I have created a computer case out of pure chocolate
it attracts bugs and melts a little when it overheats but when I need a snack I take a bite
>>344511245
I just hang everything in the air from wires nailed to the ceiling
glued my parts to my desk
cases are so unnecessary
Idk man. It has dell or HP or something on the side of it
>>344512348
You got a pre-built? What vidya do you play on it?
HAF 932
the full tower was nice for the extra air flow, but overall was probably a mistake
Got a zalman z3 plus

Werks for $19.
Only bad thing is no USB 3.0.
I dont use it anyway.

meme case, see it a lot
I just recently put in an order for a Mercury S8 from the god-emperor of case manufacturers - CaseLabs. If you're going to spend more than $250-300 on a case, they make some of the best around.
>>344515735
I love these single room ones that are crammed full of shit most people would have spread out through their homes because you know it's a guy that lives with his parents but spends all his money on this shit.

It's not my pic but I have the same case and mine also lay on its side. I broke clip from my cpu fan so it has to be like this. I could fix me a new one but I'm cheap and lazy so nope.
Good news is that gravity alone is good enough if you didn't OC'd your cpu.

NZXT 210, the mix of USB 2 and 3 on the front bothers me more than it should, solid af case otherwise.

Nice. Pretty much the same as mine.
Don't know why all the other manchildren in this thread enjoy slapping ugly LEDs all over their case
>>344512537
Not him, but I got a used pre-built for practically nothing. Just bought a new CPU GPU and Ram and it was golden.
Corsair Carbide 400R.
Pretty much has everything I need. Couldn't ask for more.
>>344516368

It's a nice little case.
Could have been a bit cheaper seeing as the finish is kind of shoddy quality, but oh well. The fan hub is nice.

Mine looks similar, no idea what it actually is because we used old pharmacy PCs for the case and replaced the innards, with the exception of drives.
In retrospect, it wasn't really that good of an idea.
>>344518918
Sheit was about to post that
I feel the same way
I just really don't like the classical tower look and wanted something different, but honestly it''s not too pretty as well
>>344519243
Are you talking about 804 or 304?
i'm a unique snowflake
>>344519453
Fuck I posted the wrong one.
Yeah I have a 304 as well.
>>344519541
I refuse to believe anyone would willingly buy that junk
>>344519541
Is that snowlake also cold enough (as snowlake it should be). And frankly it's pretty neat design.
>>344519557
My biggest mistake was getting that meme cooler Hyper 212. Shit was eating so much space it's not funny, should gone with one of those AIO water cooler instead, could saved so much space.
I like making sleeper PCs
>>344519696
What the fuck, am I talking with a parallel universe me. I don't really regret it though, it still fits
The one and only. That said the /g/ in me wants a be quiet base 900 pro despite it not offering anything for me that the R4 doesn't do, I just feel the itch.
>>344519962
It's great.
>>344519946
It does fit although I have to set the fan up a bit cause my RAM is obstructing the lowest part.
Also getting those front panel pins in was nightmare.
On the other hand CPU temp is really damn fine.

Imagine placing a mid tower on its side and laying another on top it. That's how big this thing is.

It's modest and I would have done something different with the motherboard.
Still it's a decent rig and fuck anybody who thinks it isn't pretty nice.
>>344522278
What's this? It's been years since I saw an oldschool looking case that doesn't come in a shade of piss-yellow. I can dig this aesthetic.
>>344522237
>>344522310
For once /g/ is right about something - there is a reason why the R4 and R5 are the only /g/ approved cases.
Are there any cases that don't look "GAMURRR"?

it's a nice, small case. it gets a bit hot sometimes, up to about 60 celsius, but it can fit in my suitcase so it's worth it.
>>344522626
/g/ is biased and retarded. I use the biggest POS case I can find with the most outlet holes.
absolute perfection
>>344522674
As mentioned by a few others in the thread, the Fractal R4/R5.
If I could justify being a retard with my money I'd get this because I think it'scutethough.
>>344512627
open air is not good for cooling unless you have a fan on it. The case is supposed to suck air in and blow it out. Just radiating is not good, even in a cold room.
>>344522785
Not anything I would do. I need space for plasma cooling. I know how it works and how to maintain it.
>>344522674
I have an antec. Its just a black case with some blue lights. I like it.
>>344522674
Are you blind?
There's been several utilitarian style cases posted already.
Best case ive ever had!
Got this ugly as sin antec gx 500, only got it because it has pretty good functionality and was dirt cheap.
They could at least have warned you that there is a huge fucking blue led power indicator on the top that spans the entire width of the case, hate that shit.
Considering an upgrade though, thoughts on the Define r5?

What happens if the fan on the heatsink is facing down instead of the case fan?
The guy who assembled it placed it there but every picture I've seen in and out of this thread always showed the fan not facing down

>>344523273
He might be from Brazil. They're fucking insane.
It's probably my favorite case I've owned so far

Never put yourself in an awkward position no matter how improbable it may seem.

>>344523303
The mastercase is a bit heavy, If you lift then yes if a skeleton then absolutely not.
>>344523036
I used that before, here's my issues with it;
>too wide
>only 2 HDD spots
>no noise absorption
>so much room for cable management led to just leaving the cables in a mess
>cheap plastic for glass makes the whole sidepanel flexible and no noise dampening
>Meh quality overall
Cable management sucks, but airflow and build quality are fantastic.

Weren't you the one that had to explain to his wife why the ceiling was now in pieces? Didn't it turn out your idiocy discovered there had been a leak in your roof and there was a load of standing water?

>>344524579
If pc parts can pull down studwork you've got way, way bigger problems.
Funnily enough its a mistake a lot of people who are getting into bdsm make - they bolt their various bondage setups to the ceiling and not the studwork and human bodyweight pulls the lot down.

That's an American thing right? Because all around the rest of the western world houses are built on concrete.
>>344524953
>concrete in the ceiling
Do they actually do that with your house?
>>344524953
Since when do you have a concrete ceiling? All the internal walls of houses are wood.
>>344524953
M8, unless you live in an area that gets heavy storms/cyclones/hurricanes, wooden frame and steel frame homes are about as common as insects in your back yard.
You should buy Corsair™, Coolermaster™, Fractal Design™ and Phanteks™ cases. They offer great performance and price.
>>344525021
>>344525049
Yes that's what I'm saying. Your wood fixation is an American thing, most of the world builds their houses on concrete/cement/stone/other hard substances. Obviously it's painted on afterward, this is just a raw picture example.
>>344525265
No they don't. The outer frame of houses will be brick or concrete but internally its all wood.
>>344525541
Brick and mortar my man
>>344525265

It easily fits in the footwell of the backseat of a car. I was pretty satisfied with its temperatures too considering it's a mITX.

Antec Three Hundred.
It has no lights other than a blue one on the power button. It has no USB 3.0 ports. It's somewhat cramped once you start getting more drives in it. It's heavy. It has no card reader and one of the front USB ports doesn't work.
It's also sturdy and durable enough to easily use as a chair. I've used it for almost a decade with multiple full rebuilds of its guts and it still holds up perfect albeit with some dents and scuffs.
