Just letting people know they are in stock a day early. Just in case others have been wanting another case other than the Q-Pack or pay crazy $$ for the Fragbox2. Looks nice.. if it's anything like my LC10M then it's gonna be a tank.

Oh.. they are $169 if anyones wondering.

$200 with shipping and no power supply

It's not a Q-Pack... It's a Silverstone. Maybe it's not cheap compared to a Q-Pack.. but it's cheap compared to the Fragbox2 even tho Silverstone makes the cases for FB2. Sure.. $169 w/out ps is a lot to some people... but to many people on this board.. it's worth it. I am sure it a lot more solidly built than most sff.
 
Hmmm yeah ive got a fragbox2. If im not mistaken silverstone is the manufacture of the FB2 and from the looks of this compared to my FB2 id say thats right on key. This case the silver stone one is better from the looks of things more modding potential and it has 4 USB in front :eek: and 2 5.25" 's :D


Edit:He must type faster than I
 
200$ shipped isnt a bad deal, considering i paid 330$ shipped for a fragbox ;)

"Many" people? Well I don't use my case as a soccer ball, so I don't really care how sturdy it is. As long as it does not disintigrate when I push the power button, I am golden. :cool: For $193.24 on a box that just holds your stuff - that just seems wasteful. Nice looking case, but the X-Qpack looks to have the better design. Where do you put your drives?

haha I am sure most people don't use their main boxes for soccer balls either.. but there "are" differences in quality. Look at mid/full towers. Why are there expensive ones when the cheap ones will do? because there is a choice.. and some choose to pay a little more to get something of higher quality. I for one.. don't like plastic all over my case. I prefer steel or aluminum. We never had a choice other than maybe a Q-Pack,Aria, or Fragbox for mATX sff cases. It's more than just sturdiness for some people... aesthetics are important to a lot of people too.

I don't know if Q-Pack is a better design or not.. but I am pretty sure their won't be an issue with the dvd/cd drive being too long with the Silverstone.

I am sure a Silverstone or Coolermaster owner is a different type of owner than someone that's happy with the quality of the latest "transformer head" atx case w/ it's 600watt ps. ;)
