Old School Build featuring a Chieftec Dragon case

Small update... the case is an actual old school Alienware case (Saucer Silver), which is based on the same Chieftec/Antec case design

Pics of the case below:

A few blemishes but the original paint still shines pretty nicely!

I think Antec also had their own rebranded version of this case. I wonder who the original maker actually was?

I think I have the original Alienware fan cover. Let me look after my workday.

pretty sure i had that antec version - the one time i was in the USA i remember seeing all these generic brand ripoffs of it at CompUSA

Chieftec, i think?

I'd go with that, would not be surprising at all if they were the original maker.

I may have the fan grill. There's a few items inside the case that I haven't had time to check out just yet. Will update when I do

Right on. I did find the Chieftec 5¼" bay quick slide fittings. And a bunch of other things . :laugh:

Now that I think about it...I think the alien got saltwater flood/king tide damage

I don't frequent this forum but if another Memorial to Kreij Build comes up in the future someone please PM me so that I will know about it. I would like to contribute.

Well everyone, I've got hopefully something for a start of a giveaway coming... I'm trying to get some fairly decent hardware, hopefully GPUs and depends on what I can manage, some CPUs too if possible... I'm looking to try and do a giveaway of a system or parts and its a case of picking and choosing what parts you'd like...

If anyone else wishes to do some donating etc. then please do

I will expect members to be putting names down for this hardware that have WCG history but I also wondered, what everyone else thought if we opened it up to the rest of the forum and said maybe if you wished to enter, to put in some cash towards the cost of the hardware, so like a token gesture or something?? What does anyone think?? The more time you've spent in WCG or FAH or Rosetta with TPU, the less or 'free' I'd expect but if you still wished to do a donation or something, that's always welcome with open arms

Goes for anyone putting in hardware, if they'd like something for it (token gestures etc....) I'm more than happy for this to happen. I'll try and do some higher 'spec'd' winnings and then maybe some SSDs or something for like 3rd/4th or something??

We are most certainly doing this for @Kreij thread, so I'll put this text in there as well just in case people don' visit this thread

Any thoughts, ideas or whatever you wish to add, please please step up and speak

I mean if I'm speaking, I'm more a dribbling idiot than anyone, so if I can put a few words together, I'm happy!!

Take care everyone!! Hopefully hear from you soon!!
