Ugliest case ever?

brownninja97

I have yet to see a Thermaltake case that I like. I don't necessarily mind the "gamer case" look, but I do tend to favor clean lines. Also, I'm a big fan of NZXT's current output, but DAMN they've come a long way. Thanks to my uncle (long story), there is a mildly-banged-up NZXT Apollo sitting in my room. It looks even tackier in person than it does in the pictures, and that's not even getting into the interior.

Nzxt have really come up in the world, i dont think anyone like thermaltake cases. The urban range of cases they make arent too bad but they have bad cable routing.

124608_383043.pngblah. I hate cases that look like truck's front.
Or with some "crazy wicked printed from photoshop and applied with some glue, and which you can peel off or destroy" artwork (like FLOWERS "blah")

Or Alienware cases... they are damn so stupid and not so gaming looking.

They look okay. I don't really like mesh especially when it's all over the front xD

Bad times from coolermaster, they arent too great at making low end cases.

Mine is below $100 and it looks pretty good though I do mostly agree, there are some shit boxes in that price range from Cooler Master.

That looks horribly similar to my case. I have no idea of what is the name of the case or even the manufacturer, as there's absolutely no words on this case other than ''Power'' and ''Reset'' for the 2 buttons in the front.

How do I think that this is a knock-off of a low-end Coolermaster case? It's just 30€ and it's cheaply made aluminium case. Doesn't look that over-saturated black IRL and the side panel's color matches with the front cover, unlike this pic shows.

 

Side panel appears to not be locked completely, but it's due to bent clips on the side panel.

 

 

Oh and that random black handle isn't part of the case.

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

I don't rate them at being very good at making high end cases either.

I actually like that case, the only bad thing about it is that its made by alienware which is an oem company. I think the hexagon style effect on the plastic part of the case is cool and the flaps that go up on the top look bloody awesome.

Pretty much anything from Lian Li makes my stomach turn. I don't care if they're the most amazing things since sliced bread. They still look like something excavated from an 80s time capsule. They have a few options that I'm okay with, but the aesthetics are flat-out terrible. When there are better-performing, better-priced competing products out there that look far more pleasing anyway, I see no reason to buy Lian Li. I genuinely do find their cases to be overrated. Having a high-quality case isn't incredibly difficult when you charge a pretty penny for it, and in that regard, I don't find Lian Li to really do anything to win my money.

 

I used to think the early NZXT Phantom cases were really ugly because they were just way too angular. But now, I've started to calm down a little bit and appreciate their unique appearances in a sea of samey-looking cases. They're excellent performers for the price, too, so that helps.

But you know what the ugliest case of all is?

In-win Mana 136? Believe it or not but I actually kinda like that case, it looks like it would be a pain to build in though.
