Which is the better option?

Overkilled

I'm really looking to improve the overall look of my room ill have £140 to do so.

This is my current setup

161170.355f01876541ce129a9ab12df1dc36a8.

 

 

Now I could spend pretty much all the money on this masterpiece of a case, the inwin 805.

Or I could go with this £80 pound Phanteks enthoo pro m acrylic and spend the rest of the money on these logitech speakers and even a new white ikea desk

I wanna go with sort of a black and white or white setup, imo the inwin is by far the best looking case but which option will have the most overall impact to the setup?

I actually have 5.1 surround sound and a mouse pad their just not on the desk in the pic, again the logitech speakers are literally just for the looks. My case is pretty battered and needs replacing tbh as well

Probably none, and just save up for some better speakers/audio stuff if you care about audio

Or invest in some power tools if you don't already have some and build a custom desk.

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

I'm salvaging anything I can from it, one of the reasons im getting rid of it is that I broke one of the power cables when I took it apart so it basically turns on by itself...

You can just cut/strip the power switch wires and just cross them when you want to turn it on if you broke the switch.

It's got one already but it's pretty useless

I can put my cover over the top of the one already in the 805
