Summary of the case

For the final touch we invited case modder Heiko Polaczek aka “Fastbrain1“. He has been in the business for over 14 years and has won several awards for his efforts. For Höllenmaschine II he used 6.5 square meter sheet metal, around 9 feet of steel pipe, 55 feet of welding wire, 88 feet of sandpaper and 7.5 kilogramm smoothing cement. To add the perfect final touch to the case Fastbrain1 got hold of half a gallon Porsche car paint - the paint alone costs about 1000 Dollar. http://www.pcwelt.de/know-how/hardware/71764/#

From the pic the case loks BAD.

And WTF? Only 1 26" lcd monitor? Also for that sort of money I'd expect something prometia equivalent cooled and not water cooled.

If someone asked me what that costs, I'd say somewhere around the likes of 6,000.
26,000?! From where?
For the price it's utter crap... spend a few grand on painting an ugly case, right.

I'd have it, as it probably performs fairly well.
