Why, is it busy on a Sunday?

Only joking.

Excellent find for a second PC. :cool:

That case is awesome

I still have mine as my second PC/server.

My case progression went :

OcUK Modified Globalwin 802 > Aopen HX-08 Full Server Tower > Globalwin 802 > Lian Li PC7+

It's nice to hear that the trusty old 802's are still in use

Our 2 old 802's (6 years old now :eek:

) are still in daily use, one after being used very heavily, taken to all sorts of LAN's etc and surviving about 4 upgrades is now being used by my dad for his machine, the other is now being used by my nephew

They were one of the first really good, affordable cases, and are still hard to beat in terms of build quality, ease of uses, features and price - the only real reason I'm not using one now is because I needed better cooling

If Globalwin were to release a new version with 120mm fans as standard (and preferably anti-vibrations mounts for the hard drives), I would be cueing up to get one.

wow didnt think people still used them they were a great case might have a look at re spraying it black and using it again shame to let it sit in the shed unloved

My mums PC still uses the 802 as does a friends. My old modded 802 with 2x 120mm fans is in the shed I believe.

Whats the rest of its specs mate? That could be ok for my kids.

ditto, and it one thing worrying me about my latest idea for the server...

i currently have a 1800mhz XP (Barton i think) on the board, it has a silent CPU fan (a REALLY small one) but even so, the temperature is 60c!!!

I have my main gaming PC in one.
Its one of the black ones and is heavily modded - has two 80mm and one 120mm intakes and three 80mm outtakes - a nice window - sprayed black inside - grill added to front for air intake.
I have another one here and recently sold my Ocuk tornado version.

Richard_Y · 1 May 2006 at 13:21

lol me too my main pcs still in one granted its fairly striped out now and usually never has a side on and all the fans it came with as a ocuk modded case are gone infavor of a quieter option but i *** it hehe
