A computer case is the machine's frame: it protects the components, directs the airflow and determines what the finished build looks like. This category has cases from mid towers all the way to full-size super towers, from Corsair, Fractal Design and DeepCool among others. There are plain black chassis as well as models with a tempered glass side panel or ARGB lighting, in light and dark shades alike. Four things are worth confirming before you choose. First, the motherboard size: the case has to support your own board, ATX, micro-ATX or mini-ITX for example. Second, the clearances, since a long graphics card, a tall CPU cooler and a liquid cooling radiator each need room of their own. Third, ventilation: a mesh front panel, enough fan mounts and dust filters keep temperatures in check. Fourth, practicality, meaning cable management and the front panel connectors. With these criteria you will find a case that serves both your current build and future upgrades.
