What case should I get for my PC?

Before anything else, decide what size case you need. There are three major case sizes: Full tower, mid-tower, and mini-ITX. Full-tower and mid-tower cases both fit standard ATX motherboards—by far the most common motherboard size out there. Both can also fit smaller micro-ATX motherboards.

Can you build your own PC case?

There are plenty of materials you can use to build a computer case, but plastic based products will be the safest. Custom building a case out of aluminum or steel would take a lot more effort and machining skill.

What PC case has the best airflow?

Are expensive PC cases worth it?

No, you don't. There are plenty of cheap cases that will do the job. More expensive cases usually offer a more premium look/feel and will have more features, like dust filters, RGB lighting, tempered glass paneling, better cable management options, sound dampening, radiator mounts, drive mounts, yada yada yada.

Are mesh cases better?

Mesh cases will keep your parts cooler but some closed cases are pretty close in thermals. Gamers Nexus has good reviews, especially if you're interested in the thermals of a specific case. I personally like the look of the Meshify C and RL06. If you haven't heard of them, they're worth considering.

Can a PC case be too big?

A larger case has the potential to have more, higher CFM fans and better cycle air through the case to remove heat from the components. But without the right configuration or sufficient fans, 'dead' air inside can still build up heat and be no better than a smaller case.

How hard is it to change PC cases?

Changing cases isn't hard, just time consuming. However, I notice that you have an ATX board which means if you want anything smaller, you need a smaller motherboard like ITX or MATX which I don't think its worth investing ~$200 for case and motherboard just for a smaller form factor.

Are full tower cases worth it?

If you are building a fire-breathing computer with lots of over-clocking (for example, gaming at 4k resolution), you will probably be better off with a full tower case that has enough room for water-cooling. And even if you do not use a water-cooling setup, a full tower PC case gives you place for bigger fans.

Are wooden PC cases safe?

Thanks for any replies. Well none of the really hot components (CPU and GPU chips) will be touching the wood. Also safe operating temperatures are well below the point where either of those start to burn. ... There is zero reason to use treated wood in a PC case that will never be exposed to the elements.

Can you build a PC case out of wood?

As long as the wood is completely dry it shouldn't warp. My pc is still in an unfinished wood box, and it's been fine. As far as grounding, if you're really worried, you can always run a wire from one of the standoffs to ground on the psu, but it should be fine regardless.
