    I don't have a Xaser and I never intend to. :grr: It has to be one of the ugliest/overpriced cases in the world.

    There's plenty of better cases you can get for the money.

    i have the antec case that is basically a xaser but without the pre-mod crap that they bolted on. i bought it like 4 years ago, and then it was kinda cool. and i have to say; this case sucks. very badly. go buy yourself a freaking lian-li or somthing. DO NOT GET A XASER BECAUSE IT BLOWS!

    The Xaser cases are heavily overpriced, I would avoid them.

    Well I have a xaser 3 v1000a and i agree, it is overpriced but I like it. If you do some shopping and are willing to wait a little while to get it, you can by it cheaper. I think my case normally goes for $140 or so US and i got it for $110. The premods are a disadvantage but hey, its a nice case if you can buy it.
    Check out 3dgameman.com and go to vid reviews. He has a couple of case reveiws including a thermaltake case.

    also I have a question, if a thermaltake is overpriced at $140, why is lian-li a better choice? its more... :confused:


    PRICED FROM XOXIDE.COM

    The moment you hold a lian-li in your hands you will know why they cost more. It's a quality case. Speaking of own experience

    Well for one thing that's a full tower Lian Li and the Xaser is only a midi tower.

    Also the Lian Li is extremely high quality and the build quality is amazing.

    yes i agree with you its opinion like TT or Lian-Li i like them both i wish one thing for TT Aluminium cases with black paint or anodized black because i like black more i give TT cases 10pts it will give nice look IMO, and they are quality cases and you will get fans too as for free i like almoust all tt cases like Xaser III seria and WinGo and LanFire and for Lian-Li i give 9pts they are elegant and nice looking but most i like in Lian-Li is weight and look too most big cons is price they cost so much

    Lian-Li are very good BUT coolermaster(I have had one of each) is better in the world of aluminum boxes. BUT ACRYLIC..........

    Personally I think the Xaser would look okay if they didn't put that stupid text on it. Totally wrong font and looks crap.

    Both the front panel one and the X are off-putting imo. I know u can change it, but I'd rather it wasn't there at all!

    Arent a Lian Li overpriced?
    They can hardly cost 18$ dollars to build and they sell them for 180$.
    Am I wrong here?
