Talking Project: Blackwater (ALL THREADS MERGED TO THIS ONE)

hey guys, I am planning on building a computer this summer. I want to use a clear acrylic cube pc case. Cubedpc.com is too expensive. Does anyone know where to buy a clear cube pc case?

This thread may be hard to follow as I merged several other threads all with the same question from the same spammer into this one...
This is the official project "SPAMWATER" thread...
If it gets out of line again I will completely delete the thread....

Googled "acrylic cube cases"...

CubedPC is currently not taking orders, an no prices are listed on their website...
Xoxide used to carry an acrylic cube case, but none listed under Cases on their website...

Other than that, you might consider buying an acrylic display case large enough, and modding it to accept whatever hardware you're looking to put in it.

Last resort, you can PM hp07. He built a cube case (HardCase) from plexi and such... He could probably send ya some detailed plans/explanations on how he did it, or he might even sell it to ya if he hasn't already.

I would rather buy it if I had a good deal. I would have to learn how to make one if I didn't.

Where can I buy one?
How do I make one?

That looks like a nice case, is it only M-ATX? MATX motherboards usually have to sacrifice performance for speed, so you might have a hard time finding one thats great for gaming. The rest of those parts are the start of a great gaming box thought!

PS: Try not to double-post your threads or type in all caps, some people here dont have any skin and the slightest breeze causes them more annoyance you or I will ever know.

Gosh why do you type in all caps -rep.

Nice looking case. I'm not a big fan of them but they do look pretty cool when done well. Also have you thought about what your going to do for water cooling?

Click on "User CP" at the very top of the thread, above the first post, then click on "Edit Avatar" halfway down the far left side of the page that will load. You get a selection or you can upload your own.
