hi
has anyone had any experience with this case as i have been offered it for an extremely cheap price

Raikiri · 27 Jul 2007 at 13:22

I wouldn't use one unless someone paid me to

I have seen them in a shop, it was cheaply made, generic steel case with nasty plastic everywhere. Cooling will be fairly good but you'll have a hard time finding replacement fans if you ever need to and they just look horrible.

What about an Akasa Zen or Lian Li PC7?

was offered one with a350w power supply and 160 gig hardrive for £40 with reciepts showing that the guy had bought it from overclockers for £90

Just looked on OcUK and they're £70!! :eek:

I might go for huge fans if I was doing some kind of comical mod, but not buying something like that for that much!

PK!

so is it worth £40 for all that. the hardrive has warranty till 2010 and my current pc case is some generic one that ive had for 3 years

Begbie · 28 Jul 2007 at 17:31

Why not, keep the hard drive and flog the case on ebay for 40 and your sorted

flexo786 · 28 Jul 2007 at 22:41

got them both and got to say for £20 the case is well worth. large enough compared to my other case which was a bit cramped plus it looks alright under my desk. just needs a dust filter for the front fan

To be fair, it looks a bit better in black. Still wouldn't want one though.
