When it comes to cases there are tons of options on the market, you can go ultra-budget and spend as little as $25 on a tin can or you can go over the top and spend $2000 on one of the finest cases ever created, the Xforma Limited Edition MBX MKII.
When I saw the Xforma MBX MKII on a video that Linus Tech Tips (great channel that you should definitely follow) did, I knew that I had to share it. It’s not just a housing for all of your PC hardware, it’s a beautiful piece of art that is worth its eye watering price tag. You might be thinking to yourself, “why is it so expensive, it’s just a case?” The same can be said about supercars, they are just cars at the end of the day. The truth is that the price is defined by the choice of materials and the elegant design and craftsmanship that goes into this case. Just like a supercar, every aspect of this case has been carefully and meticulously designed by Charles Harwood to flow and work together. Even the functional aspects of this case have been designed not to impede on the overall look of the case. The optional optical drive has been integrated into a design element of the case a, it’s so subtle that you could easily overlook it completely. Apple have created some good looking computers and laptops over the last few years, but they have nothing that even compares to this case and its sheer elegance.
So the title is a bit misleading as this beautiful case doesn’t actually cost $2000 out of the box, the chassis alone will set you back a crisp $1299. It’s all the extra bits and pieces that make this case what it is. And as expected these extras will cost you quite a bit to get it to the same level as the one shown by Linus. If you have the budget for one of these master pieces, then head over to the Mod-One website where you can order your limited edition MBX MKII case. However, it will take a few weeks for it to be shipped and delivered as this is not an off the shelf case from some factory in the Far East.
