help Best computer full tower case?

[GrizzlyBear0]

What's the Best computer full tower case? or in general what's the best case currently if anyone knows or could help me out, like sure i can google and already did and saw a few but i prefer first hand experience advice from people that tried these cases and know what their talking about,

So if anyone can help me out with deciding what the best computer case is that would be appreciated lets just assume there's no money budget on this case.

Case will be for gaming, noise wise i do care  but not a lot cuz i can always manually turn on all fan speeds to low at night time if im trying to sleep so it wont affect me.

I prefer it to have a lot of space/size

From what i know full tower is the biggest case so ill be going for a full tower.

There is no best. Best for what?

I know that in general i'm simply unsure like what should i look for other than space because space was my issue in my last one.

I'm planning to build a full pc preferably with full tower so space isn't an issue cuz my current computer has a random small case and it was quite annoying organizing or moving things around in it,

So i'm planning to buy a new whole computer setup in general and wanna start with the case i'm planning on getting a 4090 gpu

What is the use case for the computer?  Is it a gaming box, or a server....
 

What are the likely specs and components?  Things like GPUs or coolers have specific sizes.  Are HDDs required?

 

What about noise (do you care)?

It's going to be for Gaming and everything else in general but mostly gaming, well i'm gonna be using ssds only but i prefer have space for at least 1 hdd just incase.

Noise isn't really an issue i guess unless i'm keeping my computer up all night and trying to sleep with it on which is rare

in general i always lower fans if im doing that so i don't hear it much

But i do care about noise to a certain point i guess i do believe though any case is better than my current random case

How long is a piece of string? What's the best kind of hat?

 

There are so many variables to account for (even ignoring aesthetics) that there's really no definitive "best" case overall. Taste is subjective, and aside from the amount of fans they accommodate the case really doesn't affect performance directly. More expensive cases generally have better build quality, but if you're building once does that really matter all that much?

 

Window shop a bit and post a few cases that catch your eye, and we can give you opinions on them or post similar alternatives to consider.

Variables such as what that's why i'm here to learn about these variable and tell you guys what i think so hopefully someone can suggest a good case

I mean there's computer cases that caught my eye however i cant really decide
Fractal Design North
be quiet! Shadow Base 800 FX
Corsair Obsidian Series 4000X RGB

Corsair Obsidian 1000D

Lian-Li PC-O11 Dynamic

Cooler Master Silencio S600

HYTE Y70 Touch

Physical size, motherboard form factor, number of drive bays, number of fan mounting points, whether there's a window, whether there's a partition separating the power supply from the rest of the parts, color, number and blinkyness of any RGB that's present... There's a lot that's relies on subjective taste more than "you want X so therefore you need case Y because case Y does X best".  

 

Mesh is better for airflow than little slots or a solid panel.

 

If you want to run a custom water cooling loop or an AIO, you need a case that has multiple 120mm fan mounts together.

 

If you're running a high end GPU, the motherboard space needs to be long and deep enough to accommodate the card and its cables.

 

The cases you listed are all good mATX towers. Of the lot, personally I'd go for the North. I don't like solid front panels (for airflow reasons) or RGB computer parts terrariums (for aesthetics).

Do you have any other full tower case suggestions other than these? from ur own opinion/list?

Which brings up another one, how dusty is your environment?

 

I absolutely HAVE to use cases with fine dust filters, which limits the choice even more.

 

Currently using the be quiet! Dark Base Pro 901 in the inverted configuration.

Hmm good question i never really thought about how dusty my room is, i'm unsure i guess normal?

I'm also gonna start putting my computer like on top of a desk or in it's own like thingy so it's not on the floor etc gathering even more dust

Raising it off the floor definitely helps.

 

Also bear in mind that when most people talk about tower cases, they usually mean mid tower which are much smaller and are really designed for desk use.

 

A full tower like the 901 is massive and intended to be on the floor (I put it on a few wooden panels so its not on the carpet).  Its almost as tall as my desk and nearly put my back out building it due to the bulk and weight.

 

I did try it on the desk at first which was hilarious as I couldn't reach the Qi charger on the top, even the front panel ports were kinda awkward.  Ironically the optical drive I have in the bottom is a pain to reach on the floor, but its only there for emergencies as I have a different machine I use for ripping Blurays.
