    lexa-s
    As a general rule, I tend not to like the flashy, semi-transparent, radically-designed PC cases. They’re for the showboats, the pro gamers, and so on. Give me a good steel chassis with lots of noise reduction and I’m set for life. But this one attracts me for some reason. I’m not sure I’d want it in my home, but if I were a showboating pro gamer, I think the Lexa would be on my short list.

    It’s pretty standard feature-wise: room for five fans, front panel ports, and it’s pre-prepared for water cooling and mounting SSDs. I just like the simple, slightly evil look it has. And at $80 it fits into any budding supervillain’s budget.
