$160? I think I'd rather spend the extra $100 on a better monitor since it's what you look at 99% of the time you use the computer... Or at least a better CPU/GPU combination.
They need to take notes from Corsair and Lian Li. Sheesh.
A seemingly proper design Nothing wrong with an enclosure that's not gaudy, is there? If you feel you need to attract attention with your PC case go for simple lighting or something. Not an enclosure that makes your rig look like a toy. I guess to each there own.
this case does most of those well except for handle and smooth possibly sturdy?.
....what?
Very happy with my wife's case (In Win "Alpha", white with pretty vector art plants on it, and lets not forget the sequins :-P). Bought it on sale 4 years ago and the 3 times I have had to open it up (routine cleanings, and a recent HDD failure) I have always been surprised at how easy it was to work on. Sadly I was not able to find the non-girley one a few years later when my case finally died in an unfortunate lan party incident; but the cheap $40 case I found (a thermaltake) is simple, black, and has plenty of space for HDDs and fans which is all I need
I'm currently using the Corsair 600T white version which is simple, has good airflow, and sturdy. THAT IS ALL a case needs. It doesn't have to look like I'm concealing a nuclear warhead inside the case.
Interesting looking... yes.
I can't imagine it being fun to clean once dust settles into all those nooks and crannies.
Options are a good thing, people. Don't like it, don't buy it.
