Looking for a super sexy classy looking case

[Salvador]

Help!! I can't find a case that I like. Everything either looks ordinary to me or so riced out looking with all the neon bs and acrylic side covers, etc.. I want a very sexy and classy looking case.

Any suggestions?

How about some basic parameters???
Overall size: Really Big, Large, Mid, Compact?
Drive space: 5"ext, 3" ext, 3" internal?
Mobo size: Full, mATX?
Mobo chipset/CPU?
How many add-on card slots do you need now and might you need in the future

There, that should help narrow it down, but generically I haven't seen anything much crisper in a no-frills, average size case than the new Athenatech 503 series recently.

SEXY!

There is nothing sexier in computer cases than Lian Li. Mine is the garish anodized aluminum. This fine product is in the classic beige with just the right amount of curvature on the bezel to put pep in your step and lead in your pencil!

It is sad actually, my mainboard is a Soyo Dragon Ultra Platinum Plus that is exactly the same silvery color as the case, but the removable drive bezels are all beige. My computer is sexier with its clothes off so I can gaze at the beauty within. It's all the eye of the beholder thing, I think.

What is sexy is the weight. The Lian Li is so light! I just moved my old Antec sx830 to make room for my windowless Lian Li and I was shocked at the difference aluminum made. Light computer cases are SEXY! This beige version wasn't available when I bought mine. Now I am depressed. I do have a can of white refidgerator spray paint in the closet.

The Lian LI has a seductive sound signature as well. When my SCSI drive writes or reads, there is a haunting echo that is just not there in a steel case. I can hear it even over the fans.

People that know me say I need to get out more often. I think they need more aluminum in there diet. :beer:

Try the Antec Minute, if you're ok with mATX.

Also the Enermax Titanium

Get a Lian-Li PC70 or PC71. I have two (silver and black), and I love them. They may look a little utilitarian, by they are so easy to work with. The have tons of room for almost anything.

Hey MrZed,
. That Ahanix Black Knight is one of the better variations on the midtower theme that I've seen in a while. Do you have any idea as to when some of those new models will be on the street?

Acrylic and riced out is the only way to go. Link.

Dell XPS.

This is THE sexiest case design I have ever found. I wish I would have gotten one when I was in the market for a new case. Don't make the same mistake I did.

The Wavemaster is a nice case, and It took me 3 weeks to pick out a case. I was going to buy the Wavemaster until I read the reviews on the quality of the fittings and alignments inside the case. I chose Lian Li instead.

Does anyone have more links like this? Especially any that delivers to the UK. I'm also after a nice case, some of those there are more my style.

Most of the cases are available in Europe but often under different names. Here is another one for you: www.athenatech.us Tom's Hardware has reviewed several of the Athenatech cases and I have an A100SC here and can vouch for its great design. At least three companies are using the A100 innards as the basis for their designs, e.g Ahanix Blu 1 and Blu 2.

well I wanted a good looking case that didn't have flashing lights and the industrial brushed aluminum finish.

Its small and really well finished ...

Cooler Master case all the way. Never had a problem with the wave master. Built quality, fit and finish is unmatched by Lian Li or other cases.
