    New Case for 3XS Systems

    Guys,

    As always we appreciate your input.
    Do you think this new CM690II in White should be included as an option on 3XS Systems, would you select it?





    Cheers

    Pete

    Yup, I like it. I'd also like to see the Corsair 600T when it's out as an option too.

    Re: New Case for 3XS Systems

    Initially, I thought I wouldn't - I think if you want a white PC, you want it for aesthetics - and the grills on the front kind of ruin that.

    Having said that, it reminds me a lot of the white TJ07 you guys do (which I think looks fantastic). Okay, it's not nearly as pretty, but since it's surely a heck of a lot cheaper, I reckon I would seriously consider it on a lower-budget build. It's certainly something different to the norm.

    I like it ! Yes I would.
    EDIT: Per Terbinator below - I'd drop the LED fan.

    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    Yeah why not, sans the gay blue fan.

    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Re: New Case for 3XS Systems

    I wouldn't select it, but then I wouldn't have selected the silver one I've got if I hadn't been so impatient I couldn't wait for the black one to come into stock.

    Re: New Case for 3XS Systems

    I think so yes, it's something different, looks premium. Could be the basis for a great themed build, especially if the side was stencilled with something.

    Yeah looks too much like what an aging apple hipster with fat black emo glasses and a faux hawk would have, heh... still, each to their own, it'll probably sell like grass to sheep. I know black is a bit cliché but tis for a reason. Better than the standard being beige anymore for sure. Silly to pick a colour that looks worse just cos it's different to what others have I reckon.
