Now its official a snail!

I will take the parts, the SSD alone. But the spare cpu would be nice. The really retarted thing is the 4GB of ram. Seriously? I can stand the H67, so common these unlocked cpu's and non overclocking boards.

Wow, haha, epic thread title, especially given the coincidence.

Truly ugly chassis. Seems one like that someone the furthest thing from an enthusiast would appreciate, and that's about it.

Ill take it lol, then Ill have a CPU for my P8P67 PRO and a GPU to replace the 480 that was supposed to go into it. Which would mean..... I get to keep my 480s in SLI lol then the SSD would replace the M4 and the M4 would go into the other build. PSU, Chassis, Ram and board would get sold or... something, IDK.

I love it being a "limited edition" case. Lian Li has been offering the snail case since about 2003.

That still doesn't change that it's one of the ugliest chassis in existence ;-)

Agreed, I'm just wondering what the limit is. I'm guessing that in '03 they made 500 or so and they're so freaking ugly that they still have 400+ left.
