So I am looking for a computer case for a computer I am building.
I have a couple ideas, but have been looking around and nothing is really jumping out at me for options. It's been a long time since I built a PC.
I am looking for an ATX case, I need 1 or 2 x 5.25 bays and probably 3 or 4 x 3.5 bays at most.
I don't see a huge need for upgrading space.
Should I be looking at a bigger case for cooling purposes? or do the smaller ATX cases work just fine?
Some of the ones I was looking at:
Thermaltake Versa I ATX Mid Tower Case Black 3X5.25 1X3.5 5X3.5INT Front USB3.0 Audio No PSU
Antec One Mid-Tower Gaming ATX Case Black 3X5.25 5X3.5 2X2.5 Front USB3.0 Top Rear 120mm Fans No PSU
This one is a bit more expensive:
Antec P280 XL-ATX Tower Case Black 3X5.25 2X2.5 6X3.5IN 2X120MM Top 1X120MM Rear Front USB3.0 No PSU
but I like that it has dedicated 2.5" bays for SSD.
Any cases that you prefer? suggestions etc.
Or should I just find one that is aesthetically pleasing and call it a day, since they are all the same anyways.
