I'm looking at this listing for this case and an Abit AA8-Duramax mobo with some sort of P4 inside. I'd like to get the mobo for my collection, but idk about the case. Mobo is from 2004, and case has a "QC Pass 2004" marking inside, so probably case is 2004 as well. I currently have no cases from year 2004 so I could find use for it, but I'd like to know what is the exact model to make sure it's not some no-brand chinese trash. Seller says its an Akasa case but doesnt know the model. I'm not so sure, there's Akasa case fans inside, but the case might be something else. I turned google image search upside down, and was unable to find any Akasa cases that looked like this, or any 2004 cases that looked like this. Anyone here happen to know what it is?

Re-branded Super-Flower is more likely - e.g. http://www.super-flower.com/sf561.html

This is somewhat backed by this 2004 review - https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/fighting … tion,827-6.html - which says "With the exception of the writing on the faceplate, the Superflower Fan Master is identical to the Akasa Fan Controller"

Just looking at the pic, I've owned a very similar case, and it was flimsy no-name rubbish, but if it is Super-Flower, from this review, for example - http://www.dansdata.com/sf201mod.htm - this case with the P4 might not be so bad.

while I can't find any Antec or Super-Flower cases that look like this, after hours of digging I found a few Raidmax cases that closely resemble this one. No exact match, but probably safe to assume this is some Raidmax model too, or a clone of one... Damn, that makes me not really want to have it, but theres a problem - The seller refuses to sell me just the motherboard, says he's selling them as a set... IDK, its not expensive or anything, just 10 euros for the whole set, I think the mobo alone is worth more than that, so guess I should just get it, and maybe recycle the case later when I acquire a better y2004 case...
