Certain zalman stuff are definitely overpriced...
This casing is way too outrageous...If put in a 650w 0db Zalman PSU, it's enough to set up one decent AM2 X2 Rig already...sweat.gif

Wait , i've just done abit of research , this case now selling at the states for $ 120~150 , so after the convert from USD to RM , it will be RM 500+ . so , where TS got the price from ? smile.gif

*btw , its not overpriced when the price ranged between 500~600 coz this casing deserved the price .

i think the use the wrong conversion, pound instead of dollar laugh.gif

check Computer Power User Mac07 issue, got comparison of high end casing. but didn't even include any of the silverstone or Lian Li casing...

anyway, this zalman casing slapped with FAT-ONE-TY surely way overpriced if sell at RM1.8k+

no ure wrong, the price is around 250 pounds = RM1.7k (in UK) or US$370 (in US) = RM1.3k, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811235004

this case is a rip off, it just looks like a modded centurion or something only slapped with Fatality logo, which is crap.

i'd buy one if it was around 500 bucks, pretty decent casing nonetheless.

below the title shows various price range from amazon and tigerdirect .

i agree , this case is a total rip off like most people think , it has a plain look from inside out . its much better to get some RM 300~500 case at half of the price and smack the remaining cash into RAMs .

U guys shud look beyond the Fatality branding. It's actually a really well built case. Really nice thick aluminum n superb construction. Looks nice too. The problem is, they've made it look to cartoonish with all those engravings n branding everywhere. If they made a plain black Zalman branded version it wud b really lovely.

What u guys fail to understand is that the ppl who buy stuff like that own rm19000 rigs. So, a guy who owns a rm2000 rig spends 10% on his case meaning a rm200 case. The fella with rm19000 rig spend 10% on case is also no big deal.

Different products for different markets mar.

definitely overpriced and the design oso looks normal, i rather spent not even 1/3 of tht price to buy cooler master stacker STC-01, although it is heavy and non-alu, but its very good for those need spaces inside a casing, can fit water cooling kits wif 3 or 2 fans radiators sommore..

Quite true as I spoke to one of my dutch colleagues and that for them spending around 3000 - 4000 euros (RM12k - RM16k) on a computer is quite normals to them a case like that would cost around 500euros which is a little higher than usual. blink.gif
