The package for the Aerocool Dead Silence DS200 isn't especially inspiring. These days I expect to see an exploded diagram that details the features of the case inside, however the DS200 box has a line drawing and a list of words.
On the plus side, the box took a kicking while it was in transit but the case arrived in perfect condition.
The box of accessories is stowed in one of the drive bays and includes two drive bezels (one stealth optical door and one for an external drive) and bags that hold a number of motherboard standoffs and fasteners. The bags are labelled for motherboard, power supply, hard drive and optical drive which is exactly how things should be. I have no idea why some manufacturers make life difficult by mixing up the fasteners in one assorted bag.
How can a review littered with so many negatives, especially important ones like cramped conditions, mediocre cooling and lack of cable space be awarded a must have award. I mean I know its plastered all over the main page but I really think without the advertising this would have scraped a worth having at the most. Just my thoughts, review was great as always.
I think Levisevis that the price is the reason it scores high, its pretty cheap considering what you get, so the negative points can be overlooked a bit. I do know what you mean though. I hope advertising doesn’t affect scores here, but I can see the selling points on the earlier pages which really do look quite good to me.
Excellent review guys 🙂 for excellent product 🙂
