Non-Standard shaped Cases

[UFN]

Note : This topic deals with case exteriors, not interiors.

Nearly everyone who owns a PC will own a PC case (excluding people who have PC's that live on bench rigs) and, unfortunately, nearly everyone will own a PC that looks near identical to everyone elses, Designed using what appears to be the "Rectangle" tool in MSpaint (Or, if the designer is feeling rebellious, the "rounded rectangle" tool).

Now, don't get me wrong, before any corsair case owners/fans light up their pitchforks

, I'm not saying that more traditionally designed cases cannot look good; Corsair, for example, make exceptionally professional, sleek looking cases. But this thread is not for those cases.

This thread is to appreciate more "striking" case design, for cases that are bold and recognizable, that feature all manner of angles, curves and style.

So Chaps! Post your favourite non-conformist cases! I'll start off with the inevitable, to get it out of the way - The NZXT Phantom

Not necessarily my cup of tea, but definitely different.... The "Snail" / LiLi PC-U6B

Inspited by the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai.

I don't think OP means this kind of case, were looking striking irregular cases.

Antec Skeleton is pretty different.

ThermalTake Level 10 as well, but obscenely priced.

Such a nice case!

I think I can keep this going

The Silverstone Raven RV01

it doesn't have to be 20 different kinds of Unique to rightfully feature in this thread, just as long as it is recognizable in its own right whilst bucking the traditional trend of what PC cases look like!

NZXT Gama

I don't really like it, but you know what, I'd totally rock one just to get that "WTF??" look from people.

I gotta tell ya, I am a sucker for Cases that have those kinds of...what would you even call them? The hood? Just like the Acer Predator cases

I did try and get hold of a GMC R4 Bulldozer case, just to build one for my lad - but sadly they're really hard to come by....
