My boss used that case to build his kids pc (5 and 7), its not a bad case, well built and good features, dosent look half bad either

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

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

The snail needs two little feeler things like on a proper snail, I sense the + version may have them

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

Yewen this would have to be mine

I think that looks pretty nice espcally the real dark photo, and for £15 you can't complain tbh.

A 201 sx2 at a really bad angle just showing of the paint finnish, you sir have no taste

ATCs case as one of the least favourite cases, it can not be

Anything that has a car shaped front.....

Just browse the gaming/modding case section on a certain site that sounds a bit like a well known auction site, theres many of them there.
I once bought a case from them for £5 though, didn't look so bad once I had painted it....

I know someone who has that case i think, I'm sure i saw that on my best friends's bro's (aunties' second cousin's...) floor.

As for Ugly; Raidmax XE 901 or XG Viper anyone?

Yewen · 18 Mar 2006 at 22:23

I presume your talking to me, my own case is an antec super lanboy and i thought that case was better built than mine, i think the case cost about £60 ex vat, the front panel felt a lot more sturdy then my case and it was very easy to work with.

Not all cheap/bad looking cases are rubbish, we use foxconn cases in work and although they are cheap they look decent enough and are very well made.

Yewen · 19 Mar 2006 at 14:02

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.

So you did

I'm happy with my Dragon, though i was tempted to post the other dragon above, so i don't think anyone wants the viper. What a pity..

I had a 1650 as my first case, though it was a bit small for a main rig where stuff is getting put in and changed around a lot. Damn nice inside though.
