The HailStorm has arrived.

I am very pleased with the build and quality of work.   

Damn!   Should have
put that 2nd GTX690 in the order to just fill up the case a bit more.

Fed-Ex finally arrived 
and the overall condition of the box was very good.  Only issue, that wasn't,  was the tape used to seal the box (bottom of box).  The tape seems to not like the box material
or vice versa and so the tape totally let go. 
The pc and all contents were safe inside because of the strapping that
was used around the box.  The second
layer of shipping protection paid for itself. 
Surprised the tape did not stick.

The contents were packaged effectively and securely.  I'll have to get an Aventum and get the wood
box next time.

Only issue that I experienced was with the top door to get
to the front USB ports.  With the blue
ray player mounted right below, the door will not open as needed because it
rolls/flips down and comes into contact with blue ray player.

Easy fix.  I just move
the player one slot down.  5 minutes if
that.  

Plugged in keyboard, mouse, and monitor and powered up with
zero issues what so ever.  Plugged
everything else in and was up and gaming in very little time and with even less
effort.

GPU is handling BF3 and such on ultra without hiccups.  Should have just purchased two 690's (waste
of money) and filled the case up a touch more, lol.

Sound card sounds FANTASTIC! 
I had an old SB Xtreme gamer and this Auzen Forte blows it out of the
water.  The music is SO much better and
the in-game 7.1 sound great.  I was missing
a lot with the old card but didn't know it till now.

I am very pleased with everything I have come into contact
with since I searched out Digital Storm.

Forums are fantastic in answering questions and are
invaluable to the buyer.

Alex was more than willing to read emails from future
customers and always was very helpful.

Bryan (sales) was another excellent employee.  On multiple occasion he talked me out of
spending money on wasteful items and used reason and logic to explain why I did
or did not need an item at this time and place (second 690 for example).

I can't say enough about a company and sales team that sells
the buyer what is best for the buyer and not what brings in the most money for
the company.

I can say without hesitation, I will be a repeat customer of
Digital Storm and sooner than I need.

Digital Storm... +1

Thanks,
