Hi all!

I'v been looking around for a bit and I have found a couple nice looking ones, however the ones I have found don't seem to be sold in the USA at this time. :/ go figure.  So, I am reaching out to you guys to see if anyone here knows about where I can find a nice looking black and orange case with a glass (preferred) side panel.  

I'v looked at:

Be Quiet! Dark Base 900 Pro (the non pro is nice too, however i like the extra features of the pro especially the glass side panel)

Be Quiet! Silent Base 800  (niceish, but not a fan of the lack of PSU shroud + acrylic side panel makes it not my preferred case)

NZXT H440 Orange (Out of stock everywhere)

Phanteks Enthooo Primo Special Edition Orange (nice too, but out of stock everwhere)

 

Thanks! :D

 

EDIT:

P.S. I am not looking for a entirely orange case, more like a black (or white, or grey) case with orange accents.

"Make" the case? like from scratch? or you mean get a different one and make it orange by painting it?
as for making the case from scratch, i do not have the tools necessary to do that. :P 

and as for making it orange by painting it, i did consider that, however i do not have a location to paint it, and if i do find one, the weather here is just about to get cold and wet and as i am living in apartments i don't have a garage or shed to let it hang dry after it would be painted. 

 

Thanks for the suggestion, however DIY will probably be a last resort for me on this one.

As someone who just spraypainted for the first time, my advice to you is its damn frustrating when you don't have anywhere to paint it.

 

I painted mine outside in the garden, but paint blowing in your face, crap landing on the stuff you are painting, flies, jeez it was a frustrating experience.

 

Having said that I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, there are a few imperfections which were not my fault but the overall effect I'm happy with!

 

Wouldn't have tried to paint a case though

Thanks for the Bitfenix suggestion, but truth be told, I'm not looking for an entirely orange case, I'm looking for a case with orange accents, like for example black with orange, as opposed to entirely orange.

I guess the title is a little misleading in this case. However, the entire range of orange cases is still not that large so I would be willing to look at the entirely orange ones if people list them and maybe they will look good.

The Dark Base Pro 900 sounds like it would be the perfect case for you. You can wait for it to be in stock, I believe it was in stock on Newegg a few weeks ago, not sure why they took it off since then. Or you can order it from Scan UK like I did. Though expect to pay quite a bit for shipping.

 

I paid around $600 USD for it with shipping to Canada... ridiculous I know, needed it for a build and didn't want to wait who knows how long. But that's probably because I chose express shipping.
