Title: New case
Post by: Samwise on January 06, 2003, 10:31:22 AM

When (and if) I upgrade my PC I\'ll need a new case. I was planning on getting this (or similar):

Then I saw this one and thought it looked pretty neat. :eek:

What do you guys think?

second one looks the best.  Mine just sits under my desk.  I couldn\'t even tell you what color the thing is.

Second one looks kinda like a Mac G4 case.  The general shape of it anyway.

Looks the best, IMO.  That first case is too common... I see lots of people with it.  I like having unique cases you don\'t normall see.

Heh, I was actually considering that last one as well. I like the overall "G4 look" of the 2nd one I posted though.

eeggh THX. Those are horrible. Looks like somebody went to the junkyard for materials IMO.

Chieftec/Antec for pure performance.
Coolermaster or Lian Li for looks

I hate those cases that look so busy, like the Thermaltake one you just posted sg and the ones from colorcases IIRC that THX posted.

Simplicity is the key to beauty IMO, less is more.

See. :D

I know the case is packed full of nice stuff, what I mean they always have to design them to look so busy.

Bah, those cases suck.  Ugly.  The best one in this thread is the G4 looking one Sammy posted.

Title: New case
Post by: slick on January 08, 2003, 01:12:46 PM

the only problem with a case like that suntek, g4 looking case is that you wont have drives that match the case.  i hate looking at these cool cases, titanium in look, with beige/grey drives in them.

here is what i have:

except mine doesn\'t have the window, and it was only $40.
