Looking for Girly case

Looking for a case that a girl might think is pretty/attractive, I've found this:

http://www.tweaknews.net/reviews/inwin_allure_case_review/

She likes this, but it's not big enough for a regular ATX motherboard, and she wants the option to go SLI at some point, as well as having adequate air cooling. Anyone know of any midtowers or towers that have this kind of look? or any other elegant designs a girl might like? i actually happen to like that design, so i guess it's not just for girls ;D
 
what about buying a normal case and throwing a paint job or some vinyl on it?
 
This one looks awful girly, however I'm skeptical about it being able to cool an SLI setup.

What is your buget? May I recomend something like a Lian-Li or Silverstone annodized pink?
 
If your girl knows what an SLI is, i doubt she cares about a pink girly case.

I'd also check for balls.
 
Unless your girl is 10 years old she'd probably prefer something elegant and sexy not something that looks like her 1st grade lunch box.

That's F'n funny, thanks for that. Back on topic, women like all kinds of different crap. One of my girlfriends was looking at me browsing and saw that pink case up above, and now I gotta replace her case. That's just how it goes.

Have her look at all the cases you find and just let her pick, which is how it's gonna end up anyways I imagine.
 
If you are willing to spend a lot of money, you could have someone like Smooth Creations paint a case for you. Or, she could live with a standard case, or you could get a spray can of pink.
 
Whats wrong with just black? Be willing to pay for a standard case for the girl, but if she wants a designer one that costs a bunch, I would make that skank pay the difference.
 
Just because she may want something girly, doesn't mean to say that a pink monster is what she may be into. Look for a quality white case with chrome or brushed aluminum accents. Girly, but not wussy. If I see anything, I'll post it.

Haha, that case is pretty gay. It would be better if when I looked at the front bezels one of the colors would have been flamer orange.

Well, one of the colors for the front bezel accents is 'Fiji Orange'...
 
Check here they have lots of colors like red, yellow, and lime green.http://www.apevia.com/category.php?cid=47

like this one of theres is kinda girly and cheap http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811144212

or this not as girly but my gf would love the color http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811144045

or heres one thats a gay blue color a chick might like http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811226008

personally I would pick something functional then mod it, that way it gives you something to do and your gf will appreciate that you spent time, and made something for her.
 
You'd have to find a case that vinyl would stick to, but getting a plain old case and some vinyl cutouts on it would be a decent option, they're meant for walls, so you'd have to be careful on sizes, but check out the options from domestic: http://www.domestic.fr/index.php?serie=3 some nice stuff there
 
I like the blue Sigma one in an odd sort of way...

Have you thought of getting a decent case and spraying it over with some automotive paint? Saw a red A05B looking dead sexy. Could put some vinyl cutouts too.
 
The case my woman picked was a Coolermaster Centurion, all silver and stuff... good pick, and not too $$$.

To 'girly' it up, I added a window into the side so she could look in, which at first she didnt like, but then I put red/blue LED fans inside so it was purple/pink looking and then I put some of that RAM on the inside from Corsair with the LCD readouts, and programmed it to say " Anita's Computer / Anita loves XXX / XXX Loves Anita" and she ate it right up.

That mirrored idea isnt bad either... what girl doesnt want an extra mirror (okay, a fat & ugly one who plays warcraft all day)?

Wow, that's actually really nice. May get this for the GF =P
 
Kinda looking for the same thing. Girl I know wants a hot-pink case but can't seem to find one anywhere. She knows her stuff decently on hardware (a shock, I know) but can't find the uber-girly case shes looking for.

As strange as it is, looks like I'll be keeping an eye on this thread...
