ABS Aplus ABS-Black Pearl Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case

What do you think? I kinda like it. Looks roomy, and its very clean looking.

I can't quite put my finger on it but i have definitely seen that case before, from a different brand. ABS is really good at rebranding cases...

EDIT: now that i look at it closer, it does remind me a lot of a Lian Li V2000 series case, although there are some small design differences. Kinda odd how similar they seem...

It's a re-branded V2000 with some changes. It has a fan controller, two 120MM fans up top, and two holes for a liquid cooling loop. The intake for the HDD bay sucks though.

I'm confused. It's a rebranded Tagan A+ Black Pearl, but the name is ABS Aplus ABS-Black Pearl. One day ABS is going to get copyright infringement... I swear. :p:

Uhm, it's based off of the Lian-Li v2000, which is much bigger than a TJ-07. The v2000 and TJ-07 are not really similar at all. The v2000 has a much larger compartamentalized design, and is inverted ATX form factor. The TJ-07 has bottom vents, which allow for better radiator placement for liquid cooling, while the v2000 has a perforated front and back bezel. They are both around the same price, and without looking at the internals, I could see how you came to that conclusion.

LOL, not as long as they keep sending the checks to Tagan!:)

ABS took it from Tagan. Tagan took it from Lian-Li.

At least they got rid of the mesh and put an actual window on it.

I have to admit, I've never seen that case before either but it looks really nice. I wouldn't have guessed Tagan to be the one who made it first. It's almost like a rebadge of a rebadge of a badge, haha!

Actually, Tagan appears as some kind of reseller for Aplus cases in the US, or the opposite way: Aplus is the Name of the brand here in germany, but they all feature the A+ logo.
