I got it sitting next to my Haf 922 and it looks to be a hair taller and longer.

Isn't owning Alienware stuff being one step away from owning a Mac? :laugh:

Here you go.

richardbel · Feb 16, 2010

^ ok i drool on that one. :eek:

El_Mayo · Feb 16, 2010

the HAF looks SOOOO much better
i would never buy that case
can't you get an antec 902 for that price?

ERazer · Feb 16, 2010

i saw that too, looks really good but bad airflow:shadedshu so i went for haf 932

lemode · Feb 16, 2010

the HAF(s) is a better case all around. though i do like the pred more than what dell did to the new cases /vomit. i just upgraded a friends pred and i asked him why he didn't just upgrade to a HAF...and his reply was honest and funny.

"i paid $3,000 for this pos so i am going to use it till it disolves".

made me :laugh:

Antec 902 supposedly offers similar airflow to the 932

Let's see what the the inside looks like! =)

shevanel · Feb 16, 2010

looks like a train in a sci fi movie

KieX · Feb 16, 2010

Looks like a Cylon from the newer BSG series. Airflow doesn't look to good though.

viczulis · Feb 16, 2010

Hey I bought the Haf but come on it is not the best looking case out there.

I dont even think its in the top 500 on looks. But its probably in the top five for air flow. Thats why I bought it. But for looks the Pred blows it away, and I am impressed by how solid it feels, well built. Has four fans in it so I dont think it will be that bad on air flow. But thats what mods are for. Blow hole on top would or will be easy enough. Here's some pics of inside.

It's definitely a step too close for me. :laugh:

I'm not too impressed with the design.

assaulter_99 · Feb 16, 2010

Looks like a pc from the mass effect universe rofl

Btw, its more likely a 922, not a 932.

viczulis · Feb 16, 2010

yes its a 922 I stated that above. I guess to each there own. lol

El_Mayo · Feb 16, 2010

Dude, the interior is massively disappointing for the cost.

Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder—doesn't matter how much others like it ... do you, overall?
