What case

Go to solution Solved by NoRomanBatmansAllowed,

Let's be honest with ourselves, cheaper cases have a bit cheaper construction. 

Maybe the metal might not be rounded everywhere, maybe some things are riveted instead of screwed. 

 

It might be a bit worse to build in, but you're probably not gonna touch the inside of the computer except maybe a few times a year to dust it out.

 

In my opinion, the 100r is enough for me, but if there's a feature on the 300r you really want, then go ahead and get it.

I'm building a new ATX pc soon, wondering if its worth paying £95 for a corsair titanium 330r or just going with a corsair 100r (I like corsair but am open to suggestions)

I will probably get a dark rock pro 3 in case that affects recommendations due to cooler height

It depends on how much you value the look of each case.

 

There really shouldn't be any performance differences between the 2 cases at all (save for a few Celsius, maybe)

Want to know which mobo to get?

Spoiler

Choose whatever you need. Any more, you're wasting your money. Any less, and you don't get the features you need.

 

Only you know what you need to do with your computer, so nobody's really qualified to answer this question except for you.

So it's just looks? I assumed it would be alot better at ~£45 more, maybe with better functionality
