    Ignorance is bliss.

    You should get this case. It is massive!, With nothing installed I think it is just under 50lbs! It holds upto 8HDD's, 3 CD-ROM drives, 1 floppy, and with the motherboard, psu installed, there is still plenty for water cooling. I am able to stand on it, I am 6' and about 210lbs. Not the smallest of people. It's only $125(US). I thought it was a good deal and like it alot, it is also 99% toolless. The only thing you need a screw driver for is the PSU, motherboard, mounting the sliding rails on the cd-rom, and hard drive(hard drive mounts into a bracket that holds 4 HDD's). Would recommend if you are looking for sturdy. The front is the only plastic, minus the usual plastic parts- fans/bracket, part of the bracket.

    my case cost me £30 ($60) all my cases have been resinable price, i get a case if its got loads of room, and looks nice, i like understated, plain, no door, no window. and huge.


    Mary had a little lamb. It bumped into a pylon. Ten thousand volts went up its arse and turned its wool to nylon!
