It's at least not some shitty piece of plastic like my Raidmax Ninja.

Where am I going with this?


I think the case is ugly as sin. It looks like one of those second tier cases with the aggresive styling (one has like...a shield on the front) that is completely pointless. I'm all for a great computer case (I've got a Cosmos S myself) but making a case look like it might cut you is just odd.]]>Jan 28th 2009 5:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 7:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/

it's a flipping case!]]>Jan 28th 2009 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/
But, since Christmas my video cards melted and I've given up on PC gaming altogether.

If I was still in the game, however, I'd get this case. Silverstone's cases are some of the best available. This is their first venture "outside the box" of what they've put out in the past.

And it doesn't look that ugly. The case market now is either incredibly basic (like all other Silverstone cases) or incredibly gawdy.

I'm sure the backwards loading makes techies want to vomit, but I'd love being able to access all my connections from up top instead of having to pull my PC away from the wall, trying not to pull too far out as to unplug anything. And cooling is everything.]]>Jan 28th 2009 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 4:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/Jan 28th 2009 3:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/28/ravens-unique-design-highlights-cooling-not-to-mention-ugly/
