Why are you spending £560 on an SSD drive and only £80 on a graphics card ?

:D

Maybe that's the reason they have "funny kids" :p

Anyway, with regard to the question in hand, most girls I've built PC's for actually like (shock horror) the same things I do. Simplistic, tasteful (no garish lighting, no stupid plasticated moldings, etc), cases. My Coolermaster ATCS-201-SXK and my Lian Li PC-A71F have been well received by girlfriends that have seen them. The only other case I've ever bought for a girl was a perspex one, but then she was a bit odd, lol.
 
Hi

I'm looking for a cute case for my girl friend. Do you guy have any good looking case in mind ?

Thanks ;)
Depends on her taste and price range but these may be okay. Not great at picking out girl cases though :/ I'm more recommending decent cases that are not garish and overly boy like than girly style.

She .. take it from me :( Girl dont need any sense :D.

Thanks all, I think I will go for the simple fractal design, and paint it in light pink color. She like this color, wish me luck,never paint any case before.

Just realize that there is a potential market for "girly case", case manufacter has forgot the fact that geek have girlfriend too :(.
 
get her a level ten

girls like Overpriced, poor quality, strange looking, badly made clothing and bags that they pay way too much money for

apply this to the case choice :D
 

+1 on this - I was planning on using this in a build for my girlfriend but ended up using an InWin case because it came free with a power supply when you bought an intel core2quad a couple months ago.

If that deal wasn't on (which meant she got a much more powerful computer for the same price) then I would have went for that Lian Li case. It's gorgeous, the finish on it is really fantastic and it's got great airflow so you should be able to keep it nice and quiet.
 
He's going to be using a full ATX motherboard though, so that's not really going to work.

I would say get a Lian Li (there's a shock, coming from me :p). They're generally clean, simple and well made. She can't really dislike it.

Good point, I reckon an Antec Skeleton then, just to confuse the bejesus out of her :p
 
i am a girl, i like silver cases, if its not a big build u cant go far wrong with the lian li v351s or the antec p180 range anything sleek and not black with big flashing leds and make sure its quiet we dont like noisy fans ;) i also like the fractal but unless u r gonna fill it with hdds seems pointless for 1 ssd and 1 hdd.

LOL :D.

The fractal seems a good choice.

Wow, just checked the Lian-Li cases and all of them are either red or black, no silver :confused:.
