GMC PC Cases

[Jake_Barnes]

Just emailed the GMC PC Case people in Korea reference their case material. They wrote that all of their cases were steel, except the A500 (aluminum). Some interesting looking boxes (ad on THG start pg) - no US distributor yet - they say they will have US distribution in July.

The boxes are 1mm steel - heavy (compared to aluminum) but designed to be less noisey. Some interesting cases in the line. Look for the noise dampening solutions.

My case has perty thick steel and it's pretty quite when the side panels r on, too bad they never are hehe.

All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening.

They ARE 1.0mm steel? I'll be damned, I could have sworn they were thinner. well then, buy one! They have nice designs, so if they are made from good material, what more could you want?

BTW, thanks for proving it to me, I'll have another case to recommend to my friends and customers!

Can't - GMC says they won't be availabe in US until late July - now the question is where. I only investigated 2 cases and they claimed 1mm steel w/ rolled edges (?).
I'll be looking at cases until then, I expect - any steel ideas on those Cheftec cases?

I've investigated further myself. It seems that the Noblesse SE, X21, and Neo Classic all have the same chassis, so all should be thick. The G20, M20, and M25 appear to be crap. I can't tell what to think of the T40.

There appear to be other brands importing the original Noblesse case.
