    There is the server cube from yeong yang, but it is considerably more cramped than the mountainmods case. http://store.over-clock.com. Look in the cases section, they have got mountainmods cases.

    I have not seen another case like the MM UFO.. As MOP said there is the YY cube, but it fails miserably if you compare it to the UFO. I see it as two choices, build your own, or flip out $300 plus on the MM case..

    Well i better start saving then as i dont wanna be wasting money on cheap cases and replacing them all the time.
    Looks like itll be cheaper to order direct from MM than to buy from the UK even if the shipping is quite expensive!

    Cheers for the replies

    Cube Cases

    Your looking it the wrong spots. I have a source from a company that buys out of date equipment from state agencies, businesses, etc. I just picked up 2 server cubes. Both IBM. One is a black netfinity cube, about 19 inches high by 19 inches wide by 27 inches deep. Here is this case
    .

    The next one was a little larger. It was an IBM S720 that measures about 27 inches high by 18 inches wide by 25 inches deep. Here it is


    Both cases included the 3 power supplies and fans. My cost for these 2 combined was $20 US. Suggest your look around for someone that buy up old systems and recycles everything in them.

    Those are ok cases, and definately a decent buy, but not in the same league as the MMUFO. The Mountain Mods case isn't for everyone, but if thats what you want, then I've yet to see a compareable case.

    What about the Chenbro SR103 Net Server case? 2/3 the price of the Mountain.

    Saw it on www.servercase.com under advanced server cases..

    RRR is just going mental with MM and search =P.

    They are popular cases, especially for the wcer. RealRedRaider is one of the many happy MM case owners.

    The thing on the cube is, after years of stuffing all your computer stuff
    into a tower or other cramped case, the cube "sets you free" "lol"
