Anybody can recommend me a good looking casing around the price of RM200?it's for my mom's PC.i just want it to look "expensive" rather than some good airflow casing but ordinary design because what women usually want is the "looks" smile.gif

so far my survey:
1. Raidmax Ninja RM220 PC-Zone
2. Powerlogic Atrix 5000T RM160 PC-Zone
3. I-cute casing which is like a jet-engine RM220

Centurion 5 looks cheap tho sweat.gif

get Powerlogic Atrix 5000T, it seems incongruous if u buy Raidmax Ninja or I-cute with jet-engine for ur mom.
another good choice is Centurion 531, planning to buy this case actually.. but suddenly changed my mind to get LL after visit this thread doh.gif

Totally agree and some how it looks like alien's head to me...

i really wonder anyone bought this case ... .

design not bad what?. whistling.gif

the body Suppose to be a big case but intenal space very limited to me.. same size as CM Elit i guess...
still consider worth for money since only 110 unit available in the market (not sure in LY or in malaysia) rolleyes.gif

It's not a practical design to have scuh large case from apperance but ended with limited working space within it.

beside with the amount of money paid for it just for the sake of "Asus" brand ?? come on be more realistic ...

of course it's still up to the individual preference but it surely not mine..

no offense just to share the opinion here,,

also not mine actually.. laugh.gif but my brother really obsessed about those case..

Only 110 units in the market? you sure about that?

Anyway, design is kinda cool if you ask me, but too much plastic turns me off.  wink.gif

thanks for the input i am very glad with the suggestion, after some googling and research, i found some other casing which might suit my taste, need some opinion on them.

Lian-Li 767A

Lian-li 101A

PC B20A

Antec P180

i have not check other brand such as gigabyte, asus, silverstone, sunbeam, cooler-master, vantec, zalman etc. Any other casing from those brand which have a nice design which might suit me, you might just realised i like plain simple silver colour casing, multiple easy access hdd tray, and also 120mm IN TAKE FAN.

Thanks for the input  rclxms.gif

what about CoolerMaster Praetorian 730?.
i heard about some hardisk noise on this cassing, but i think u can apply some rubber washer to sort that out.
