Patrik Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I personally prefer simple cases and would invest the extra RGB stuff costs on a better CPU & GPU if possible 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 If you have office based setup or have work from home office type setup then fancy would be distracting while you are working. I think I'd definitely go for that long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason5 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 I prefer simple, i dislike the lights produced by new PC cases. Decent case with 2 or 3 fans and budget friendly is fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean some parts not going to be worth much like when it was new but most parts that I have are not even year old anyway. and not to mention still can get them on amazon for full price and new. Just make sure to keep an eye on those watercooling tubes because one small leak and it's game over...

I mean glass can get a bit heat up inside but fiber would be pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always look after my gear to last, the AIO can last good 10 years 🙂 There are method's to looking after the gear. 10 hours ago, skyfire said: I wonder if they in near future start making one side fiber part which makes seeing through it transparent and may look cool.

So yes seen them and looks damn cool. With whatever colour liquid.  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Have to check on those models in that case. I also recently looked at one of the tabletop glowing jelly I wonder what will happen if they happen to integrate it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Withywarlock Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 My gun metal grey Phanteks P400 has really grown on me over the few years I've had it, and I find it almost a shame I'll be replacing its boring front panel with a mesh cover for breathability and getting more out of the green RGB lighting I've got within. So honestly, I think I prefer the more simple cases for their affordability and having an appeal in a world of overdesigned PCs. The only downside is that the window's on the left-hand side so I've just got a grey slab to look at as the PC sits on my left. If I ever do decide to get another case, I'd want it so I could see everything on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old case that I still got was a full ATX case with a slide clear panel on the side. Cooler master storm trooper. Great case and it was able to take 8 drive slots and it was big to add three GPUs. However it was old outdated style and it was far to big.  Now, this is the case that I have 🙂  This is what I want when I start making more money again lol. This looks so freaking good. For now I have a simple MS case black and gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Same with me. I am more invested into the laptop and that kind of does the work for me. I want to keep things that way as well. But if I can have my space I would go for such fancy display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does look cool but seen so many peoples setup that I think looks even better then mine well in terms of what hardware they have. I mean I wish I had a 3080 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I am going to wait till the 3080 gets a bit progressed. I think 2022 would be bringing more options in near future we all have to wait and see how that one goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 I kind of want to mix old with new. An old PC case with a glass panel maybe, some LED lighting and so on. I like the look of old and new combined, so maybe I'll go that direction. I can probably find a nice tower for cheap or free and just modify it. 😄 Would be a fun project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
