I would look at Addtronics W8500 if you need a large WTX case right now. If you can wait a month or so, I would efinately consider Matt Stiltner's(from [H]ardOCP) Cold Forge AA-15. It's 100% aluminum, 14?W X 26?H X 20?D, has mounts for 6 120mm fans, and can be anodized to any color you want. It's going to cost $300, and be available around the middle of January. More information on it is available here.

I was just going to order a pc case (the CKW101) from that site: www.servercases.com but I got a warning on the secure site.........something about the registery not matching the site?

Anyway, I cancelled and would like to check w/the resellers site where previous users rate the quality of service..............can anyone post the link, I can't remember the name?
Thanks for the info.........

Oh,............almost forgot,..the cube looks interesting.......but there is just something cool about those really large full tower cases,....and the access to the componets is so easy, and the cooling just has to be better(?).....just my $.02..

there is a guy who sells these on e-bay for $179, not sure if it includes power supply. do a search for "chenbro" on e-bay

The Chenbro case at e-bay(item= 1201029585 ) is $179 without the Chenbro power supply. However, the website referenced in the advertisement there sells the complete Chenbro Net Server case for $265 with 300W power supply. If you are in the market, you might compare the shipping difference between this place and servercases.com

Also, that site mentioned in the e-bay ad also sells cube server cases in various colours for those interested in exotic cases. Other similar server cases are item=1201024182 and item=1201029306 which are based on the same chenbro server chassis, but have different front grilles or redundant power supply.
