just curious but does anyone know where i can pick up one of those new alienware cases that looks like an alien head. i love the case but dont wanna buy one of their overpriced systems when i can put all my own stuff into it. thanks for any info u can give me.

I doubt you can but the case a la carte... blink.gif Just another gimmick Alienware is running to persuade peeps to buy their stuff cause the case looks "l33t". They probably have that case design patented or something to prevent some thrid party manufacturer making the same thing and selling it.

Bingo. You can however order ones that look like the older ones. I just ordered a cheiftech not to long ago.

Yeah the Chieftec cases weren't "Alienware" ones thats why you could find them a bunch of places they just put their logo all over it.

well ive already got a case that ive done up sprayed it metallic green and put in the window and green neon light but im just interested in the alienware alien head case and its cooling tech for a future project.

they done sell those yet the only thing you could do is buy the whole computer then gut it and put your system in biggrin.gif

true, but i would keep some of the parts if they were good tongue.gif! Hardrive, video (not onboard), if the mobo is good sell it on ebay maybe. Or i would just make a server with the parts.
