Yikes! I think it would scare my parrots. :D

Seriously....other than the looks (a personal judgment), it's difficult to judge a case without detailed pictures of the interior, or a thorough review from someone or a site you trust. Even then, a hands-on look is the best option.

That thing is hideous. It seems like there's a contest amongst case designers to see who can make the ugliest case. It seems to have started with the latest version of the Alienware case....

There is NO way that can be part of a Silent PC system. It's loud just looking at it. :lol:

lol. Well at least they sell it as a gaming case. It has gotta to be "loud". I saw it at the computer fair but problem was i won't have known whether it was quiet or noisy because the exhibition hall was too loud... They were selling it together with intel chips o_O

I don't consider it ugly, it's not a square dull looking case that most of you guys have that's for sure. It will stand out at some lan party and for a gamer it will be a good substitute who can't afford alienware case....

Anyway i agree with u klas. The build for this casing looks decent enough but i didnt bother checking out the price at the exhibition. I figured it prob be expensive.
