Aside from those who make their own insane case mods, the computer cases on the market today are still of the boxy, rectangular variety. There's nothing wrong with that, as such towers make it easy to store and stack our systems.
For those who want something with a more organic flavor, Lian Li has this seashell case:
Lian Li calls it the special edition PC-U6 Cowry, which the company says "exhibits personality and craftsmanship while breaking free of simply being a box to house components" that is "not meant to be hidden under a desk but instead incorporated into its surroundings as a part of decoration and reflection of taste."
Inside it can accommodate three 3.5" and two 2.5" internal HDDs. All of the HDD mounts are tool-less and come with anti-vibration thumb screws with rubber suspension. Externally, one 5.25" ODD tool-less mount is located at the top of the front-panel. Four, ventilated PCI slots are located on the back-panel with enough space to mount graphics cards as long as 310mm. Micro-ATX or Mini-ITX motherboards mount using thumb-screws within the PC-U6 Cowry as well as a standard ATX PS/2 power supply unit that mounts at the base of the case right above ventilating holes protected by a washable air filter.
Two side-panel 120mm fans also come with washable air filters. A fan speed control-switch has been included as well. Two rubber-ringed holes are also included for users to be able to easily mount a liquid cooling system.
The front panel has two USB 3.0 ports, one e-SATA port, and HD audio ports. Finally, if shape wasn't stylish enough, a 530mm red LED kit is included.
The all-aluminum case weighs in at 4.5kg. Its dimensions are 219mm x 500mm x 410mm.
It'll set you back $349; but can you really put a price on style?
