Review: Vigor's Quadfather Uses AMD Quad FX CPUs

Optical Drive

Floppy Drive

A floppy drive is still required for loading RAID controller drives when installing Windows, but there is no need to waste an entire bay on this rarely-used device. Our configuration includes an eight-in-one multi-format memory card drive above the floppy disk slot.

Power Supply

Dual 8800GTX graphics cards and dual processors add up to a tremendous power load, so this Vigor Force Recon QX4 came equipped with an Enermax Galaxy EGX1000EWL power supply. It features a semi-modular design with the often-used cables soldered-in and the less-used cables plugged in.

A quick glance at Vigor Gaming's current parts list instead shows the 1100W Tagan TurboJet model TG1100-U96, with a slightly higher rated capacity and a whole bunch of positive reviews to prove it just might be the better part.
