My only question. Is it worth it?

I want to get the

NZXT H510 case

More fans

And better heat sink (currently has stock) or an AIO

 

I want to be proud of how it looks to other people xD considering it's at my dad's office and basically on display.

What do you yall think??

I'd like to know personal opinions

That more fans part I think that case is safer than the H510 depending on if your PC needs to breather

Reminder⚠️

I'm just speaking from experience so what I say may not work 100%

Please try searching up the answer before you post here but I am always glad to help

Well, you're not going to impress anyone with that case, and so if you value that aspect then I guess its "worth it", but worth is a meaningless term that only you (and your dad) can answer. What is the value of a good looking PC to you (in dollars), if the "money you are willing to spend for a good looking PC" is more than then the cost to upgrade to a H510, then its "worth it", I guess.
