    I hate admitting it but that Apevia X-Cruiser 2 has a nice color scheme to it. It's also VERY retro 50s\60s looking. Although toss out the pink for a more retro 50s\60s color like maybe blue or black and it's a much truer winner.

    The DF-85 looks like a HAF knockoff.

    the DF-85 doesn't look that bad to be honest
     
    I lol'd at the Coolermaster Shag Wagon though, thats cute
     
    also the TT level 10 reminds me of a Playstation 2 up on edge

    I actually looked at buying it a while back. The optical drive mounts almost vertically and opens downward.

    I had that exact same case for one of my builds in the past except it was black and had a Top and Side window.
     
    It wasn't a bad midtower at all for its time
     
    I had a AMD X2 4200+ 2.2Ghz Socket 939, 2GB DDR 400, and 320MB EVGA 8800 GTS ACS3 later upgraded to a 512MB BFG 9600 GT on it.

    Get a case that makes you happy, frak the low-lives that tell you it's ugly or uncool.

    I actually like this. Steampunk and Cyberpunk are very attractive styles to me.

    acrylic cases can look great if you know what your doing with cable management.  When you use those cables should flow through the case, different color cables look awesome and case fans.   They are ugly out the box though.

    I think the HAF X is a very unappealing case to look at.
    All I see is tank treads, and it's so darn plasticky. Plus the lackluster stock side 200mm which takes up 1/3 of the window...it would have to make it in my 10 Ugly

    -1 on the thermaltake level 10.... if it was the thermaltake level 10 GT the cheap small plastic model I would have to agree... but that is not the case.

    I think the HAF-X is sick and I own two of them. See my sig below----I am currently working on a 4.5 to 4.6 with my no. 1 machine. I use my modded 800D as my backup machine.

    Yep I just get one thats cheap but still does a decent job at cooling, I won't be spending $150 - 200+ for just a case alone like some people here do.

    I spent $150 on my case, but the SR-2 doesn't have a great selection of cases that fit it. There are $1000 cases.
