Today I have been fortunate enough to have been given the opportunity to review one of Sunbeamtech's range of chassis' - the Sunbeamtech UFO Acrylic Cube case.
The Sunbeamtech UFO Cube case is an interesting step away from the conventional case, in that you have to build it first before you can use it. One thing that confounds me though is why it's called the UFO, when it very clearly isn't.
Having owned one of the first generation of Sunbeamtech Acrylic cases. I am very eager to see what has changed. Anyway, let's not delay the review any further...why don't we look at the UFO Acrylic Cube case' specifications.

I'm guessing a disadvantage would be the fact that watercooling would be almost impossible?Quote

I like this format. Kinda reminds me of Orac from Blake`s 7. Just need a key thing to slot in the top.
Talking of wc`ing, there`s a project log I can`t find that did something like this from scratch, looked amazing.Quote
