Best PC case of the year
>blocks your path
>glass side*sigh*
For me? It's the Fractal Torrent
I turned myself into a pickle op!
>>106513237>/g/s favorite Taiwan slop vendor does something >suddenly it's the bestIDK what the difference is between the OP pic and my no name case that has fans in all the same positionsHell, I can even mount a rad at the bottom.
>>106513306It's the only objectively good case without glass panels, but it's too big, too heavy, the feet have too much grip, and the panels come off way too easily when you try to pick it up. Moving my PC is a nightmare.
>>106513373>the feet have too much gripwhat’s the use case for slippery feet
>>106513373>too big & too heavyWhat about the Torrent Compact or Nano?
>>106513381Moving the PC around. Come on now.>>106513390I was buying cutting-edge parts and I was worried about suffocating them. Maybe that wasn't the brightest idea.
>>106513237I would've bought it but no top I/O which is dumb that side I/O placement isn't ideal for me. They used to have it in both places and the newer glass version will return the top I/O too so this model gets screwed just on that oversight
>>106513237> anything glass sidedOP just announce you like sucking cocks.
If they sold a version that didn't have any of the wood, I would get one.
>>106513523What’s the use case for ‘moving the PC around’
What about a case from junkyard from 2000s? My ATX gaming case with am4 after socket 462 always will be cool and it hasn't so awful look. For upgrade to r7 5700x it's enough with 2-3 coolers, because this windproof coffin needs more air flows for powerful variations.
>>106513237Looks better than my bequiet. :(
Woodslop stands no chance
>>106513237Wrong
>>106513237no external bays, weird location for ioports, like this thing is not even made to be on the floor, is that woodgrain, holy bad taste... if you have your case on the desk you're gay or kid just saying.
>>106513373>>106513306This case was able to withstand my 18mo toddler pushing on it (because my lovely, fantastic wife opened the door to my home office while I was on a business trip because "the baby wanted to see it"). She literally took a picture of it and said that she's nervous that it's too heavy for having a child in the house and "what would happen if it falls on him." Thank you for reading my fucking blog
>>106513523>Moving the PC aroundWhy? And if you really need to just pick it up and move it, retard.
>>106515367Why the fuck are these so expensive?
Cases are so ugly these days it kills what little will people have left for building pc's.Like manufacturers have one task here, to design a case and they come with gaudy shit like this thread.
>>106515604No idea, hoping I can snag one on sale if they don't sell too well at that price. Silver one looks fantastic.
>>106515483Just teach your toddler not to touch it. I can't get my kids to stop putting their grubby fingers on my television, but they know they're not allowed to touch the computer. Sucks about the wife, I know the feeling.
>>106513306i wonder why modern cases no longer have the psu at the top, using it as an additional exhaust seems like a good idea
>>106513237Objectively wrong.
>>106515367Holy shit, I never saw this and need one.
>>106517586fear of it coming loose and hitting shit on the way down
>>106517639The torrent has it in a compartment, wouldn't happen if they spend the extra $0.03 on something to hold it up there.
>>106517613>best of the yearwhich year are we talking about?
>>106513799>>106515590Because I want to move it between my office and my living room occasionally. I'm making VR games. There isn't enough room in my office for two dipshits to flail around whenever I invite my friend to hang out and try my game.>just pick it up and move itIt's very heavy and I'm a weak man. Besides, the panels tend to fall off when I lift it since they're held on with magnets.
>>106518365just have it on a stand with wheels?
>>106513237>glass panel>i/o ans power button in stupid spot>woodNo.
>>106518658>wood>bad
retards really think the pc case wasn't solved decades ago and that they need to buy the new and improved version every yearit's a fuckin box with holes broenjoy your rgb, faggots.
>>106513306this reminds me of a skyline gtr r35 for some reason
Nothing comes close. I wish they would make a solid panel variant though. I don't really care about staring at my internal components.
>mid tower
>>106519610
PC cases were solved long time ago>but muh miniatxGPU thermal throttle>but muh tempered glass coffinGPU thermal throttle
>>106513237I built a machine for a friend using that case recently, was great, 8/8 would do again
does anyone else orient all the fans on the top and front as intake and only use the rear fan as an exhaust? tons of positive pressure leave no dust, and temps stay icy cold
>>106513237>Best PC case of the yearhas blue stuff pouring out of it
>>106513250They don't make it anymore
>>106519610>solid panel variantThe primary point of the case's layout is to show off your components. A solid panel variant would be nonsensical.
>>106520467um actually the case is designed to solve a simple problem: sagging GPUs by rotating the board and letting them be vertical rather than horizontal. There's no reason not to give people the option to have solid. It would cost them less money than having to have glass panels supplied.
>>106515604They aren't that expensive lol, most cpus cost that much.
Any case with 12x 140mm?
>>106513306I can't decide between Torrent compact and asus proart pa602.asus is more expensive and bigger than normal torrent but it uses less plastic and has bigger fans
>>106513322fpbp
>>106515457>no external baysAre you some kind of mouthbreather?
>>106523411This giant billboard area always cracks me up
Do you think it's useful to put a fan here ? (I have an extra fan but the power supply is right under that spot)
>>106525271
>>106513237No BR drive?
>>106523411Why even have case sides at this point. Just make it out of bolted together fans.
>>106525641zoomers need a pride parade lightshow going on right next to them at all times
