that's because...

there is no case in the world that is perfect

near perfect case --> bersepah!!!

& lian li is one of em

what i meant by perfect is the design of the case that suits the user needs not the build quality

heck i'm using SECC case (PC-K7) coz the design suits my needs thumbup.gif

I bought the cheapest good quality case I could find. (Cooler Master Centurion 5).

It's a bit light on the cooling and fans, but it has a strong chassis (I sat on it a few times while carrying it through the mall) and good build quality.

I paid about RM 155 for it.

I'm not terribly into 'bling' like UV reactant cables and fans with LED's - though I am considering maybe two blue CCFL tubes and some money spent on cable sleeves, ties, and brackets.

There are so many things to spend on when it comes to computers, I guess it's better to pick and choose where to spend, and casing mods is one thing I cannot give up my money on (vs a killer SLI setup).
