vapor-x GPU, 8GB of DDR3 1866Mhz RAM.

Very satisfied with the performance and stability across a wide range of games.

 

Only thing I am not happy with is the intel stock cooler. Got my eye on a NZXT X61 AIO.
