SIGMA ORCA ORCA-B Black/ Silver Computer Case

Comment:
Ok, right here's my scoop on this case. The front panel design is what makes this case stand out. Not numerous cases appear as sharp as this a single. The front panel is flat with an aluminum finish that defines its beauty. I admire the mesh searching side panel vent. I can see that it will be useful as an air intake for video cards. When I took it out of the box, the power button fell off..lol. Not to worry, I just picked it up and snapped it back in. One particular of the mesh air intake covers was a tiny loose, so out came the glue gun and I put it back in it's place. I also realized that the fan duct was going to be useless, since their will be plenty of air circulating in the case, so I removed it. This is also the type of case that men and women would say " Nice computer, exactly where did you acquire it? " As an experienced case builder and case modder, I know that this case is going to be effortless to function with. I am certainly replacing all the fans with Panaflos. Affordable paint job, the manufacturer could have carried out a superior job. One of the causes I am giving this case a 5 and not much less is due to the fact it's not that terrible of a value. Plus I have noticed and worked with worse circumstances. I would not buy this case to build for my own use, but I do recommend this case for those who enjoy constructing PCs for customers. I know my client will be pleased with this case... ;)

Rigid and stupid. It cuts my fingers. It is so old style! (explained in other thoughts) My encounter told me that it is poor to pack the harddrives into a packed area like this case as well. The shelves for the harddrives are just also close with each other and not adequate air pass by way of which created my harddrives hot.It fits with GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3R LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard. On the other hand, the screw that connect to the motherboard from the case doesn't match all the holes from the motherboard.The faceplate of the case's PCI area is extremely old style. I have to flip these PCI faceplates several occasions to knock it off. The case should have use the kind of faceplate that use the screws to fixture these PCI faceplates.The case is not major adequate to fit in my new x1950 ati graphics card and it bumps to my harddrives!The worst of all: I can't open the prime of case when I want it.When you have the motherboard installed in the case, it is challenging to put harddrives in the case since of space challenge.The USB of the front panel is another way around! Weird!It cuts my f

The metal of the case feels sturdy to me. It has nice weight. Side panels are easy to get rid of. Power button falls off. Case front air vents' glue had given out in storage (I guess), and the grills had been just lying in the case with their beads of dried glue searching really sad. No directions or warranty data in the box. Front panel cables had been annoyingly knotted (if you've switched to velcro on your shoes...don't buy this case). This case was a replacement for one that was damaged in shipping. Newegg.com buyer service is best-notch. I feel guilty asking them for one more replacement, but I will if I don't get satisfaction from Sigma. Sigma's warranty telephone quantity (on their site) requires you to an anonymous voice-mailbox "mailbox # 109"...Seems very fly-by-night.

-powerful material, you know your parts are risk-free.-neutral cosmetic style, not flashy, but it looks fantastic anywhere.-two fan slots for excellent intake/exhaust airflow.-fan that comes with situation is inexpensive, but moves air well, while being really. i will almost certainly get 1 or two new ones.-plenty of space for whatever is needed.-low price, has everything needed and doesn't break your bank. there weren't a lot of cons, but for all inexpensive situations there will be a handful of, but none compromised on functionality.-affordable paint job,not noticeable from a far, but there are little bubbles. don't be concerned it wont chip.-makes use of screws rather than finger screws. i knew this when i purchased it, i wanted to save money.-the side vent doesn't line up with my cpu fan, but no big deal, airflow is nevertheless very good.-the color coded chords for the leds and energy on/off didn't match my motherboard's . general, i rated a 5 since it did the job nicely, and i haven't had any complications. general, apart from the somewhat slower installation, i am incredibly happy with its outcome.

get the job performed, sturdy, looks fantastic, a lot of space, and very good air flow heavy, and the front is place with each other kinda cheaply, almost everything behind the front, ie tough drive light and grills, were held on with hot glue that just fell off when i got it but effortlessly place back on for the price you cant beat it i just would of like to noticed it keep with each other and maybe a fan in the front

Construction of the case is pretty lightweight but not too bad compared to my other case that I have owned (and payed double for). This case has really nice 120mm fan slots which you will absolutely get applied to if you haven't had those in a case ahead of. Also, it's not negative to appear at. The case is pretty sharp all round. The case can really feel a tiny lightweight at times, but I have had no troubles with stability of components as a result far. Also, the case did not come with enough motherboard mounts which was sort of discomforting as I did not have adequate left over from my other pc setups. It only comes with eight motherboard mounts so check your motherboard for compliance. General, I would undoubtedly acquire this case again. The case is expected to be a little lighter construction and have a couple woes (the mounts) but general it is a steal. Well worth the Jackson I paid for it.

Superb air flow possible with a 12cm on the back, space for a 12cm fan on the front, and a space for an 8cm side fan. The rear fan on my unit turn out to be a rebranded Thermaltake A2029, which interestingly was the fan I put in the front of the unit. My unit also lacked the odd searching fan clip that can be noticed in the photos which means a single less thing that could potentially rattle. The power and reset buttons have a decent feel when pressed, though the power is a tad floaty, but I can't see it sticking which I've seen with other low-cost cases. There are meshes more than the front fan intakes. The psu region has decent help for an average sized unit generating it's installation pretty easy. It's a surprisingly light case, probably due to how thin some of the metal is (to me this is a plus for portability), and the metal is thick enough to do it's job. Plenty of drive bays. Many of the edges are folded to lessen finger cuts in those regions. Excellent looking when assembled. The front panel buttons, lights and screens are poorly glued on and possibly a couple of will pop off during shipping, but they are effortless to reattach with a basic glue gun and thankfully the front panel comes off quickly enough. The CPU vent tube on the side panel is adjustable, but incredibly flimsy when extended. I would advise either replacing it with a 8cm side fan, locking it in spot with tape or glue, or just removing it entirely if it rattles on you. Though many of the metal edges are turned, there are some places to be cautious of. The three most notable are the dive support tabs, the psu support tabs, and the worst is the card slot tabs (this is the purpose it lost a bubble). The card slot plates imo need to be removed, sanded and replaced with face blanks before you install anything as they can be razor sharp, and a few left good size metal burs/splinters that if the came off and fell on a mother board although running could short out the program. The molex connectors are a tad frail. So with all these negatives why did I give it a four egg rating? Easy I got this situation for ษ with free shipping. I expected it to have a couple of problems, but was more impressed at how couple of it essentially had in comparison to other cases I've noticed at this price tag. If you don't mind putting a little pre work into this situation it is incredibly functional. The benefit of this situation is that if you are on a budget it will enable you to invest into a greater PSU, which in my opinion is a much better place to spend funds when on a spending budget. So once again this is a wonderful case if you can deal with the troubles. Their is 1 other issue I would like to point out which is the situation if a hair smaller sized front to back than some other people I've worked with. Don't count on to place a mungo motherboard or video card into it. Again this is a budget case, and their are plenty of motherboards and video cards that will fit it, just be conscious, and take pleasure in this exceptional budget case.

Value, the fan is fairly very. the paint job was fairly poor, but I can deal with it. will suggest this item.

Comment:
I got this case when i ordered my pc from cyberpowerpc.comfor the price this case is fantastic and has lots of area for expansion.really nicely constructed Doesnt look all that excellent but whatever

Comment:
I like the reality that Its quite light. When i place in my mother board i used a micro-atx and had no problem. i didnt have any sharp corners either. None. The lights in the front for the energy and HDD are kinda vivid but it does not bother me. The 120mm fan in the back is kinda slow but still pushes rather a bit of air.

Comment:
it is black and silver, and all i needed was a case that has provision for two x 120mm quiet fans, and yes it does.arrived speedily. ( what a waste of Diesel) power knob keeps falling off, it has no guides.rear PCI J-bracket base had 1 pop rivet mangled,lucky I have a Pop rivet gun, drill and drill bits.case is so flimsy , if you flex case it really swists a full inch.this causes all PCI cards to pop out of slots.never move it with power on, (i am wise to this ,so would under no circumstances anyway) lucky for me, it is just for temporary usage.till a thing good from far away comes...I can see why cost-free shipping, seller is dumping them.That's ok, i was curious as to what I could get.

Comment:
Decent looking, Value, Holds parts. Cheap front panel construction, The grills fell off, the power button fell off, all had been fixable. Decent case for the income, I've utilized far better cases for just a tiny quantity far more.

Comment:
anything fits The stocked fan is not effective at all.They did really poor job with painting. I wouldn't recomand it. But if you don't have considerably funds? Have no choice.

Comment:
Simple style, looks slick, straightforward to install almost everything The power button genuinely is flimsy, the metal is a small on the thin side, but it does preserve the case light The reset button need to be pushed with a pen or screw driver, but can't be pushed with your finger, could be excellent or poor.

Solid steel construction, lots and lots of interior space, and quite affordable (After xxx and rebate). Great airflow with 2 120mm fans, the one it comes with is truly decent. Dated layout, which calls for more tools and patience than some of the newer designs. Scratches somewhat simply, and a couple of edges had been sharp sufficient to cut (although I've built too several machines to fall for that 1). Also 1 of the two side mesh grates popped off during shipping. I just pulled the bezel off and dabbed some locktite in there; bent the mesh round the pegs exactly where it was and now it's much more secure than it ever was. Fantastic (inexpensive) steel Full ATX case. Bezel is completely produced of plastic, which I like due to the fact it's effortless to modify. Immediately after rebate and with xxx, it weighs in at 19.99, with no PS. Fine by me, the added cash you save will buy you a superior PSU than anything that comes in a affordable case.

- Lots of drive bays- Blue power button light is cool- Particularly light- Included fan is quiet- AffordableSee Other Thoughts section if you want to completely understand my reasoning for giving this 5 eggs. As others have mentioned -- it is a little flimsy without having the sides on, but I didn't really feel this was worth deducting an egg considering that it feels fine when you have the sides on. I gave this case 5 eggs because it was what I expected for the price I was paying for it. I used this case to put together a cheap file-server that will ultimately have 3 or four drives in a RAID array. This has plenty of drive bays for that and I was in a position to put my MicroATX motherboard in just fine. I may possibly also look at making use of this case for spending budget PCs. Nonetheless, if you are putting together your next awesome gaming rig, I would appear elsewhere... :)

The pros are, its a mid tower and some what decent look, edges are bent inwards and lower the danger of cutting you're self. Cons are,that it doesn't have a side window and the 120 mill fan that comes with the case doesn't do a adequate job at pushing any air. Personally I would by no means get this case but i was making a program for my friend and he didn't want any side windows or something like that, over all hes happy with it and one more successful develop under my name :) thank you NewEgg!Develop Specs:Sigma Orca Cese,ASRock A780GMH렘M,Kuma 7750 X2 Proc,Sapphire 3850GC ,LOGISYS Computer system 575W PSU, 4GB WINTEC AMPX RAM,Western Digital Caviar Blue 320GB HD,LG Black 22X DVD.

Simple clean style. Brushed aluminum looks cool. Better airflow than a case I have that is twice the cost. Paint job is terrible, though I will be heavily modding and painting the case. Energy button requires to be glued in. Front grilles on the intakes for front fan fall out, need to have to be glued. Case is significantly a lot more sturdy and properly built than people today are giving credit for. As lengthy as you dont smash it into things or drop it, its fine.

I like that It's sturdy. I love that it's light. I loved the blue lights too, but got too vibrant to keep on all night. It does the job, its not to flimsy, and its simple to move. The bottom rubber stoppers had to be removed to fit on my desk, but I noticed that the metal corners on the bottom scraped my shelf to hell. Even a sharpie can't assist that one. The USB port in the front worked, then the one broke, so I just don't use anything on the front ports at all *unplugged entirely*. Rather, I installed an extra usb cards myself. *now i have the four on the back with the mobo, and 6 additional ones.Following becoming beat up, it nonetheless runs terrific. Actually just had to replace the rear fan simply because the vibrations got truly annoying. Other than scratching the desk shelf, and the usb/audio in the front, ive had no no main difficulties over the past 3 to four years i've had this case. oh, btw...the power switch button on it does fall off. use super glue as one more reviewer noted.
