Vertical PC Building VS Horizontal PC Building

CJHP

How many people have built a PC Case horizontally and how many people have built a pc case vertically??

 

Doing some research for a School project! 

 

1 - Horizontal

2 - Vertical

 

Would love to know why as well if you have the time!!

Give us some examples cus ive built my PC like ive done for 30 years. I dont know what you mean.

When i ask for more specs, don't expect me to know the answer!
I'm just helping YOU to help YOURSELF!
(The more info you give the easier it is for others to help you out!)

Not willing to capitulate to the ignorance of the masses!

Do you mean flat (old skool desktop), as opposed to tower?  Not even sure you can get 'traditional' desktop cases any more...

I frequently edit any posts you may quote; please check for anything I 'may' have added.

 

Did you test boot it, before you built in into the case?

WHY NOT...?!

So for example, on recent LTT videos like this 

 Where Anthony builds his PC lying down on the desk

 

Whereas Linus, builds his PC standing up on its case feet. 

 

Thanks!

You mean what attitude the case is in, when you build it...?  Purely personal, I'd say... but I mix as the need requires.

I'm referring to the way a PC builder builds inside their case, rather than the way the case is designed. 

 

Horizontal building like Anthony

 

Vertical building like Linus

Do you put your motherboard in like Anthony or like Linus?

 

Thanks!

... with an option for 'both'; sometimes it's impossible to do some tasks in either orientation.

I'll try and make a poll now. What do you think would be the names for the two answers in the poll, because the way i asked it before seems to have brought a lot of confusion to what i mean.

Purely that aspect of the build - Horizontal (safer).
