Thinking outside the beige box
We've spied some funky case designs over the years, some of which have been intriguing while many have been...interesting, to put it nicely. It's always a gamble to come out with something drastically different than the norm, but that didn't stop Deepcool from diving into the deep end of creativity, and we're glad they did.
Our first thought when looking at Deepcool's Nephrite case for ITX motherboards is that it looks like the PlayStation 4's bigger, badder brother. Deepcool didn't deny that the PS4 was its inspiration, but it's not a total knockoff. From the carbon fiber material to putting the GPU on a pedestal with clear acrylic protection, this is a case that's clearly meant to be a talking piece. It could also be a neat option if you have a GPU you want to show off. There's no price or release date yet, though we were assured that it's a "high-end" offering, which typically translates into "expensive."
If you don't like the design of the Nephrite but dig the idea of showing off your GPU, you might like another of Deepcool's cases. It's an unnamed one that's also intended for mini ITX builds, and like the Nephrite, it has a special compartment -- albeit tinted -- for the graphics card.
Have a look and tell us what you think!
