someone knows if sells the case of ALIENWARE ?

only the case

I found these 2 on the Alienware Outlet on Ebay. They are very hard to find and the first one got was damaged so we salvaged for parts . I was lucky enough to find a second one in excellent condition .

Bill Owen is awesome, really knows his stuff. Tool_462 over at XCPUs.com got to meet and interview him.

Thanks for the link . I am a big fan of Bill and the he vastly exceeded my expectations on this project.

I saw this on Bit-Tech too. The design scheme so far looks amazing. Are you planning on putting the Koolance EXOS in the top? I think that was what the ALX version top is supposed to be used for. If so, it will be an excellent design.

[lcrava]

I have 2 all koolance loops. One of the cases came with the original WC system.

Love the work youre doing bro, looks amazing and professional.

[freakgeek1337]

Oooh, looks shiney.

[lcrava]

Oooh, looks shiney.

I know what you are talking about. Koolance has been getting better with their new stuff.

[Vullf]

It looks stunning!
Words cant describe it, seriously!

[MF Traum]

Looking really beautiful.
Funny, I just noticed that Alienware seems to use exactly the same body as chieftech in their cheap cases. Just with different covers.

[picnic]

Looking nice!!

Nice, I saw this over on the mnpc tech forums, some guy was being a jerk saying the paintjob didn't look right or something but I think it looks great. Was a little bit dubious about it being an Alienware case but Bill has done a good job.

If anyone is after an Alienware case then these are similar, though I think they are slightly shorter, and don't have the grill in the roof http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mhel-Slick-b...ef=pd_sbs_ce_4

I wouldn't mind being able to get my hands on one of the ltd edition star wars cases that Alienware did years ago.

Now is on to the actual build, I am starting a thread in the liquid cooling worklog section and I'll post the link here when I start it .

That's hot. Best-looking Alienware case I've seen, by far.

[SNiiPE_DoGG]

Excellent case mod job man! professional work.

I feel like it is missing something being all flat black though, maybe tape it off and get a higher gloss clearcoat over the carbon paint or over the flat black areas that aren't carbon painted. just some variation of the sheen I think would add to the looks so much. It's kinda like the spy shots that you see of test car models at the nurburghring that are all flat black or zebra, you just wait for them to remove the covers and reveal that super sexy Ferrari red or Lambo yellow.

[SpazBoy357]

Excellent case! I really like the low-tech mock carbon fiber. Pure genius.

I agree with SNiiPE DoGG that it could use some clear coat somewhere. My vote would be to gloss up the carbon fiber bits to show them off. (But who the hell said this was a democracy, right? )
