Meh. For a full tower, yeah, ok. All aluminum though? I'd think a full tower might merit steel construction.

There are other cases that come to mind at or even less than $100.

We've known about the Ultra line of products for a while now. Still have yet to see their carbon fiber case on sale.

CF case? Where do I sign up?

 

[Gazoo]

A friend of mine wants that but cant find a decent place to buy it.

 

[Velocities]

That's an ugly case!

 

[munkle]

That's an ugly case!

Yup.

As somebody said in the ghetto mod thread:

Cardboard = wood = carbon + fiber
Therefore, carbon fiber = cardboard.

(Something to that effect)

It's just another cheap rip off of the Antec SX1040 and as the Chieftech Dragon.

Meh.........

Those chieftec cases are monsters, but the layout's just not good

Not any more. Back in the day it was the best thing around. I'd still take one over some of the cheaper tacky ass cases floating around out there, but case design has just evolved quite a bit and the limitations of that older design are more apparent.

This case doesn't look all that bad. I actually really liked the Chiefty case designs, everyone copied it. This design actually looks thoroughly improved. I would like if it shaved the little inch or so between the PSU and mobo down a bit to make it a tad shorter, but the case itself looks pretty cool.

Wouldn't choose it myself over say a Silverstone or Lian Li, or some of the newer cases, but I can see the appeal.

I had a full steel Antec back in the day, was heavy as shit, then got an Aspire X-Alien, which was same design but Aluminum, wasn't a bad case either.

Definitely looks like the old Antec's. Only thing I like is the reversible hard drive cages. Seems lots of places are putting in one or two cool things. I'm hoping the Lian Li PC-A17B will be my next case, since it's supposed to incorporate all the cool features I like into one case.

I still can't find shit on that case! Waiting........

For $70, you can't really beat that case with a stick. It doesn't come with any fans, but that could be a blessing. Put some sound dampening, and some S-Flex fans in there and you've got a more than decent platform.

That's what I meant. The PSU right smack in the middle of the case, and the 80/92 mm fans aren't good anymore.
