I don't know if it's just me, but the new Skylake case badge is kind of ugly. Why would they not stick with the older design instead of putting a CPU looking thing on the front of your PC? I thought about this for a while after I had another thread asking what the Skylake case badge was, so I threw something together in Photoshop (quickly, I might add) to represent what I think the new case badge should have been. Vote for what you think is the best one. Here are the options:

 

A. (Intel's)

B. (Mine, which should have the same background found on the box, but meh)

C. You think both of them suck :(

 

D. You don't like case badges in general.

 

E. (new addition, V2 of mine, sorry for the bad PS skillz)

Sorry if mine sucks, I tried to make the background a little bit more like the box but it was kind of hard:

Anyway, thanks for voting! Let me know if your opinion is more complicated than a vote. Thanks!

I'm fine with my little Noctua case badge tbh. 

Shot through the heart and you're to blame, 30fps and i'll pirate your game - Bon Jovi

Take me down to the console city where the games are blurry and the frames are thirty - Guns N' Roses

Arguing with religious people is like explaining to your mother that online games can't be paused...

Sorry.. but I think case badges make the case look a bit tacky. No offence intended, your design is hella better, but I wouldn't put it on my computer :P

Neither. 

What do you not like about them? Just genuinely interested, no hate if you don't like it.

I don't know if it was you that recommended a B85M-ITX over an H81M-ITX, but I am loving the B85M-ITX that was recommended to me. Definite win.

SO Nehalem in Skylake's badge.

What? Do you mean replace the yellow circuitry with the rainbow-y stuff?

Case badges are pointless. I prefer not to put a tacky sticker that will leave residue on my pristine case.
