My crappy 3 year old Chieftec Apollo....

Or is it?

Look what's inside, a Tuniq Tower and even a Geforce 8800 GTX, all with no modifications....

Never a degree above 45C, E6600 @ 3.2

Gave it a good cleaning since. Thought about getting a new one, but hey, why fix what ain't broke

As you say, if it aint broke...

Not the prettiest of cases however.

Raikiri · 20 Mar 2007 at 23:22

You could still clean the thing

agnes · 20 Mar 2007 at 23:22

looks like the case has seen better days and worse for that fact!

very well maintained mate, nice one

It might work, but a new case won't break it :p

Amazing what you can do with a can of Mr. Sheen and a pair of rubber gloves

That's not the RobinH with an unhealthy interest in cannons, is it?

Looks like a decent sized case that, few modifications and you're onto a winner. Nice setup btw!

Not very well, can see the dust from here

I like that cases' basic shape, could lose those stickers and maybe give it a proper good clean (take out all components), maybe even a new coat of paint!

I like my stickers! Its hidden away under my desk in a dark corner anyway, so it makes no odds.

I happen to have one of those too and it has been an outstanding case
