I agree.. twin frozr looks fine to me. they preform decently, are quieter than most, and dont look bad. I should know... I have one (I have to admit I loved the  silver Twin Frozr III ones more than all of them though.. lol)

Because the reference cards look respectable, not like some alien space ship crap.

I mean the titan coolers have got to be the best reference coolers of all time.

I agree I owned an M17x R3 for a bit but then realized that I really didn't game on the PC Much so sold it :P

 

Also I find that allot of people are being confused with Bad Design and Old Design 

 

For Example:

 

Old Design:

imac_1245277c.jpg

 

Bad Design:

4_full.jpg

 

Both do not look good, One because it was designed in 1998 which was 16 Years ago, probs older than most people talking in this topic by the looks of some of the posts and the other because the designer probs has a stroke.

Main Machine:  16 inch MacBook Pro (2021), Apple M1 Pro (10 CPU, 16 GPU Core), 512GB SDD, 16GB RAM

Gaming Machine:  Acer Nitro 5, Core i7 10750H, RTX 3060 (L) 6GB, 1TB SSD (Boot), 2TB SSD (Storage), 32GB DDR4 RAM

So you prefer a normal black box for a console? I mean it literally looks like an old DVD player atleast the ps4 looks like it had some thought put into the design

I prefer the design of the Xbox One over the PS4. I don't like the angle, I don't like the touch sensitive buttons that are integrated in the space between the four panels (they're annoying to use, I have a PS4) and I don't like the multi-colored LED. Weird nitpicks, but I still prefer the XB1's design. Both of them had about equal thought put in the design, but because the Xbox One looks more conventional, it means that now the designers were lazy. It's like calling the designers of NZXT's cases visionaries and the designers of Fractal Design's cases boring.
