Suggestions for Computer Case

[weh]

. . . it looks nice, but.....uhh...lol?

Uhh, what? Yes, it is made in Taiwan. Am I missing something?

Oh, no. im just being cynical about thats sticker "Finest Quality Craftsmanship" followed by "Made in Taiwan". My personal experiance with such products, isn't too good. Some would instinctively group "Taiwan" with "cheap", due to their mass-produced childrens toys, and fiberboard furniture. Not trying to be offensive, sorry if seems that way.


For all i know that case could stop a bullet.

Okay, conceded. Some Taiwanese product is of very poor quality. Same can be said of some product from many countries, including the USA.

However, the two top mobo manufacturers are Asus and Gigabyte -- both Taiwanese companies. And Lian Li is probably the Rolls Royce of computer case manufacturers (to Silverstone's Bentley - Silverstone having been formed by a group of Lian Li employees).

However, I wouldn't expect a Lian Li case to stop a bullet -- it's made of light-weight aluminum -- not steel & kevlar.

Taiwan is rarely synonymous with quality, however Lian-Li definitely is. That's why they carry a much bigger $$$

Is the case loud at full speed?
Also why not get the Antec Skeleton case?

Its dead freaking quiet. To me, I don't care AT ALL how loud it is. I am always listening to loud metal, so it doesn't bother me. However, even at full speed it is quiet. The fans in my room are louder.

And I still plan on building my PVC skeleton case. Will post pics when its done if anyone wants to see it.

I have the Nine-Hundred Case and I like it alot but the damn lights inside keep me up at night! lol

Lately I have been shutting down the PC at night so that the lights won't keep me up and so that my room will be cooler (it's in my bedroom)

Same here. I have to turn it off (which is why I am messing with sleep mode) at night, and during the day. I live in Arizona, so it is about 115 F in the afternoon. My room hits 90 F if I leave my PCs on. >_<

Yeah it's not that hot here in Maryland but my room feels like 90 F!

With my 32" LCD TV and my PC it is way hot

I would say this if you have the money

I tricked my friend into getting one. He got the one with skulls and there are only 500 made. It looks sweet.

Anyone looked at this not my taste but some may like it > Antec Skeleton Computer Case/Frame

I remember when this came out. To be honest, I don't really like how it looks. Too different of a shape. I mean, different is nice, but I don't like how it is. If it were roughly the same rectangular shape as most cases (so it fits in the same spots), but was a skeleton.....
I am still going to build my PVC skeleton case sometime..... Maybe my tech teacher will let me borrow some of his metal and the welder..... Hmmmmm.......

Thinking on this

I have an orginal Coolermaster ATCS my sons case Im going to steal it back so thinking on that if I were to buy another case I would seriously have to look at the new ATCS case Hands on live like.
All the original fans work in it still after wow what 13 years I look at most of the new cases and think well in a year this or that fancy plastic thing will rattle break be in the way or Slice my finger open.
All aluminum no plastic easy access clean looking quiet no sharp edges Plenty of room Are what made it last and stand out Stil to this day.
Motherboards Vid cards Psu's Sitting on shelfs obsolete a good case will outlast all of them.

ATCS 840 - Cooler Master

Dont let a case become a Close encounter of the third kind Ufo lightshow!
