Chieftec Case, What do you think??

This is new Chieftec case that I am interested in for a PC for my girlfriend. I personally like it, but I can't find it anywhere to buy. I am going to put an Intel Mobo and 2.6c in it, so no overclocking.

What do you guys think?

Anybody seen this case available for purchase?????

Chieftec Case
 
I think it looks a little unfinished without a front panel/door on it.

I have a chieftech case (full tower) right now and I am very happy with their case's quality and finish.
 
I used to have an Antec case with a door, and I personally don't care for the doors. I plan on dyeing everything to match. I like the two tone finish, and it kind of reminds me of Compaq Evo cases.
 
bad without door, cases just look ugly with unmatched drives sticking out. not to mention noise muffling properties. the case doesn't look very girl friendly either. a coolermaster ATC-220-PX1 case would, they even have hotpink😉
 
I guess I'll get used to it.

I really hated the looks of the old "alienware" chieftecs till size and cooling drove me to buy one when newegg had a great sale; now I love love love mine and will probably always go chieftec now.

This one looks more modern. I didn't think I'd like the door on mine but it is quieter, I paint my drives to match and even light the inside of the door but like the door.

I guess I'm looking at my next case...if it's a good price.

Anyone know where this guy could buy one? I can't find it anywhere. Not that I'm looking for me, my second rig's case almost allows me to get both hands in at the same time (exaggeration)

Same Here... I can't find it anywhere. I wish newegg would get it, I love their case pictures and their prices too...
 
Do you guys really like the look of this case? I would think a girl would want something a little more refined. Personally I like the following:

This one
This one is small but light
This one looks nice too

I have the first one and it has real good cooling. The others would not cool as good but you stated that you are using an Intel cpu and not overclocking so it should not be a problem. I like larger cases but most girls do not.
