the chieftec dragon is fugly

Looks are entirely subjective. For instance, just about every reviewer on the planet doesn't like the HAF 932's appearance, but I like it. Bottom line: Don't call a case fugly, because someone likes it and you'll just end up offending them.

Side-note: Is there ANY other adjective to describe an unattractive case than "fugly"? I swear I've heard it a dozen times on this forum, but not once have I heard any other term.

Look at the buyer's guide, it pretty much covers all the popular cases.

And for the record, the Chieftec Dragon is pretty bland if not bordering on ugly, but the sole reason I like it is the fact that it's ENORMOUS, and that it's the cheapest Full-ATX case on the market.

Plus I've been designing(not professionally, just sketches) cases off of the dragon, cosmos, and P183.

Looks great, reminds me of those all exposed cases that they have in Japan. It was on Tech update a while back.

Why is that?

Also its not necessarily upside down, more like front side up.

if you look closely it's not a reference dual slot card casing, it's using a passive heatsink
