Update on Silver Hawk Aluminum Case deal

The front faceplate of the case is painted a cheesy silver-tone and detracts from the overall appearance of the Silver Hawk mid-tower case. So much so that we must repaint the faceplate. Even the power buttons are painted silver. The case is constructed well, with two internal fans, but I have yet to fathom why the manufacturer deemed it necessary to install two pc speakers in the front of the case. The extra speaker occupies the room for an additional fan in front.

Our case badges do not fit on the case - the area reserved for the emblem is off by a hair. For $144.95 shipped, I would not buy this case again.

 
I personally think the color looks great. I can care less for the looks of the case though. I much prefer the looks of the Antec 1030.

The only thing that would suck about the silver is once you put the beige drives in it. Then it would look like complete hell IMO.

Just my opinion. 😉

On a brighter note, the case is sold. One of my regular clients, walked in and fell in love with it. Just wants me to add the innards. Cool. One man's trash is another man's treasure, I suppose.

I'm sticking to Fong Kai, Antec SX830, and CoolerMaster. Less danger of the unexpected.
 
Oh.. $130 bucks? Is that positive or negative money? I mean who gives who money if someone takes it? 😉
