I ordered it ... plain/silver without a window... $35 with $17 shipping...
It has 2 fans.. one on the door and one in the back. The funny thing is, like with other people I guess, I ordered without a power supply and it came with one anyway. 420w one too, it doesnt look too bad even. Always nice to have a free backup =)

so I am very happy, $52 for this awesome case, shipped =)
thanks again to whoever found this deal!

Your case has only 2 fans? Their web site says the case comes with "(4) CRYSTAL FAN WITH 4 LED LIGHTS BUILD IN."

Ordered purple with no options. Received window with fan and power supply for free. $52.00 shipped. Not aluminum, but expected that. Have not seen the purple color in aluminum. great deal.

Wow, the case thread that just won't die. I ordered one of these cases Thur 1/23, in hopes of getting the aluminum version like others had.

*EDIT* THIS AWESOME CASE IS $5.00 CHEAPER FOR THE WEEKEND!

what weekend? this coming weekend (end of jan, start of feb)? and where did you see the $5 price drop, its not effective on their site (yet at least)...

Mine came today as well. Ordered it last Sunday. Exactly what I ordered, blue, steel and side window with fan.
Except that I also got the free power supply. It is amazing that these guys can stay in business giving
away all these free extras. The guys fulfilling these orders apparently don't hold advanced degrees.

Exact thing happened here too. I ordered it without a power supply but I got a free one anyway. But I'm still running off of my Enermax tho. Pretty nice case with lots of room.

Saw this thread come and go many times. I just caved when I found I could get a purple one for $35. Thanks

Yes, this weekend. Read the whole thread. This thing started out at $35.00 and went up to $40.00. I paid $40.00 + $10.00 window. They now have $5.00 off this weekend.

I wasn't fortunate enough to get a power supply (which I badly need), but I did get the aluminum and it is a sweet case. Mine did come with 4 clear (crystal?) fans w/ blue leds too...

Anybody buy this case from them WITHOUT the window? I'm curious to know whether the non-windowed version has a fan in side panel or not (won't really be room next to the case to see through the window or for air to move freely in my setup).

 

[bockchow]

wow i ordered it at 2 am this morning and got the fed-ex email with tracking number 15 hours later. i've never had a turnaround that fast. granted i had to pay a couple bucks extra for the rush but i'm cool with that. mainly just wanted to test if it made any difference.

I have this case without the side window and it does have a fan. You can always just take it off, and there wont be a big hole cause theres a dust filter.

 

[SilverThief]

Ok just ordered mine. Black steel with no extra options. We'll see what I actually get.
Great deal here.

 

[jhouston]

Thanks! Just ordered mine!

 

[Chief Wahoo]

My case came with the front mounted USB ports and it looks like the PC board was also designed to provide a Firewire port. Does anybody know how to add the Firewire port to this case?

 

[ezekiel999]

Just ordered one. They still have listed at $35. Hopefully I get what I ordered, thanks for the deal all.

 

[zoiks]

Got one too. A black aluminum one for 109 shipped.
Newegg has something similar with free fedex shipping for 108 but I'd have to pay tax on top of that.

 

[unchoops23]

Ordered the blue on Friday. Got an email today and............. backorder

 

[Delbert]

Ordered purple one on Friday. Got a fedex tracking number today. Yea! A bonus (free) window or PSU would be cool. Not counting on it though.

 

[zoiks]

I have a 12v black light that Ill put in my case. Wont be too bad.

What are you guys putting in this case?

 

[passivex]

Just ordered yellow (yeah, I want it to match my Ferrari Enzo...erm...the 1/18 scale model that is).

Total Purchases 35.00
Shipping 17.00
Tax 2.89
Total for BuyXtremeGear.Com 54.89

I'm in soCal: about 32.1 miles away and they charge me half the price of the case for shipping...and tax!

oh well...good case...hopefully they would include the 420W PS. I already got a flat neon light that I can rip from my gf's sister's PC.

 

[Goronath]

just ordered one, black with window - it'll be great if it comes with the psu and is aluminum like some of you are getting

 

[prenatal]

I got this on sale from Newegg months ago - Blue Chieftec steel, full window, 420w TurboLink PSU. Here is another alternative that's not too much more for $64.99+$23.50(shipping to Tx)=$88.49:

Black Chenming X-Sonic Aluminum Mid Tower Case w/350W P4 Ready PSU

 

[Glottis]

Wow, had looked at upgrading my case along with my new P4 2.4 that I am in the process of putting together, but didn't want to spend the money I knew it would take to get a case I'd want. Then I saw this deal, and I knew I just had to jump in on it. These cases are great to work with, and having all the colors to choose from was too much for me! Went with the blue, we'll see if I get any extras, but I'll be happy just getting a great looking case for $52 shipped. Thanks again guys!

 

[passivex]

I am about 32 miles away from them. Called them to see if I could pick it up in store to save on the $17 shipping charge but they said no. Oh well...saves me a trip....but then I want my case so bad.

 

[WiseOldMan]

Just received an email from them.
Both the silver and blue cases I ordered are out of stock.
