I just can't get over the sheer number
of drive bays in the OCD-3333. With six 5.25" and six 3.5" drive bays I don't
think I'll ever be able to fill them all up. If you have a lot of stuff that
take up drive bays, this is the case for you.
Performance wise, the OCD-3333 kept my
system well within the safe limits of my overclocked Pentium 3. It's not as
powerful as an OCD-3344 but it's no where near as loud or as expensive. During
the week I had my system in the OCD-3333, temp readings never exceeded 80F. This
is really good performance as it was only 8F above room temp. You can't really
complain about that.
All in all I have to give the nod to
this case weather your pursuit is to have a good case to house your overclocked
system or you simply want a lot of room to expand because this case covers all
the bases in spades. With the casters it is easy to roll around. Just don't roll
it around with the kids near by. They'll want a ride. :-)
The OCD-3333 has a stylish face and
nicely semi-recessed buttons that are easy to get at but won’t be in the way.
It’s hard to imagine going back to a 17” case after stretching out your legs so
to speak in this behemoth of a case. Priced at $120, it's about the same prices
as what high quality full tower cases sell for WITHOUT any fans or blow holes.
When you factor those into the equation, the OCD-3333 is quite a bargain.
