Hey, I've been looking around for a case for my setup and noticed that most "normal" cases would have the glass facing away from me, since I'd have the PC on my left side.

 

Inverted cases are mostly either way too expensive or really hard to come by where I live, so I ask: Is there any way I could use a normal case and have the glass side panel side facing me?

 

It's not so much about aesthetics as it is about practicality and ease of maintenance, because I'd like to not move my case any time I need to work on the front side.

 

Thank you.

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

I guess, but then I'd have a mess of cables dangling off the side of my desk.

Stand it on it's top. That is the  only way to get the glass on the other side while keeping the cables in the back.
