PC gaming cases and laptops (why so ugly)

[sirwanger]

Why do gaming pc cases and laptops have to be so ugly, as they at they try too hard to look cool, but look moronic at end result. Do you know and good gaming pc cases and laptops that don't cost 50 grand.

You may not like the look, others do. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

For example, I like the looks of the Lotus Elise[www.lotuscars.com], but others may not.

Some may like simple looking cases with water cooling, some like all the flashing lights and fans.

I have never need a case that cost 50 grand. Compleat system, possibly, but not case.

I don't think I have ever bought a case on looks. I look for A) will the components I want fit? b) does it have plenty of Ventelation points?, and c) will it fit in my work area. I currently have a rather large matte plack towet. The only featurs it has to describe it is that it is black, you can see two green lights on the motherboard through one of the vents. and the power button glows in the dark.

Same here, though I did go a step further with my last build...two blue LED fans in the front to pull in cool air, one large (120mm?) red LED one the top to pull out hot air. It came in black already. It was $50 with no PSU included and that was the reason I bought it.

Wasn't trying to make it look good, but it did turn out that way. :-)

Very Nifty.

Like I said, I don't care much for looks, but when it works out looking awesome as a part of function, that is always great.

Look at Antec and NZXT cases then.
They look good without going overboard.

I think cases are the best when simple

I'm upgrading my Corsair 500R White to the Corsair 760T. Expect to pay more if you want a good looking chassis. The 500R will cost less than $100 on sale and the 760T at $170.99 or so.

I consider that cheap since I use the case for around 4 years, but I've used the 500R for little over 3.

It would be good if you gave us your budget for your computer chassis. Seems like you want to spend under $50.00.

I just wish people would stop with this whole "hardcore guy stuff is black (and occasionally red)" trend.

First, gaming is not a guy thing.

Second, some brighter colors would be nice.

Third, "hardcore" is a very silly notion.

Jeez, kids today, dont know how lucky they got it.
Wasnt that long ago you could get them in any colour as long as it was beige.

Fractal Design make the best cases in my opinion. The look very modern also.

I wouldn't mind a beige computer case.

That 50 grand would have to be the entire laptop, including internal components. The high end laptop components are the major bulk of that price and at $50,000 I would expect it to be equal to higher end desktop (though still not beating the highest ends Desktop).
