Well, I was pleasantly surprised with the Warlock. It not only has the looks but the performance to back it up - and quiet too! It appears as if Apevia has finally got its act together ... to a degree. Unfortunately, there were several small annoyances with the Warlock: unthreaded screw holes, an odd rainbow paint coat, and combining connectors onto a single cable - things I hate seeing on such a high-end product.
