It now ways just under 80 pounds

[Dome]

you got a few [x ] :( anyhow the window case looked pretty good, nothing horribly originial but nice and clean.

anyhow how do you get that bitch to weigh 80 pounds?

i am planning to buy the antec version of that case which weighs 30 pounds w/ just the psu. are you using water cooling? i mean are the guts of a computer really that heavy and i just never noticed? (i'm just too strong so i think many things like cars and refrigerators light weight ;))

my enermax case weighs 40lbs with nothing in it...not even a power supply

Can't see many pics.

i mean i got no problems with it being heavy, cuz i mean a well built case is going to be heavy. my question is: how heavy is all the junk you put INTO the case?

beats me...want me to go weigh it?

No way that thing weighs 80 pounds, I have the same steel case but I haven't cut it up to add a window to it yet, I also have 6 hard drives, 3 optical drives, and one monster slk-800, a 9600 aiw, a raid controller, an ide controller, the all important floppy, 6 case fans, a 550 watt true control power supply with the bay thing installed, and the sucker weighs in around 60 pounds.

ok my scale is screwed up...i weighed it with all my stuff in it and it said it weighed less than it did with all my stuff in it....and i want leaning aginst it or any thing the first time i weighed it....

i'm just going to say its heavy...heaviest case i have ever owned
