[Rezman5]

I wanted the cooler master, but didn't have the $200+ to spend on it. I will just have to make my own blow hole!

[Wicked Klown]

I have the MPC full Tower. I've added a Window and soon a custom box to bolt under it to house a 120mm YS-Tech and two 80mm Sunon fans, custom paint and two green strobes. Maybe someday I'll be do with it.

[SRB442]

Super Micro 760 C P4 Full tower

[William]

4Q Full Tower

[Mike K]

Some generic case, that was $22 AT NewEgg, and got $5 off when buying it with an AMD cpu. It's actually pretty neat: quick release for drives, cards, and side panel

[madmike]

I'm currently building my computer into a CoolerMaster ATC 201-SX. I'm absolutely thrilled with it. I did a lot of research and it seems that CoolerMaster is listening to people's wants and making changes. For example my Enermax power supply went in easily. Many of the reviews you read online say that was a problem. Looks like they fixed it.

Got it for $225, which hurt when I doled it out, but now that it's sitting on my desk, it's worth every penny!

[Ploaf]

Just picked up an Antec sx1030 from Newegg in the last week. Very nice case. also very heavy.

Yea madmike, with that slide out PSU tray, my Enermax 431W fit without any problems. They have made their fan guards flush with the PSU casing now, so no more worries. I see you bought yours at Newegg.com like I did. Great case ;)

The guy said it was Lian Li PC82 but I think he may have made a mistake and maybe it was pc62 cause i havent seen an 82 anywhere else, hmm maybe it was last years model bit its a sweet case i really like it, specialy the fan speed control and how everything slides out.

[PsycoPhreak]

I got several generic cases, an Inwin (not sure of the model) and a case I can't identify anywhere, maybe someone can? this thing is already under modifications ( the pics are older, from about 2 months ago when my camera ACTUALLY worked) I think its a great looking case, I would like to know who makes it ( wasn't cheap! )

can anyone ID this?

[Sonny]

PsycoPhreak's case;

[KILLorBE]

Not sure (threw away the box), but it is some young yang pang wang yin:p big tower case that I bought at a computer fair for $60 with a 250W PSU (Modded the case with another 235W PSU).
I really like it, its CE approved and has a NICE slide out motherboard tray (no need to remove cards).

I've seen similar cases with a different bezel.

**EDIT** I have a few other generic cases, 1 Compaq desktop, 1 Mid tower which houses a 486 100MHz Intel Overdrive and another crappy PB case.

**EDIT 2** I remembered that I have another crappy desktop case in my shed, getting rusty and collecting dust.:p

[KILLorBE]

Here's a pic (sorry cant show you the front, I'm still busy modding)

[reidroach]

antec full tower 6 fans on chasis including the psu fan, great case! runs very cool!

[reidroach]

ahhh, i have the same case as texasfit. best one i everowned also! very well made, sturdy! looks sleek

[Henry Rollins II]

I got the case on the picture. It´s an Antec. Or was it Chieftec?

I almost bought a Lian-Li alu case with an Enermax PS. I was in the store with the money in my hand when I suddenly realized that I was about to pay 350 buck for a dust collector under my desk. :burn:

It has a nice Chassis but the original outer shell was a paint to open. So (naturally) I made my own out of Bulletproof Lexan.

[dreadlord79]

3 generic. 1 full tower with 300P/S, 2 mid-tower 1 with 400watt P/S and the other without a P/S. Mid-tower with 400watt P/S has 1.4 AMD and 3 extra fans plus 2 in P/S and HSF. Full tower going to little sister has 300watt P/S and a K6-2 400.

alot of razor sharp edges, a cardboard side panel with 1 holms

I bought a Codegen 8011 and I love the flexability. It came with the 350 Codegen PSU and it seems to work good too. I only have Athlon 1100 now but someday I will have a XP 2100+, and the case runs the Athlon at 46c on air with only one case fan in the top.

[fmah]

Inwin Q500 full tower (~5 years old) and Inwin midtower. Both beige/white color. Their new black ones look nice.

[EmTSea19]

Kingwin KT-436WM 3-Window in Silver.

I love the case. It's my first computer build and it's really easy to work in. Great slide out Motherboard Tray, Thumbscrews, slide out Drive Bay. It looks great to me. The only problem is the windows scratch and stain rather easily. I have fingerprints on the windows I can't get off, just from pulling off the side panels.*lol*

I suggest that anyone buying this case use white gloves right out the box! It's too late for me, *lol*.

[nerdlogic]

A Directron case that my fiancee picked. :D

[jbbumper]

Lian-Li PC-71/Lian-Li PC-82/Generic Full Tower. The Lian-Li PC-71
is extra deep which allows room for the large MB's and ventilation.
Very nice and I got it for $150 with many X-tras (fans, drive coolers, and a cathode light) at an auction site. Pardon me while I wipe the drool off. And no I don't want to sell it. HeHe

how do you make hidden cd drives? like how do u attach the plate?

[modenaf1]

Greasy Burger, what type of case is that? did you have to purchase the window/sidepanel seperatly?

[modenaf1]

how do you open the "stealthed" dvd drive?

[RangerJoe]

i have it so the cardboard just hits the button, works rather well actually

[modenaf1]

do you just push on the front ?

Lian-Li 62 and realy like it with a 520 W PC Power & Cooling PS. No more flaky happenings-- so far.

[rrster]

Greasy burger,
you might want to stick your Cathode next to the window panel vertically. Looks a hella of a lot better. I have and Antec Plus View. I have mine vertically on the Window panel.
I will put up the pictures once, I finish building the rig.

I would have liked to put it on the back panel vertically, so that it remains in the case, and I don't have to worry about it when I open up the window panel, but cathode gets in the way of the door lock. So had to place it on the other side of the window.

3 black mid towers, 3 5.25 bays, 2 3.5 bays. 1 fan premounted on the side, one in front with 4 spots to mount more fans. No link, I think George may have sold me the last ones, he gave me a good deal.

A server case similar to this one
http://servercase.com/cgi-bin/miva.cgi?/Merchant2/merchant.mv+Screen=PROD&Store_Code=SC&Product_Code=CK8950&Category_Code=ALS
Except mine has a 3.5 and 5.25 above the door.

The rest are generic tan mid towers.

Antec Plusview 1000AMG the sweetest i have ever seen

[Clutch_Head]

got my new rig in my old generic box. was going to get the AMS G-Mono
but i changed my mind.

the chieftec/Antec cases have that silly latch that would hinder my plans
for a duct mod for the CPU. the SONATA (http://www.antec-inc.com/pro_details_enclosure.php?ProdID=15138) would be perfect if it wasn't for
the latch and front fan location. so i'm going for the SLK3700AMB (http://www.antec-inc.com/pro_details_enclosure.php?ProdID=93700).
