Why are faggots so autistic about riced out cases?

Why are faggots so autistic about riced out cases?
>>
They are absolutely embarrassing.
>>
Because if you'rte on a budget, you go for the good components, and not for the best-looking case. The cases are already pretty expansive, and seeing as there are no real improvements when it comes to the speed or power of the computer. So most people would rather spend that 100$ on buying a better processor or graphics card.

I don't know but i hate that shit, the stupid lights and shit make it look awful.

I have thought about building a gaming rig in an IBM server case or a pro workstation case

you can get them cheap on ebay, but i think i would have to not just gut it but remover the fasteners and somehow install new mount points for a regular style mobo etc..

I have also thought about building a game rig in pic related just because I think it's a classy case (but i dont run osx) and they are kind of retro as they are not made any more
>>
>>53573299

nobody made them install blinking blue and red leds all over the fucking place on it

also there are plenty of cheap cases out there that are normal boring business cases which can be had used for next to nothing or maybe literally nothing

I don`t get this. What outside of size and amount of fans you attach to the thing can improve airflow? Cable management is possible in any case if you git gud.

1. They are dust magnets
2. They often have shit airflow and no dust protection
3. They are hard to clean
, and most important of all:

Why don't you get yourself to look like pic related OP?
Because he looks like a faggot? Well that's what your case looks like, like a dumbfuck ricing up his hair and looking like a complete retard.

Placement of components relative to fan placement and airflow path. Duh.
>>
>>53573597

it's hard to match those beige colors and the beige plastic is hard to match to the metal part of the case, also it tends to discolor to yellowish as it ages and everyone has seen aged cases like that so people associate a new beige case with cracky yellowish plastic
>>
>>53573684
>low front fan for intake
>high exhaust fan in the back
>complementary side, or top intake on some cases

This is pretty much standard on all cases, the only difference is the size of the fans that can be attached.

Why do you need a riced out case?
To look cool in front of the friends you don't have (who would either way call you a faggot behind your back if they saw your case)?

Because you are like those emo faggots and need to adorn yourself and everything around you to look edgy and shit, as compensation for your lack of personal identity and personality?
>>
>>53573716
And it's also inefficient as fuck. It varies depending on hardware you're using, but generally you'd want an intake fan lined up with your CPU heatsink, and one pointed at your GPU. Side intake might knock off a a degree or two as it's closer to your GPU than front intake, but it's going to be a whole lot more noisy since it's pulling against a grill. Just blowing air around in a case randomly just makes it noisier than necessary without much benefit.

Airflow is overrated anyway.

You can get non-space heater setups running within the specified temperature range for most any GPU in just about any case you come across. It's all a matter of the fan speed.

Sound can be an issue, but there are again a variety of ways of approaching the issue.

For me I'm a lazy shit and simply stick a blower card in whatever case and be done with it.
>>
>>53573597
I have a hunch black plastic is the cheapest plastic to make. You can recycle other plastic and then dye it all black.

It's kind of like how chocolate ice cream is the cheapest ice cream (it's also recycled from other flavors).

Your case has the aesthetic popular among cases today that I call the "humidifier" class of cases. PCs that can be mistaken for household appliances.

How do you fucking figure? Shit has like nine bays, a single stack of like five bays is even removable. Not to mention the SSD mounts on the side.

Because shitty case demand floods the case market with shitty ones. I own a Rosewill Armor Evo, given the prices, features, etc. that other cases had, this was the best decision. There aren't' a lot of good cases. Rosewill, NZXT, and Corsair tend to make the best cases that aren't ricer.

Interesting you mentioned that as I didn't favor the n400. I worked at a computer store doing system builds and wasn't a fan of something about it.Maybe the rear side fans, or just the general size. I looked back at it and it's a great case so I'm unsure what I didn't like about it.

that picture shows the N200 which for a mini tower is awesome. I can take everything of it and only the base frame has rivets, everything else was screwed in. There is a little rear compartment for one or two ssd's on the backside of it, which when z77/87 were still new, was great because msata/m.2 wasn't a thing yet.

Find me a more utilitarian case than pic related.

Only thing I hate about it is the drive bays pointing out to the side so you have to bend the cables pretty hard even if I do get perpendicular SATA connectors since the drives are still right on top of each other.

I used to be all "1337 h4x0r comptuer ric3 case" with windows, neon lights and water cooling when I was younger.

Now I have a medium sized cheap windowless ATX tower with a crap ton of sound proofing material I lined myself and only 2 of the most quiet 120mm fans I could buy (one intake, one exhaust). I use the stock CPU cooler as well. However, I dumped about $3000 into the actual components.

I guess I am getting more mature with age and experience.
