IBM Server cases >>>>> PC Cases
Just started working on it.

I would literally suck a dick for them to use this design on standard ATX, mATX, and ITX cases.
>>58415432
Here's an actual answer.
>>58415450
such a beautiful case, and perfect for air-cooling, but too little storage support
>>58415633
I can see how it could be, fortunately I can get by on 3 ssds. But yeah it's so awesome for air cooling.
>tfw bought Antec P160 around 14 years ago and will probably be using it for the rest of my life unless ATX goes away
>>58415762
Yeah, then you're good to go. I was very excited for it but I'm running four 3.5" HDDs and four SSDs.
>>58415806
Shiiiiiet! That's a lot of storage haha well you could probably get by with an FT02 and some 5.25" adapters
>>58415480
sauce?
>>58415537
Cheeky cunt :^)
a modernized slab would be kind of cool I guess, it's decently timeless, spacious enough and can be mounted vertically if needed

Only kiddie gaymer faggots still use desktops.
Nice shitty hobbie
>>58416073
sorry, never saw it before and it tickles muh aesthetic bone.

The case I own now, the Silverstone FT02.
>>58416133
dont get me wrong, it looks cyberpunk as fuck and i'd love to have one
maybe if i knew shit about plastic or metal fab i'd make an atx version
>>58416189
Not my rig
But I love the way they turned the motherboard 90 degrees and how the air is drawn from the bottom. Three air filtered 180mm fans blow a steady breeze of cool air up, and since heat naturally rises all the heat naturally just flows up and out of the case. Even on low silent fan speeds this case cools better than any other case I have ever used or seen.
And the air filters keep everything dust free.

'I'd buy that for a dollar!'
>>58415535
genius. simply genius.
>>58415432
>>58416347
blast from the past
>>58416174
that thing is in the national cryptologic museum, right next to the NSA headquarters i I've been there before it's shit.
Lovin my phanteks enthoo pro m acrylic. Case I had before it was the fullsized enthoo pro with no window. Tbh im probably going to only buy from them from now on.
surprised it wasn't posted sooner
>>58415432
>>58416373
Lose the window, make it in marble instead of aluminum, and you've got a sale.
>>58416460
>make it in marble
u wot
>>58416460
>marble?
nigger wut
but yeah I wish it had no window
>>58416474
>>58416488
You know? The metamorphic rock?
>>58416111 (You)
Nice bait.
>>58415632
Hey I have that. Good case.
>>58416552
yeah, foliated calcite. i'm just trying to wrap my head around the logistics of that. are you gonna glue a thin slice of it to an aluminum panel?
>>58416460
>>58416474
>>58416488
>>58416552
You can get hydrodip film of literally any pattern you can think of. Wood grain, marble, carbon fiber look, flames, comic book shit, literally anything. There are thousands of designs for sale.

This bad boii
>>58416488
There;s a windowless version in black.
>windowed cases for life
You outgrow that shit by your 21st birthday if it was ever appealing to you in the first place.
>>58416737
oooooo
sauce?
>>58416608
>>58416598
No, that would be pointless. It's got to be nice quarter inch thick rock, at least.
The interior can get some aluminum mountings bolted on so the computer parts are secured.
>>58416384
This. Got the Obsidian 900D a year ago.
If they don't change the ATX specification, I suspect I'll never buy another case again.
>>58416808
It would be immobile for most of its life then. And possibly too heavy to place on top of most furniture.
I get it. It would be aesthetic as fuck, and it could possibly have some based thermal capacity. But if you dropped it, or whatever, the marble will break, and ruin the case. Not to mention whatever is inside. And accessing the inside will be a chore too. Imagine unhooking a marble slab every time you wanted to tweak something inside. Artsy idea, not very practical.
Despite my points. Yes. Yes I would buy a marble case.
>>58416863
Marble would not make a good heatsink. It would only work in the short term. It would eventually soak up the heat and reach equalibrium and get hot. You want a good conductor with lots of surface area.
Ever stand near a rock wall on a summer night hours after the sun has gone down? It can still be so warm you can feel the heat radiating off it from several feet away even though the sun has been down for 3 hours.
>>58416941
to be a pedantic cunt, it would make a pretty good heat*sink*, but not a good radiator.
>>58416976
>>58416941
Why would you need to turn the case into a heatsink/radiator when you're blowing cold air into it already anyways?

This. I own an r5 and an S. Both great.
>>58416228
>>58417245
FUCK YOU
>>58416189
>>58416217
I have the RV02E and it is an amazing case indeed.
>>58416590
Would be perfect if it had a ventilated siding instead of a dumb window.
>>58415632
won't fit SSI EEB or EATX, right?
That would be a stupid restriction to live with considering the impending death of the consumer desktop market
>>58415432
you know that thing is the size of fridge-freezer right anon?
>>58415484

>>58415432
>You can use one case for the rest of your life
I already have it.
>>58418716
>2 built in thinkpads
neat
>>58418770
>>58416384
I have the 450D. It's not too bad, but the stock fans are kinda noisy for my personal preference.
>>58415432
full tower IBM case or anything from SGI
>>58415484
Found the underage
>>58415632
honestly overpriced just for sleek
same mentality as applefags
elite 130
>>58416228
Underrated
Already do
It's old and huge but I never have to worry about anything fitting, and built like a tank
Maybe i'll build something smaller later for a media server tho
It's called chenming dragon apparently
>>58415535
What the fuck am I looking at?
>>58419994
Looks like a little baby piggy. It's cute.
>>58415632
/thread
>>58419932
Overpriced?
>>58419994
I like mine. Still gets dusty past the filter sadly. Need to blow my radiator clean soon.
>>58420855
true, adds a whole layer of cute
>>58420917
perhaps its ehrre i have mine but i only need to dust it with air twice a year. the thing i hate about it is putting the panel thing back on. but what i love most is the weight, 3kg is great
>>58415535
Is this loss
>>58421418
>housefire waiting to happen
>>58415884
Which is this
>no IBM Case
Phanteks will suit me well
You can live in it even.
>>58422839
Which processor
>>58422839
>>58422875
its just a google image i found, not mine -- at least not NOW.
