  • XSPC H1 “Hive” Cube+ Extreme Enclosure Review

    Found a review of XSPC's Hive Cube+ over at PureOC, here's the link http://www.pureoverclock.com/Review-...e-enclosure-2/

    BOTTOM LINE:

    It's a pricey case but you get what you pay for; this case can swallow up to five 120mm radiators without modding.
    AsRock Extreme6 Z97, Intel i5 4690K 16 GB Kingston HyperX DDR3, EVGA GTX 1070, ASUS Strix Raid Pro soundcard, Corsair HX850i, 256 GB Crucial MX100 SSD, 500 GB Crucial MX100 (Gaming) SSD, custom water-cooled Corsair Air 540, MSI AG32C LED monitor, Insignia 32 " LED TV, Windows 10 Pro (64 bit)

    I love my silent sniper PC, but my conclusions are different:

    WHAT WE LIKED:

    Craftsmanship (err... ok), quality brushed aluminum (oh, please! Get dirty in a second and hard to clean), roomy (Yes!).


    + easy to work on PC assembly, tons of fans, good coling performance, two windowed panels

    WHAT WE DISLIKED:

    Expensive (No,it is less then Little Devil or case labs), no front I/O panel or USB 3.0, 5.25" bay covers are optional and must be purchased separately (yes, no USB panel is pain).



    + mobo tray is bit shaky, cable management is difficult due to open space, thumb screws look stupid, needs filters

      Says in the review that XSPC replaced the thumb screws with counter-sunk screws, definitely makes the case look more smooth
