Case blow out at TigerDirect: DEAD

Case blow out at TigerDirect.

Casetek CK-1106-5C aluminum case: http://www.casetek.com.tw/mid-case/CK-1106-5c.htm

Was $119.99, now $19.97: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications...chtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=1178032

They also have these two steel cases w/ plastic bezels on sale:

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications...chtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=1361676

Not Casetek, but if I had to guess (based on the shape of the vents) I would say Yuelin Computer Tech, which is typically a little thicker steel than the usual $20 case (*cough* BCC *cough*)

Yay for cheap/inexpensive cases!

I can't find any reviews on the Casetek... anyone have any thoughts on this case? Thanks

Is that casetek any good?

I have one of those Power Up Silver Doom cases and it's actually pretty good case for the money. Airflow inside the case is pretty decent - The case has 2 120mm fan slots, which are currently holding 2 Yate Loon's, and comes with a 80mm LED side fan, which was later replaced with one that has more cfm. The harddrive cage is extended infront of the front intake fan so you can cool your harddrives also. Of course the PS won't support high-end systems but hasn't crapped out yet on my older system. The blue LED lights on the front are a bit annoying though, and other than that the case is a fairly sturdy and inexpensive case.

Castek is the company that makes the big Thermaltake case (Kandolf?) and the Cooler Master stacker. The aluminum on this case is that same thick Aluminum, like the Silverstones, and not the thinner aluminum like the Aluminus and Aspire cases.

shipping brings it to 65$ for me sounds good since it will take 120mm front and back and they are selling it with a windowed side

EDIT: actually the 120mm is only stated in the manufacturer site, the one on TD has as high as 90mm?

I saw that too, a 90mm fan?? Not very common for a case fan, if that is in fact correctly stated on TD's site.

BTW, that's a nifty looking case OP, will consider purchasing.

It's a different model number according to the sites:

casetek: CK-1106-5C

Tiger Direct: KJ-2532-SL

.........I didn't check the dimensions but I'm assuming this is a slightly smaller version, or at least seems to use smaller fans.

DANG IT!!!

Sorry for the massive posts!!!!

 

[jonnyGURU]

Wow! Four posts in a row!!

90MM can't be right. 92MM would be right, but it's probably 120MM if the manufacturer says 120MM.

Then again, it could be an older version of that model.

I'll call and find out....

 

[jonnyGURU]

That was novel. The Tiger guy just read off the website. :roll:

I'm thinking it's an older model with a 92MM in the back. It's got to be an older model or something because the one on Tiger shows only vents in the front and the one on Casetek shows a 120MM in the front.

jonnyGURU you are my hero. I was gonna get some $70 case, but then saw you're thread and I was like WOW! Hot D@MN!! So I'm driving to TigerDirect right now in like 10 minutes to get the thing(I love Naperville, IL...we have a TigerDirect store here no shipping costs)

The extreme edition P4 for 200 bucks is just... funny yet depressing. The chip was a 1000 bucks what, a year ago?
I want that ultra x connect power supply but it comes up as 60 instead of 20..

 

[Insomniator]

Just called em up about the psu and the guy said it came up on his screen as 19.99, then we both refreshed the page and it said product no longer available but he still let me order one on the phone so...

my credit card information was probably just stolen

You know what sucks though... I once bought something and had it shipped to my in-laws house and after that they started Spamming them. It's just a ship to address for God's sake!!!!! :roll:
