Posted April 17, 2015 To the right, but sideways with the front facing me as I turn my head right (right side of case facing out from the wall, case is about 2 feet away from the wall).

Posted April 17, 2015 Left on top of the desk. I have a giant desk and it can accomodate two rigs, so the right side is the "visitors' section". In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 17, 2015 Right because otherwise my windowed side panel would be hardly seen.

Posted January 26, 2023 I just built my first computer (not currently built but the case and desk is in and got the table set up) using the Corsair Airflow 7000D. Have the computer propped in the corner to the right of my monitor. As much as I love the position I am worried about airflow but, not to be punny, it's a Airflow case so I don't see any REAL concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 26, 2023 Wherever it fits and gets the best airflow, it doesn't have a window so I don't care ◒ ◒ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 26, 2023 Right. I can't see much of the RGB through the tempered glass though, as the speakers are almost the size of my case and block a lot of the view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted January 27, 2023 thats an interesting question, i guess it makes sense to have it on the right because of the "window" for most people, but for me this isn't even a real option because it would block access to most of my room there, well not block, but make it difficult to get around the pc every time. also i dont have the pc "sideways" , thats a weird idea to me personally since im so used to how i set it up.

Posted January 27, 2023 There's a space just left of my desk between it and the wall which conveniently also has an outlet. I can't move my desk to make space to the right because my fiber box blocks it, not to mention the lack of outlet there. So yes, left of me and on the ground. Only issue is that I don't see my components through the tempered glass window.

Posted January 30, 2023 On 4/12/2015 at 1:30 PM, WereCat said: On the right because window is on the left of the case. I think you mean the left hand side, because that os the right of the case since it's facing towards you not away from you.

Posted February 1, 2023 My case is to my left. But technically, my EVGA DG-87 case does not have a right or left side. It actually could be placed on the left or right side of the monitor and still view the window. PRAISE THE LORD AND PASS THE AMMUNITION...
