4.0 out of 5 stars Requires additional upgrade kit for use with Intel i7, May 23, 2009

Well built, but I was dissappointed that the Armor+LCS do not directly support Intel i7 out of the box. If you intend to use this with Intel i7 and any motherboard with LGA1366(socket B) socket, you will need to purchase *** 1 *** A242331 LGA 1366 upgrade kits. The included metal H-clips for both the bottom side of the motherboard and the CPU water block itself are not for Intel i7/LGA1366.

Not a big deal but it should have been noted that the case is intended for last gen. motherboard/CPU.

It is always a pleasure to work with a product that is designed with a great deal of insight into the needs of its users and which is manufactured to exacting standards.

This case is large. It's heavy, but features like the pull-out motherboard shelf, the quick release 3.5 and 5.25 inch bays, and the lack of sharp edges make it a genuine pleasure to use. Cards are similarly held in by quick release levers, and the goal of a toolless case is tantalizingly close.

The case is laid out very logically with respect to compartments, and the ventilation is good, with plenty of room to buy cable. However, be very careful that you check to see that your particular CPU is supported by the liquid cooling system. My new Intel i7 is not, so I had to take the excellently built LCS out, and it sits on my shelf. Further, be certain you really want or need an LCS, because you have to change the coolant every six months or so, just like you have to change the coolant in your car. If you're using this to play games on it, then that's one thing, but if you are using it to also store critical data, then I think there's a risk of a coolant spill every time you change the fluid.

The case, even without being able to use the LCS is a joy to own. The manual pictures are too small and the English in the manual is not great, but once you "get" the innovations in this design, you won't have to rely on them too much.

Just build a new gaming rig and decided to go for liquid cooling. This case made it so easy! comes with everything you need to liquid cool your CPU and has enough capacity to add multiple components as well.
