Anyone know if these are still ringing up for this price? Apparently my local store has them in stock (according to their websites availability checker) and I may have to pick one up to mod myself.

Just a heads up.. This is very much like the A10-B.. However its a slimmed down version.. Still a nice case tho.. And a great price..

Differences:
1. No separation panel between psu/hdd area and motherboard/Drivebay area.. Looks nicer with one..
2. PSU mounts normal (horizontal) unlike the Lian Li that mounst verticle.
3. 1 less 5.25" Drive bay. 6 instead of 7
4. 2x 3.5" bays instead of a conversion kit like the Lian Li..
5. Some inside areas are not painted.
6. possibly made with lighter metal..

Not a big deal really.. The price is much better in the end.. But I wonder if its made of cheaper gauged metel.. Just looking at the Lian Li makes me think this one uses a lesser gauge.. The other things listed make the case look nicer IMO, but aren't worth the extra $200..

If you can grab one, get it.. Even if you don't need it.. Thats what I did, I got the last 2 in my area.. Best $50 case ever!! :rockout:

Well I got to go there tomorrow after work then. I work down the street from one Best Buy, and live near a second... Crossing my fingers they ring up wrong (both stores are still in stock)
