While going through some old photos I took as a young teenager, I came across 2 that showed my uncles computer at the time in 2005. It had an orange display that showed the fan speed, hard drive activity and a few temperatures. I've never been able to find this case and he has no idea what it was called. Sadly it was a disposable camera so I tried my best to edit the flash out, it looks like the logo print on the front is somewhat blue-ish on the silver case. Would anyone have any idea what case this would be?

I still have a working example (P4 2.8, 2GB DDR, X1950Pro, SSD, replacement internal SFF PSU, Windows 7 Pro)...it's an ECS EZ-Buddie SFF PC.

Here's a couple of reviews -

You are awesome, thank you so much!

It has an external power brick, never got to see that part, then again my uncle did run it without the cover on, the Pentium 4 must have had something to do with that.

Wow what an interesting case, still love that LED panel even 14 years later 😁

No problem 😀

I always found the external power brick a PITA (especially with the connector at the top of the case), hence why I replaced it with an internal SFF one (and to help power the X1950Pro)...this one actually -

although I still use the power brick and power board on a small open C2 Q8300 test bench I built.
