A Round Computer Tower?

**Alex_is_Axel** · February 20th, 2004

Hello Everyone,

Im starting to get bored of my current tower (just a basic standup tower).. and so i was wondering if there is any chance of getting a round tower/dome tower which would sit on my desktop? Can anyone find one anywhere inwhich i could buy one? Im not skilled at modding or anything unfortunatly

so i cant make one at all

Ive been looking around some places and i cant find any dome/round cases

Can anyone help me out please?

I would appreciate all your help and time, thank you

Alex

Never seen such tower... would be great though... going to search around...

It would have to be a really big circular tower to fit a standard mobo...ventilation would be tricky...would be easier to cut out a round metal sphere and place it over a standard frame.

why metal?

**perris** · February 20th, 2004

my round tower is going to be cream leather

leedogg · February 20th, 2004

you could use cardboard if you want, I just think sheet metal would look cooler

plus it might be easier to work with.

**perris** · February 20th, 2004

leather would look cooler then metal

"yup...I have a leather computer"

vs

"yup...I have a metal computer"

even sounds cooler then metal

Apparently, about 2 years ago PCWorld did infact sell some round/dome towers.. i didnt see them as i didnt go into pcworld that often then but apparently they did and then they all sold out

.. wish i got to see one

anyone had any luck finding one at all?

I saw a modded pc of a UFO somewhere around the net the last time i thought about getting a dome pc (i didnt think to ask the great forum) which looked pretty neat, ill try and scoop it out again if i can find it

.. it was a dome with some wicked lighing making it look like it was hovering

cases dissipate heat as well therefore metal serves its purpose... if its a showoff case go ahead..
