ATX Case Recommendations

[JohnnyCowboy1098]

I'm unsure about what ATX case to use, going for a blue and black theme. Suggestions?

Define S, NZXT S340, Corsair 400C, Phanteks P400 <- high value/dollar cases

Corsair 460x, Phanteks Enthoo Evolv Atx TG <- bling cases

Can always run your pc cardboard box style until you get it.

 

Or buy a 400C and mod the side-panel with window glass (not hard or expensive to do).

And glass side panels. Yea. The internal is identical. The fans are different, but you can buy those separately.

I need to learn how to mod a case like that, otherwise is an inwin case good enough?

As long as you like the looks. I'm a huge anti-fan of InWin and Lian Li cases because they sacrifice functionality to the aesthetics gods (without even looking that good imho.)

 

Almost any case is good enough...

 

My mod was literally take off the plastic panel, buy a piece of window glass, use black RV silicon to attach it, and GG.

 

 

You could obviously go closer to the edges, or have holes drilled in them instead if you wanted a border-less design.

That is my main thing, I want borderless design, although i would literary need to cut the thing down. Is that window the same size as the stock but just with glass instead of plastic?
