SS Warrior Aluminum case $85 + Shipping @ Xoxide

[superfob99]

Haven't seen anyone posting Xoxide's X-Hour deals which has cause me to miss alot of the ones last month. I would've gotten this except I already jumped on a lian li deal about a month ago.

any opinions on this case and what the original model was? Lian Li PC60? How much it weighs and is it a good price?

FREEEEEZING to me at least. With shipping it's about $100 for the case. I would very much go for a Aluminum Chieftecs at Newegg with LOT bigger window (albeit shows off too much.. my bad cabling and all). Also their pics are taken after they've "suped" up the case with CCFLs which costs few more $$... Overall X-hour is getting very very lame lately.

Isn't a regular PC60 like $150?

Hmmm these might not be Lian Li's after all. If you look at the led lights for the power and HD, this case has them one below the other. All Lian-li cases have them side by side. Sorry about the confusion.

The plain Lian Li PC60 can be had from a few shoddy vendors for around $110 shipped. So this is a warm deal if you're really dieing for a PC60. Otherwise, its pretty chilly.

I hate the fact that so many cases are putting those blow holes on the side panel. It's supposed to be all fancy, but really, it's just screwing up the airflow inside the case. Instead of intaking the air at the bottom, then the air should flow through the main area of the case, then leaving after passing the CPU, via the powersupply or upper rear case fans. I'm I wrong here? If I am, please enlighten me.

This does come with a window preinstalled. Those things cost atleast $20 extra.

Xox is not any good
I bought a bunch of fans from them, and 4/8 broke from poor quality.
The center plastic broke wide open.

So, buy @ your own risk.

Dead, back to $159. Those who ordered, that's a Skyhawk MSR series case, which is just as good as a Lian Li.

Just from seeing how the side panel, the side of the top panel and the side of the front panel reflect light differently (just like other Skyhawk's...), you can tell it's a cheap case...

Actually, this case is not too bad. That's a higher-end model, so it's much better than the el cheapo eagle series that you see all over the place.

Yeah your wrong. Almost always more airflow is better.

This isn't a Lian Li case its a modded Sky Hawk AL-4378 case that you can get for alot less. Mwave has the Sky Hawk version for $55(link)but it doesn't come with the window or blow holes.
