Fractal Core 1000 Unbox & Build Preview Part 1 of 2

Unboxing and case review of the Fractal Core 1000 budget Micro-ATX mid-tower case. Included are detailed review of the unique hard drive/SSD mounting system as well as an overview of the difficulty finding a cooler that could cope with an Intel i7 3770K Ivy Bridge processor.

The CPU cooler that finally worked was a Zalman CNPS7200CULED with a 92mm radial-mounted fan (parallel to the motherboard.)

This PC turned out well, and with a GPU card added turned out to be a sweet Photoshop and gaming rig.

Build log video to follow in Part 2 of 2.
