Treasures or Trash, 5 PC Cases for Gamers

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the soft-hardware dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Tom's Hardware has a look at 5 different customized PC cases and a few peripheral devices that may be of some interest to gamers. From the article: 'Those who believe it is impossible to make any missteps when buying a gaming case are sadly mistaken. In most cases, you get too much plastic for your hard-earned money. Case components, covers and door panels break off far too easily, and are hard to use besides. That's why we advise savvy buyers to spend a few more dollars on their cases, and make sure they're getting quality components - especially where plastic covers or door panels are present.'"

    First: Did this article need to be 29 pages long?

    I bought a new case recently, for a personal box, and I picked an Sexy Antec Number. In went a 939 board and it's fine and nice.

    It's plain, and simple. Pretty practical. When you buy a case with a big fat batman image on it, or whole bunch of lights and crap, you should be able to guess what you're getting into.
