dissapointed with my 650d build

yes points taken. I was just a bit peeved last night at 10 after spending 4 hours putting it together and finding I wasn't very happy. I have no one to blame but myself for a few of the points but still, I would like to have seen what is only a £1 cable (for corsair) thrown in and perhaps a few more ports on the mobo for £100. It doesn't even have an i1394 port. I didn't do my homework it seems. I am happy with the build - it just hasn't turned out as good as I thought. Money again, id have bought the PC6 Li case, a normal cooler, and the GD65 mobo but Ill live with this setup for sure.

if corsair provided the high-end extras with the mid/low end cases, then you would complain that there is no point buying a high-end case as there is no added extras!

an i1394 port? really?
 
well number 3 just sounds like it your own fault for not doing more research, and number 4 sounds a bit wrong to me. I've fitted quite a lot of h50/h60/h70/h80 coolers into 650D cases and never had a problem. And I really don' think you can blame OCUK for number 2
 
For their recent cases Corsair are shipping a USB 3>2 connector, i factored that into my decision knowing that the 650D didn't come with one.

Naughty case for stealing your SATA ports though, should contact Corsair and tell them.

The H60 screws aren't that bad, it requires a bit of patience to feed the screws through the holes in the fan and line it up with the rad but if you're building PC's then it's really not that high in the difficulty list.

Noise? read a few reviews, every single in depth review i read on the 650D mentioned the increased noise from grills.

Still an excellent case though with tons of features that you don't normally find at that price point.
