I need a cool looking case...

[Virus]

I need a case that looks case and performs well too for under $200, any suggestions?

 

[RedDeathDrinker]

If you've the inclination and the time, get a generic case (mine was £30) and modify it to suit. Blowholes, inlet and outlet fans, it's all easily done.

And it saves you a pile of cash as well!

But I believe you can get a Lian Li(?) aluminium case for under $200.....


Try the Alternative Modding section of our fine forums for more case related info!

Hi Virus, welcome to the Forum,
I like very much the Juno P6 full tower for all the room available and for the pretty look, check this link for more info.

another Nikao case

Another black case from Nikao... Mirror

This one is like the Black Ice, but it has 4 big bays and 2 small bays, + 4 hidden small bays. The bay cover plates are convex mirrors. No side blow-holes though. See a picture of it a newegg.com

How about Koolance? Really nice cases and you can show off inside it there's water cooling so damn what an upgrade 2 for 1 instead of other deals.
