is style worth $300
So I'm thinkin of transferring my pc innards to an SFF case, as I'm always back and forth between college and home (3hr drive), and I found out that there is a huge LAN gaming scene by me (in buffalo, NY).
Now I gotta admit, the Falcon Northwest Fragbox 2 case really blew me away. I love the style, it's a silverstone case (based on the sg-01 i think), and it's just all around sa-weet.
But it's $300 for the DIY version, which is pretty hefty for a case w/o PSU.
So watcha think, am I a mad man to get the Fragbox 2 when I could get something like an Aspire Q-Pack for $80 w/ PSU (albeit a shitty one)...

lol. Honestly, probably not. That's a lot of money for just a case...

there are plenty of really sexy sff barebones systems with mobo and psu included for less than that, you should shop around a bit.

you're absolutely right, I tell a lie.
I actually paid £200 dead for my first car (only 20 quid out)
and it gave me a full year of trouble free motoring, unlike my second car that I splurged 2 grand on, but different story...)
edit: reuters tell me $300 is only actually £160, so I was properly lying I'm afraid...
