Long story short I had to swap a customers components from an scratched up dell xps red case to a new black one.
I asked em what he was going to do with the old one and he said probably store it away or toss it. I said throw it out in front of my house. He said if I did a good job I could have it if supervisor ok'd it. No one else even had the courage let alone ability to do that.

So I figured itd beat my old buster up apevia case. then I got to realizing the mobo metal plate that slides in, screws in a spot I wont have screws for. then the PSU is 1000 watts, but im not liking the look. only about 6 sata powers and 3 molex. very odd, I can put my corsair 650 in.
I just liked the side of it, the heavy ass aluminum sides and the big fans already in it.

You won't know until you try.

Bah! Im still debating it. Its damn heavy and I cant take it home on the bus so I gotta wait till tonight or tomorrow for a ride.
My main concern is the metal plate to mount into the case. I forget, those come with the case and not the board right?
Also it def wont wit under my desk, so that will def lead to a cleaning and reorganizing project... Boo!

The case has a removeable motherboard tray? That comes with case. You can always drill your own holes and tap them for the standoffs.

Nod, I gotta bring that case home today. I wanna see if any friends have a spare tray. I tried looking in the recycle bin at work, and everything was mad old without trays.
I figure I can just drill holes and use cable ties Or something.
