SiSoftware Sandra (the System ANalyser, Diagnostic and Reporting Assistant) is an information & diagnostic utility. It should provide most of the information (including undocumented) you need to know about your hardware, software and other devices whether hardware or software.
Sandra is a (girl’s) name of Greek origin that means “defender”, “helper of mankind”. We think that’s quite fitting.
It works along the lines of other Windows utilities, however it tries to go beyond them and show you more of what’s really going on. Giving the user the ability to draw comparisons at both a high and low-level. You can get information about the CPU, chipset, video adapter, ports, printers, sound card, memory, network, Windows internals, AGP, PCI, PCI-X, PCIe (PCI Express), database, USB, USB2, 1394/Firewire, etc.

The reference clocked Core i5 4690 isn't going to break any performance records, but it is well balanced.
Its a nice build, a little dull as you can’t overclock the CPU, but nice to see the new in win case, thats pretty sexy
I love the case, interested in buying it – any prices for the case? (alerady entered the competition for this pc :))
Yes you can buy the case here: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-037-IW
Great review. I was sure it will have higher temperatures, bcoz the airflow in the case is a bit weak. But they are much better than expected
