Design wise, I would only be interested in a Slimline PC or an actual Desktopable box (like the Shuttles).

Gaming wise, it would need support for the latest mATX motherboards (not old sockets), biggest GPUs (more than 1 preferably), etc.

As it stands, it just looks like an slightly stubbier small tower with outdated stuff inside of it. I don't think enthusiasts would have much interest.

isnt the q7600 a quad core?

anyways, I like the case alot.

For the price it has shuttle beat but . . . damn that case is fugly. Looks like a freaking speaker and not a PC case 😵 It needs more GPU power though. I have a 9800GT in my box and you should see that thing choke in RF Guerrilla when I get to blowin up massive structures. BOOO OO OOO Oo ooo ooo om chu u uhg gg g. WTF !!!!!

no interest, not when the lian li pc-q08 case is about to come out.

Yeah... I think that I'd get a Shuttle box instead. More compact, and much cooler looking!

To be honest I'm not liking that case at all so I wouldn't buy it but if I were to buy it I'd change the CPU and the GPU. If I could only change one thing it'd be the cpu. Figuring the GPU is the easiest to change and can change it later on I'd get a different CPU up front. I'd rather have a i5 or an i7 CPU. Thats just me though.

Here is the main problem with this kind of build looking at it as a "Gaming" PC... "HEAT"
That video card is dated, it will get the job done but it puts this system even with the decent quad cpu in the "low end" gaming rig category... For not much more $$ at all you could upgrade to a Nvidia 260 Core 216 which is 3x the card that 9800 is the problem is that it's a big card, they both are actually and they put off a massive amount of heat when at peak loads. Small cases like this are like coffins for higher end hardware.

My 2 cents
