I'm wondering if anyone can help identify my old case by this blurry screen grab of a digitized VHS video made in 1996. It's the clearest screen grab I could get. This was my old 486 DX4-100 machine. It's got the Mhz LED, Power, Reset and Turbo buttons on top, 2 large drive bays and 2 small bays and also a slidable panel face to cover the drives with a singular silver sticker centered on it. I've seen Enlight cases that had similar stickers but I can't make out the words on it and didn't see anything quite like it. Does it ring any bells for anyone?
Thanks

I found good quality photos and it looks like OEM case, but it's probably impossible to identify the model.

Those cases were popular in Poland as a high end option. Our version was commonly called "Green" because those side accents were green Re: PC tower cases by year
