New Case

Deuce

Looking for a new Case..smashed the Plexiglasswindow while moving on the old one...

I think i will also upgrade my hardware after Christmas. I like some space but not certain about the Size i need for the Case. Normally i buy pretty Highend, so more would be better i think. I Have a Titan (1Gen) in my actual Rig)

 

Not sure if i go for Air or Water. I like the Style of Cases like the Inwin 303 or Jonsbo 4U. Maybe there are other ones looking similar? Or are they already pretty good?

I really like corsairs cases, for example: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Cases/Software-Control-and-Monitoring-Cases/Obsidian-Series-500D-RGB-SE-Premium-Mid-Tower-Case/p/CC-9011139-WW

 

They have plenty more too chose from. And for size from what i found with my experiences is that the smaller the better. A giant case sure gets annoying after awhile.

Look into some nzxt cases. I'm a semi-fanboy for their stuff but they make some cool looking cases that you might like

Coolermaster H500 for the airflow

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

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 would look into the NZXT H700 or the Define R6, which have similar looks but better airflow than some other closed off front panel designs due to having ventilations along the side instead of at the tops/bottoms (or none at all!)

 

Would the case that you happened to smash in the side panel still be the Caselabs STH10 mentioned in your post from 2013? 

If so, what kind of cooling solution are you using?
