all cases do is make your system run hotter, a literal recycle bin open air mount is an upgrade, cases are only yet another excuse for tech companies to convince consumers to part with their money, a box of plastic with holes and screws serves the same functional purpose as a case

I really want pic related

The top mounted PSU and weird side ways fans at the top looks weird, I'm not sure how airflow would work but I'm thinking

Is there a case with a QI charger on top?

I see all these cases like >>55109174 where there is clearly a spot to store devices on top, but I don't think I've ever seen one with a QI charger built in right there and I feel like that's a real missed opportunity.

>>55109082
setting the fans up against convection is a bad idea.

you'll have to go with intake at the bottom and exhaust at the top and rear.

there're plenty of simple PC cases for 20-50$ that have everything you need. people pay more for cases because of some features and/or aesthetics they like.

I've seen worse hobbies that people spend money on.

now fuck off and care about your own business if you don't like it.

Fucking love this case.Great air flow, loaded it with fans, still plenty of room. Its fucking orange, my favorite. It's not some fucking transformers looking neon box. ^^
>>
>>55112674
cons are that it takes up a lot of space and it has no sound isolation. case has more holes in it than a swiss cheese for maximum airflow. obviously that means you'll hear your fans more under full load.

doesn't bother me cause I always use closed headphones when my system is under load but some people don't like it.

apart from that it's pretty gud. plenty of space for cable management. hell, it's like you have a second case slapped on to throw cables, PSU and some drives in.

This.
I run my fans all at a fixed 30% and temps are just fine, near silent unless my GPU starts getting hot, but its great for watercooling as well, pump in PSU compartment and custom mount for a radiator.
Can't wait for a 1070 FTW waterblock so I can watercool my GPU too.
