Post Xoxide X-Viper Case Review

BigAkita has a new review up on the Xoxide X-Viper case. Fairly snazzy looking pre-mod case.

Check it out here.

Great review, BA. Looks like a very nice case for the $$$. Biohazard should be very satisfied with it once Lokie gets his hands on it.

A week or so ago Feral posted a review of a similar Xoxide case from another web. This review far outshines that. Good work BA.

But i stick to the comment I made in the that thread. This pre mod junk is an ad for Xoxide. Removing the emboss on the right side panel of Xoxide will be a pain too. It is a waste of money if you plan to mod because of the limitations. I would like to see what you guys can do to it.

Reading the little bit on the home page I could tell it was BA that did that review. Here's a little hint:
Quote:
because of the features I wouldn't be adverse to using the X-Viper myself.

Only BA would be using be words like that in his review

serious question. Does anybody know what that case was BEFORE xoxide modded it? or iCUTE modded it? It looks almost EXACTLY like waht Im lookin for. mobo tray, room for 120mm fans, pleanty of mod potential if it came in an um-modded version.

Any help?

I don't think it's anything that you can get on the market. iCute put it together somewhere in the far east.

I have toured in the far east. You can get anything in Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia and China (Shanghai) under a different name.

I kid you not I saw the cases IBM, Dell and alien crap ware use in their laptops under different brand names. The one that stuck in my head was the IBM laptop that was being sold under the name of big blue. Under the surface it was all IBM.

I am sure you can probably get that case in China market or some shady computer hardware store in the USA in a while.

I ordered this case right before BA's review and I recieved it a couple of days ago. I was sure glad to see BA give it a favorable review after I had already ordered it.

I've since drilled out every rivet and took it completely apart. I like this case alot....even if it is a pre-mod. I've got some great ideas that I'm doing to it too. I won't spill the beans yet on what I'm doing to it, but it's gonna be a good. I can't wait to show ya'll, but its still 3-4 weeks before I'll be putting it all together.

As usual the review is to notch

Invent, you seem to have a problem with pre mod cases. If they aint for you then cool, I even agree with you that IF you have the place, tools and knowhow, you should find yourself something to cut up. On the otherhand, not everyone falls into that catagory. Someone might want to use the case premods integrated into thier mods cause they work well that way.
Finally, Xoxide provides people a service. If you dont like it, dont buy. Bashing them repeatedly accomplishes nothing but make you look like a jealous little boy. They wouldnt have the business if they didnt have the buyers. Which means that there are thousands that disagree with you.
