BLING BLING!<BR><BR><edit><BR>I had to post quickly so as to avoid competition for first post but now I have some content to add...<BR><BR>Check out my case right <a target=new class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.colorcases.com/cases/1605.html">here</a>. I currently have 3 cathodes in there, 2 blue one red set up in a table like structure, one blue in front one in back and the red on the top. This setup is uber seksay due to the fact that the blue lights everything up and red gives a nice glowing outline on the top of all the innards. Purrrr. <BR></edit>

I have mixed opinions about colorcases.com as a company. My case is all aluminum so it's rather delicate as far as cases go, but as for visual appeal it is quite good. One thing that does massively suck about it though is the internal construction; you have to take out the whole motherboard to get at the power supply and the screws that mount the motherboard are brutal on the metal. All-in-all I wouldn't really recommend the cases unless your primary target is sexiness factor. As far as hardware, don't buy it; I purchased a "Raidmax Stealth 500 Watt Aluminum Power Supply" from them only to find out that I was not shipped what I ordered. Furthermore, I discovered that there is no such thing as a Raidmax Stealth. They took a photo of the Vantec Stealth and called it Raidmax. I am investigating filing a small claims law suit because of my troubles. In a nutshell: I do not recommend colorcases.com.
Hey Lakario I was looking at buying that exact same case the other day. Well I think it was the same. Comes with three case fans and 350wat power supply for $150.00 AUD which is around $90.00 US

I spent too much I guess. My 3 fans were extra (not too much extra) and I had to pay $77 for my 500watt PSU.

I must have my finances all mixed up. I pay more for just a PS, than you guys budget for a Case & PS. I think I need my own financial advisor.

But it comes with 6 case fans (7 all up including the fan in the PSU), a 350watt PSU and it also has two front displays that show a constant temp reading. All for AUD$159.00 which is around US$93.81

Darn you NaSTy. The problem and the best attribute with this case is that it is alluminum. Sure it is lightweight, but if you try to modify it you can seriously kill the thing. Alluminum + drill = lose. It makes it very difficult to put more fans on, etc.

I have not ever had any real problems drilling aluminum...it just takes some patience and time.

I suppose you are right, it's just a tad risky is all.

modding anything is risky...you just have to have some balls about it and do it....
