July 19, 201114 yr Evening all, Allow me to vent some frustration for a moment. So I order all the parts for my build last week, most of them coming from within Canada, but a few coming up from the States. Now as you may (or may not know) the Fan wall is not available in Canada (or from what I can find, even shipped to Canada). However, since I was ordering a few parts, I decided to order the fan plate and have it shipped to the border where I would pick it up (it's about an hour away from my home). So today I have confirmation that everything has been delivered, and my wife and I head down to pick everything up. Turns out that my fan plate has gone missing and nobody knows where it is. USPS won't help me because I'm a Canadian citizen, and it's not worth it to order another one (as the gas + shipping + part) would exceed $50. I swear, this build is cursed, and it hasn't even started yet.
July 19, 201114 yr Ah Yes the Norco curse, been there. Funny story, a friend of mine went for the 4224 recently, got a rev2 case instead of a rev3, it ha all sorts o problems like my first one. Return it to mwave. Order one from newegg and received a rev1, the one with the USB port in the front... How to garantee you get the rev 3, it's like plain the lotto, good luck with your build!

I just got a rev1 4224 this week from newegg.. I was irriteated... not because it wasa rev1, but because it was missing all of the screws. im still waiting on newegg to call me back about this. they claim they are looking for "screws" for me. This build is for someone else so I might have to sacrifice one of my personal rev2's just to make my deadline while new egg dances around an RMA.
