    Looks ugly tbh. They should offer different options on the window. It really lacks the class of a Murderbox.

    I like it, just not the white tiger text, looks childish to me. Should have left it off.

    Kinda getting bored with the scan dream pcs, they are kinda all starting to look the same, laser cut the side panel, lick of paint... not really a dream pc apart from the hardware...

    Tacky as hell. Why can't they build amazing systems in nice attractive cases

    I like it, I think it looks fantastic. If any one of us had done this we would be getting praised for it, but I guess people just expect a bit more from Scan.

    I've said it before and i'll no doubt say it again, the only PC i've seen thats been worthy of a title such as "Dream PC" was the Armari XCP.

    It was massive, weighed a ton, had an incredibly monolithic look to it and was absolutely and entirely impractical.... it was also the only machine that could genuinely call itself unique.

    A fairly standard watercooling setup, some laser/waterjet cutting and powdercoating do not a dream PC make imo.

    Even 2 years of time doesn't stop it being an absolute beast of a machine.

    I can't say any more than this, but that's not Scan's 2010 Dream PC ;)

    and yet you still cant buy one!!!! I know you want something really special in a dream pc but to say a pc built in one of the worlds best cases, with a Sata 3 SSD, 980x, Rampage 3 Extreme and Sli'd GTX 480's is not a dream pc, then I really dont know what could qualify. (although I would love to see what some of the modders on here could do with a £6k budget)

    Isn't it everyone's dream to build one like that one day... The specs are ridiculous...

    on a side note, could anyone tell me how to start my own thread, or create a new post, or whatever it is called... I have a few hardware questions, and this is my first time in/on a forum.
    thanks :)

    I'm an experienced n00b.
