I get where your coming from Star, but if you buy an advanced enough case (like the one Random linked), then you'll likely be using it for a fairly long time, just changing out the guts...as apposed to buying a brand new one all together. And then, when the time finally comes for you to invest in a new tower, you'll likely either be sick-of or over the enthusiasm concerning the print and would be happy to sell it off to a collector or what-have-you on ebay or somethin. Now, concerning the tower in question...
@Random; As much as i would 'hate' to pick away at your fanboy-ism, the 800D, like most of Corsairs products, is rediculously overpriced. And dont get me wrong, their products are of a very decent quality...but while considering this perticuler case, the tower is just like the
Antec P180 except with a few nice (yet simplistic) additions that are somehow worth 2x as much?...an extra $150?....you're/they're kidding, right? And looking at it bare gives you a hard-on, sure...but put some basic components in there, and all the raves - mostly concerning airflow - start falling apart. For instance, every single 'pathway' for the air can easily get covered up by wires: Like the power supply area making the bottom vents useless and the compartment a heatbox with all the wires you have coming out of a PSU blocking all the air (maybe not if you have a 500W, but your telling me your gonna use that tower with nothing less than a 750W+?) ...yeah, its going to still be messy *OR* the back area that is made specifically for wire storage...thats also supposed to sustain air flow for your harddrives; you know, those things that are effected and damaged the most by over-heating - those things that they sealed in a nice little box so that they are quite reliant on that single fan and the non-existant airflow in the back, due to having all those wires going everywhere... /I'll stop ranting if you stop raving, Random - this isn't the place to push your favorite pill, anyways.
BACK ON TOPIC! - if Bioware were to release prints, i really hope they don't try to do 'stickers' that you yourself can apply to a case of your choosing...le suc. Having said that, i hope that they dont put them on the most overpriced tower on the market, either. Granted, it should be a full tower that has a modern design with all needed bells and whistles, but also monetarily managable...since you know they're gonna jack up the price of the printed towers, anyways...which all this is causing me to loose interest surprisingly fast, so I is gonna shut up...
@Jedi Is the B'store (or retailers, for that matter) going to ever release printed towers, similar to the ones featured in the Bazaar?...or is it a secret and "you can't tell us"?
