Why do all prebuilt gaming PCs have this tranny RGB shit now? Whatever happened to just an opaque tower?

>inb4 build your own lol
no
>>
Just turn the lights off.

>>inb4 build your own lol
Even if you do that like 90% of computer cases have a window now.
>>
You can turn off the lights, but the glass panels will always piss me off.
>>
>>106650824
Because it drives sales.
>>
>why does product designed for consoomers too dumb to build their own gaming system or buy a chinky minipc have flashy useless RGB that's only good for attracting attention
gee I wonder.

>>106651376
Fractal still make windowless options. There's mesh MFF mATX cases like the Asus AP201 or Lian Li A3.
>>
>>106650824
It looks cool bro lol

>>106651415
Just paint it then
>>
>>106651415
I'm ambivalence toward it as long as the DVD-drive bay still there.
>>
>>106650824
If you really don't want to build your own just replace the case and perhaps the fans with anything you like.
You can buy a decent case for $60 and a great one for $200, and you can re-use it over and over again.

You do know how to operate a Philips #2 screwdriver, right???
>>
>>106651376
There are hundreds of cases to choose from so even limiting yourself to 10% still leaves plenty of options.
And many cases come in variations with or without a window, they just tend to show the variation with a window in marketing pictures so you have to search deeper than just by eye.

Time to move on, Gramps.

>There are hundreds of cases to choose from
they are all practically the same
and they all suck

You can't even do it on most of these components without voiding the warranty

why not? If you are smart enough to plug in cables there is literally no upside to paying a 30% premium on your PC components... That are probably a bad choice and has probably bloatware preinstalled for you on the windows home system they provide that you also pay for
>>
>>106651443
don't buy cases with these tiny vents behind a closed front panel if you actually use your pc
>>106651677
This is good. If you don't want to pay extra for the wood you can get the epoch, it's the same
>>
>>106652445
i really like the wood, it just feels classy compared to the other options available
