I'm looking to build a new gaming beast..

shipping the internals isn't a problem

but i don't want to pay 150bd shipping cost on a $150 case

does anywhere locally carry good cases?

i'm not talking about the cheap chinese crap sold by the kilogram..

I'm talking about Antec, Chieftec, LianLi etc etc..

good airflow tool free design that kind of thing..

Im building new Gaming PC with over 500 BD .

If you want to ask really professional people about building PC there is website called www.gulfgamers.net I heared about it just go there and give them your budget and they will tell you what to buy exactly. They have Counter Strike Source servers. But I don't play source :) They must be pro

They look more like Vacuum cleaners than cases.


Ottoman, when i was building my gaming rig, i knew i couldn't find worthy bits here, i went to UAE, and got myself an ultra light weight thermaltake.

You will NOT find Antec, i've looked, mainly because most of their models are steel build, so very heavy and very expensive to bring, so most importers don't bother.

chieftec and thermaltake i saw in UAE, those are your best bets.

EDIT: check also mars, the backshop and also mass pc, they both have cases of good brands

by the way, Urban PC is over-priced!

I work in the IT field.. and have been overclocking and Watercooling PC's for about 6 years now, back when we made our kits out of aquarium and car parts..
life is much easier now..

so for me it's not a problem on WHAT to buy.. the question is WHERE to buy a damn case..

My old PC: ( i had to leave the case behind cuz it was too heavy to bring here)

so my last PC ended up having an invisible case like this back in 2002:
