techguy21801 Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 hey all, i have been searching for a while for a certain brand of case, it's an IBM ESERVER XSERIES 200 Midtower blackcase. i have one at work and i really like it and i considered building another system for a friend and i want the option of using this case. if anybody knows where i could pick one up for a good price or where to start searching i would appreciate it.

gamehead200 Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 Made by IBM? You'd probably have to buy a computer from IBM to use the case... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FthrJACK Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 Not sure about that exact case but i know of many similar ones. ill check and post back what i find.but to start off have a look at www.chieftec.comthey have similar ones. and you CAN buy IBM cases without the machine i think, like i said ill check.The ones im thinking of are NOt cheap though. they are intended for file servers etc that will cost thousands so they tend to extract the cash from your wallet as obviously you must have some building that kind of a system.

techguy21801 Posted February 5, 2003 Author Share Posted February 5, 2003 Actually i prefer Chenming cases which is what i have and i wouldn't mind getting a refurbed version of the IBM case but if it was more than 50$ i wouldn't worry about it, it not worth that much to me i'll just get a chenming case. the person who wants it built wants a window kit and sound activated light and the dimensions of the IBM case doesn't allow those.. but thanks for looking. I've consider Enermax Cases, they any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drewdatrip Posted February 5, 2003 Share Posted February 5, 2003 My enermax case is sweet!!!the newer versions of the full towers are sick as hell!!Check out chieftech...they make the cases....=Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FthrJACK Posted February 9, 2003 Share Posted February 9, 2003 enermax modify chieftec cases and sell them on. same as thermal take do, enermax also modify chieftec PSU's (they go under the name Antec) Antec and chieftec are the same thing, i think its just a brand name for each type of hardware.usually you buy a chieftec case it has an antec power supply in it, some dealers take them out as they are worth money on their own. so check. most places sell the cases for around the same price but some dont have the PSU.your mate wants to mod the case... well dragons look great with a window in and some neon string or a cathode behind the front bezel.
