- muleskinner, on 12/20/2007, -3/+44did it honestly need to be spread over 12 ***** pages?
- rwallen, on 12/20/2007, -8/+44I'm sorry but this just looks stupid.
- JustinHorne, on 12/20/2007, -1/+26The work is incredible, and I'm immensely jealous of his skill, but I don't like the end result at all...
- tomisina, on 12/20/2007, -2/+19all that carbon fiber... that thing must be FAST@!@!!
- bman85, on 12/21/2007, -0/+14I totally respect the skill and amount of work that went into that...
But I gotta say that finished product leaves much to be desired... first of all... white??? Conflicting LED colors... the weird logoage on the top radiators?
I don't know... with that amount of know-how and skill, i think something much better should have come out of it. I think he is an awsome fabricator but not designer. - pmagayon, on 12/20/2007, -1/+12This case got THIRD place? I'd love to see what took 1st.
- CaviMike, on 12/21/2007, -1/+10Page 13 is the only one I care about:

Not as much carbon fibre as I was hoping but it's still much better/nicer than mine. - nicku, on 12/21/2007, -0/+7When carbon fiber is truly awesome:
http://www.dynamiccomposites.com/products.html - mortigon, on 12/20/2007, -0/+7it was white with a chameleon on the side, neon green all over the bottom with neon green tubes on the inside
no mirror necessary - zomfg, on 12/21/2007, -3/+10a good case is:
silent
inconspicuous
not a friggin x-mas tree of lights.
burried - Harbinger67, on 12/21/2007, -2/+7Thirded. If you're going to put all that work into a CF case, you better damn make an actual carbon fiber case, not just cover a normal one in CF panels. CF is cool because it's strong AND light. Just using it to cover a big steel and aluminum box sort of defeats the purpose.
- PFrocker, on 12/20/2007, -3/+7the green tubes make it look like it's a radioactive computer.
- inactive, on 12/20/2007, -0/+4Meh.. I like the water cooling setup, its very clean, but the bottom lights are a bit much. Water cooling is a hassle now days almost not worth the cost of having vs over clock speed.
- sunnychiba, on 12/21/2007, -1/+5In another post, I read these guys were being bombarded with phone numbers and date requests by hot women....
- Sparkster185, on 12/21/2007, -0/+4!(Carbon Fiber) == !(awesome) ??
- AlphaPrime, on 12/20/2007, -0/+3Scratch that, back up... for now.
- CaviMike, on 12/21/2007, -0/+3To each his own, I actually thought it came out wonderful.
- Amebic, on 12/21/2007, -0/+3Man, some of you guys are really showing your stupidity and general twatishness. If you actually read the article you'd see that he's sponsored to do the case - so not wasting his own money and time - and the carbon fibre was just some stuff he had lying around and had no other use for. Yes, it may be a bit geeky, but, goddamn, this is digg so what better place for people to appreciate it.
- armada8800, on 12/20/2007, -0/+3considering I don't have allot of money I would rather put the money into graphics cards, memory, hard drives, etc.
- Shiner6, on 12/21/2007, -0/+3Maybe the persons case that was actually carbon fiber and not just metal covered with carbon fiber sheets?
- merkk, on 12/21/2007, -0/+3Very good work, but it wasnt super impressive. I'd hire him any time to mod my case, but i think i'd want someone else to come up with the design. I mean it looks way better then how it looked before. Just not something i bother to post on digg.
- Zgradis, on 12/21/2007, -1/+4The case needs to look good itself, i mean yeah sure CF cool, but THIS is a case that made my jaw drop... http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p ...
- Takteek, on 12/21/2007, -0/+3I don't know who took first but here are some other awesome cases from CeBIT:
http://www.bit-tech.net/modding/2007/04/04/cebit_2 ... - HaSatan, on 12/21/2007, -0/+2Carbon fiber adds like another 9000 megahurtz!!
- Kratos76, on 12/21/2007, -0/+2I'm still looking for the carbon fiber
- lovestospooge, on 12/21/2007, -0/+2You're just jealous.
- one2gamble, on 12/21/2007, -0/+2The chameleon on the side makes you think suse, but it looks like its running vista?
- plash, on 12/21/2007, -0/+2the chameleon is the suse logo; a flavor of linux
- smrekar, on 12/21/2007, -0/+2thank you for your absolute douche-baggery. I have contributed 1 bury point to your stash.
- bmystry, on 12/21/2007, -0/+2What liquid cooling system did he use?
- MoneyShot, on 12/21/2007, -1/+2Carbon fiber inside a computer case is utterly moronic. It's made up of... little fibers of carbon (a conductive material). If one of those tiny fibers ever gets sucked into the power supply or lands on the motherboard... ZAP! Congratulations! You now have a carbon fiber door stop.
- Flummoxer, on 12/21/2007, -2/+3No, super cars are actually cool.
- cambob76, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1I like it. But dude, invest some money in a real monitor... I mean projector.
- MattB123, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1I think I must be too old to get case mods. At least mods that are purely to look cool.
- SupaFurry, on 01/23/2008, -0/+1They should use those to guide passenger jets into airports
- minusfluke, on 12/20/2007, -0/+1my VTEC just kicked in yo
- PabloMac, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1I could mount ten bucks worth of sign-grade carbon fiber print vinyl on the sides of my G5 in about 10 minutes and have a better looking case.
- GfunkGbuss, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1It's pretty clean overall, especially inside, but I've seen far more sophisticated and intricate designs, as well as more overall aesthetically pleasing designs. That might work in the right environment, but anymore most people want their PC's to fit in with the rest of their home decor.
- PabloMac, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1You can polish a turd, but...
- smrekar, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1i would be ok with a CF venere, but not accent pieces only and stark white powder coating. i can only imagine it looks better in person. I personally wouldnt put all of that work into something just to put a suse chameleon on the side either. The carbon li grille has potential.
Great skills, great craftsman, terrible design. - CaviMike, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1Damn, it's too late to get this in time for christmas.
- smrekar, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1i wouldnt put a giant suse logo on the side of my box...then again, it comes with a subtle apple logo.
- open2slander, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1Wow, a riced desky that's all the world needs...
- Dylson, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1http://www.framemytv.com/images/Akhan1/TV-Mirror1a ...
- Jeezoflip, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1i think its pretty cool except i think he ruined it with the "car" "bon" on the top. It looks dumb.
- Lane, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1amazing water cooling and no transparent case wtf?
- LilJimmyNordin, on 12/21/2007, -0/+1And can easily get you laid by chicks who think "epic gear" is just the fastest you can drive.
- Ediejo, on 12/24/2007, -0/+0@ databoy it’s just my hobby. Before this one I already have a very fast system.
Check this one. http://www.bit-tech.net/modding/2006/07/03/Extreme ...
At this moment I am building a new fast computer with a triple sli system in it.

So as you can see casemodding is a part of my live. Some people hanging in a bar and spending here money there. I also have a regular job. So I think my live is alright. It don’t give me wet dreams. That are your words.
And about my wife we are almost 25 years together and still happy. Don’t care about that. - Ediejo, on 12/24/2007, -0/+0I build this case for Point of View and that logo belongs to the company.
