I've bought several at $50-100 and flipped for $500 on ebay. Used one as my daily for a year with my 6600k, rtx 2070. My 3900x would be perfect in these. They are fantastic cases.

How do you take the Front and Top panels off? I'm in the process of restoring one of these.

Pre dell Alienware, damn I just got nostalgia goosebumps. I really wish I could have seen what Alienware could have been if Dell didn't turn them into proprietary garbage.

Your like a tech version of vice grip garage, I love it

[fiddlermuncher]

How's the cooling in these cases? They seem quite blocked

One of these days I hope to find one of these cases that aren't marked up beyond reason to build in.

Hey Ive been watching you for a long time now, can you do a video on a Xbox Series S? like a RGB fan bigger SSD inside and maybe even a paint jpb?

Case Design is timeless. I like the rar Alx versions but never find a cheap one.

[remoteinllc]

I've gotta say... You build some badass systems for sure.

[MegaHellstrike]

Man that manufacturing date on the case hit hard, that case is old enough to vote!

[wildrelicproductions]

Absolutely love this video cool I always wanted to get my hands on a old x51 or arura but never had the extra cash to do so sadly maybe one day

[victortorres]

Wish I had the time and extra money to do this too
