cool case for pegasos ... what do you think about it?

[samdu]

This case (the on ehtat started the thread) would be so much cooler if it had the swing down motherboard design that the G3/4s do.

Well, my current favourite would be the Colorcase Noblesse Black/Blue as found for example at wintelco.nl.

I'll certainly keep this case in mind for the day I'll buy my Pegasos-2.

My wife has her machine in a Noblesse. Nice case. Mine's in an aluminum Antec Server type case. Also a nice choice.

arggghhh!!!!!
i just cant understand why anyone would like lian-li!!!! aluminium cases are the most pathetic things ive ever seen!
->Could somebody please explain to me what they think is so damn good about them???<-

Two things:

1) Weight. When I got my aluminum case, I was blown away by how much less it weighed.

2) Heat management. Aluminum cases run much cooler than their steel counterparts.

As for quality, the aluminum case I have is an incredibly well built case. This is not one of those areas where heavier means better built.
