Re: Facebook Friday - Fractal Design Define XL PC Case!
Hey All
The case came in last week, but I've had a hectic time with the kids out of school so I was just now able to get it unpacked to take a looky-loo. When it arrived I was a tad disappointed to see "Titanium Grey" marked on the outside of the box, but when I unpacked it today it did indeed have the Black Pearl finish, and it is beautiful in its simplicity. The finish looks a lot like my piano black Antec Sonata case that houses my LRoom general purpose rig, just a lot bigger! While not as big as my CM Sniper case that holds my 1100T, it is still a full sized case and weighs about 40lbs out of the box. It doesn't fit into my upstairs computer armoire depth-wise so I will have to put it aside for the time being until I can figure out what to do with it. It is made for low noise levels so it would be perfect for the upstairs but the wifey says until I can mod the armoire to make it fit with the door closed I have to keep it out of sight. Its a shame too because like I said it is simplistic in exterior design so other than its size it wouldn't look any more out of place in the Living Room than my Sonata does. She will NOT let me put it on the floor though. Wives just don't understand
Thanks again Legit Reviews and Fractal Design!!!

I'm currently using a low res monitor and it wasn't showing the full picture.

I have the exact case here and it's built like a tank. The two side panels nearly weigh more than some entire cases.

Re: Facebook Friday - Fractal Design Define XL PC Case!
sweet, glad it got there and glad the color situation worked out. Thanks for being understanding when you thought it was the wrong color. Not everyone would say hey, it's free and I'm just happy to win it. People like you is why I do these contests. Not the ones that complain about how long it takes to get their free winnings or that the box had a ding in it.
