Inspired by Noni's favourite case thread, I thought we could do with its opposite number.

So go on then, bar the Vento what is your least favourite case (Vento would make it too easy!)

Can be past or present, now here is mine!

Thermaltake Xaser III VM3000A: Skull Series is my worst case ever.

I was the not so proud owner of one for a few years, the side panel bent through normal operation, the paint flaked, and the front opened up instead of the door once.

No where near as good as the Cheiftec dragon it tried to rip off, and for that reason it is my worst case ever (bar the Vento :p) I am glad I binned it!

So then, whats yours?
 
For thoose of you who do not know the legendary case that is the asus Vento here it is in all its glory:

Ninja Turtle maybe? :p
 
Surely there are worse cases than the snail, it may not be much of a looker but it is still built like a Lian Li which has to count for something :p
 
It was made so thermaltake would copy it :p

I agree that batch of Lian Li cases was a bit off, the V series and the newer 101/201 G series and the oh so nice S80 one though looks set to be a killer range.

what is that? :p

Spider case by someone, but look at the design flaw on the front USB panel, at least in that picture it appears that it would need to be on the edge of a desk to open properly :confused:

Gotta love the thought they put into some of these cases, and the build quality always shines through the cheap plastic, well, maybe...
 
Having never used one of them before, what other cases have you used to consider it to be well built, as usually thoose sorts of cases have the pressed steel interiors and nothing else.
 
The minotaur, the first bad case I know OcUK to stock, and then they brought it back :p

That is worse than the snail, at least the snail is built well :D

The snail needs two little feeler things like on a proper snail, I sense the + version may have them :p
 
No Comment :p

Remove the blowhole on the side, and it is not a bad side panel design though, but OTT but I have seen a lot worse.

For £15 it does not look to bad, its when the gaming cases comparable to that cost near enough £100 that things get silly :p
 
A 201 sx2 at a really bad angle just showing of the paint finnish, you sir have no taste :p

ATCs case as one of the least favourite cases, it can not be :p
 
foxconn is a good brand, the antec 1650 is a great case aswell!

Not all cheap cases are bad, some real bargains to be had, but gaming cases it is really unusual to find one that is of reasonable quality for a reasonable price, bar thermaltake.
 
You can not do that of the mag, why I said within the forum rules.

Looks like I may have to buy one, but for a nasty case, do not think it is worth it!
