X-Blade case

[Dergrin]

I was wanting to build a new computer and came across this case. I was wondering if anyone had heard anything about it.

X-Blade ATX case

I have heard a lot about the ANTEC Sonata and was wondering if this case could hold its weight against it.

Thanks.

It depends on what you want. The Sonata is a silent, un-riced case that comes with a good power supply, whereas the X-Blade seems to have only its appearance going for it (low quality PSU; looks to be cheaply constructed, etc.)

Personally I believe the Antec to be the "better" of the two, though it really comes down to preference and what you want out of the case.

i think the xblade is a cheesy looking pre mod case. the front led's on those often go bad and the overall construction is just mediocre, go with the antec. the xblade might look cool now, but i think after a few months you might get sick of it. whereas the antec cases are clean enough to stay in style for a while. or at least thats what i think hth

Looks like all show, no go.
Antec, Lian Li, Chieftec, etc, that's where you want to be.

Far too ornate for my tastes.

Antec & LianLi IMHO
