I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

Spoiler

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Yeah well FE cards are pretty to look at but cooling wise... That's why I go zotac when it comes to Nvidia, powercolor for AMD.

ThermalTake Versa H26. It's old, but quite roomy, with 2 5.25 inch drive bays.

 

So, a little bit of the case features:

- Drives bays:

2x 5.25 inch drive bays

2x 3.5 inch drive bays

3x 2.5 inch bays

- Case dimension:

493mm tall (quite tall, has lots of spaces to fit thick radiator at top case),

220mm width (not very wide, can only fit 160mm CPU cooler (actually, it can fit 165mm CPU cooler),

464mm depth (can easily fit 3 fan GPU if no reservoir install)

*This case is generally bigger than most mid-tower ATX case*

- Fan support:

2x 120mm fan at front (3 if you remove the 5.25 inch caddy and not using 5.25 inch drives)

3x 120mm fan or 2x 140mm fan at top

1x 120mm fan at rear

- Radiator support:

240mm at front,

360mm or 280mm at top,

120mm at rear.

- Cable management:

Not really ideal, but still not bad. Most of the cables can be concealed at the back of the motherboard panel.

- Motherboard support:

Support ATX motherboard, but it is possible to support E-ATX motherboard if remove 5.25 inch drive bays caddy

- I/O ports:

2 USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports

2 USB 2.0 ports

Power LED (blue)

HDD LED (red)

Reset button

Power button

*Pretty much standard for its time*

 

Over all, this case is quite 'Versatile', like it's name suggest. You can remove the 5.25 inch drive bays caddy for more spaces. Cable management is quite good for it's time. Quite roomy, so you have more room to manoeuvre when working inside the case. The front bottom part are mesh, so front intake fans can suck in lots of air with minimal resistance. The top case has mesh filter so you can suck in air without worry as dust can be filtered. Can fit a big PSU too.

I have ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder). More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism_spectrum

 

I apologies if my comments or post offends you in any way, or if my rage got a little too far. I'll try my best to make my post as non-offensive as much as possible.

H510 elite looks beautiful, shame it’s performs so badly in terms of thermals. 
 

The O11-Dynamic is overused but can look good when someone knows what they are doing. 
 

The Define 7 is a perfect no-nonsense case. 
 

I like the new CoolerMaster N2000 (I think that’s ehat it’s called?)

There are more things you can fit in 5.25 inch drive bays than optical drives. I'm currently using LTO Tape drive for backup, which fit nicely in 5.25 inch drive bay.

 

You also can fit quick release or hot swapping disk drive modules such as this:

https://my.rs-online.com/web/p/hard-drive-accessories/1238039?cm_mmc=MY-PLA-DS3A-_-google-_-PLA_MY_EN_Catch_All-_-Fusion-_-1238039&matchtype=&aud-827186183926:pla-366797395360&gclid=Cj0KCQjw0rr4BRCtARIsAB0_48O_ubuA3lpSenBTEAvAJ4zLCVv7fH336JU1miZJEgzl6d6j9bYNBMcaAqRdEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

 

With this, you can quickly swap HDD in and out instead of open your case, which is very useful if you need to boot different operating system.
