What is the best gaming computer case


















While the design may be minimal, the functionality isn't. Phanteks has made some incredible cases over the years, but the Evolv X stands out as an excellent chassis for anyone looking to build a mid-tower PC with a little something extra.

That extra being the ability to slide two systems into its pleasing form—there's room for an ITX system in the top to go above the main ATX system. It's a bit of a squeeze for sure, but it is possible. If your demands aren't quite so crazy, then you'll find it roomy to build in, and there are enough neat little touches and funky design choices to cover almost any build you have in mind.

There's space for all-in-one liquid coolers in the top up to mm and front up to mm ; it comes with a universal fan hub, three Phanteks Premium mm fans, and has cable-hiding flaps in the rear so that it looks good whichever side you look at. You can slide a frankly ridiculous amount of storage into it as well. Apart from that, it's the same case, which is itself essentially a miniaturized version of one of our favorite mid-tower chassis, the Hi.

Built to support mini-ITX builds, the Hi is all about packing a high-end system into a compact, minimalistic package. With plentiful support for liquid cooling and full-sized components, the Hi is the perfect compromise between smaller ITX builds and larger mid-sized towers.

Once your PC starts heating up and fans begin blowing at full force, your once-silent PC can quickly turn into something that resembles a roaring jet engine.

The Silencio S mid tower looks simple on the outside, but the interior is filled with intelligent engineering and high-quality sound dampening materials to help drown any unnecessary noise. Usually, this comes with a severe compromise for airflow, but the S does a pretty decent job of moving air and keeping things cool despite its silent properties. Speaking of roomy builds, the Corsair Obsidian Series D is a behemoth of a PC case ready to house the biggest and baddest systems.

Standing tall at a staggering The D features a unique triple-chamber design with convenient french-door-styled storage compartments and telescoping radiator trays for easy installation in addition to the stellar cooling support. The Obsidian D has long been a top choice for massive, over-the-top builds, and it only fits that the D was designed to knock it off its throne. Initially known for its silent power supplies and fans, be quiet! One of its more recent cases, the Dark Base Pro , remains one of our highly recommended full towers thanks to its sleek design and enthusiast-friendly interior.

The Dark Base Pro is large enough to support the biggest motherboards and radiators up to mm in size. The case also features total modularity with options for an inverted motherboard layout and even some nifty features like wireless Qi charging and preinstalled LED lighting. However, if you already know how to build a PC, piecing it together shouldn't prove too difficult. For the most part, it's a standard tempered glass mid-tower case with a few bells and whistles to make it all worth the enduring trial and error of the PC building experience.

For one, it has three removable panels—one on the front and one on each side. Naturally, this makes for an easy installation. Incorporating a liquid cooler in its exposed ceiling area is an effortless undertaking. It certainly will. The Corsair Carbide R is all about getting the basics right. It comes with a tempered glass side panel too, which is almost an essential feature in The Dark Base Pro is a massive full tower packed with options.

You can remove and rearrange just about everything, from the hard drive cages to the motherboard tray. Like other be quiet! Additionally, it comes with tons of cable routing options, three excellent Silent Wings 3 fans, and even a Qi wireless charging pad on top.

Additionally, sound dampening material lines all the unexposed surfaces to keep sound to a minimum. You may have to open the front panel from time to time or remove the dampening material at the top of the case to keep things cool. Specifications Form factor: Mid Tower. Drive Bays: 3x 3.

Niels Broekhuijsen. Topics Cases. Tom's Hardware Top Picks. See all comments No thanks. Lian-Li for me. In the info block at the top, the "review" link for the Hi goes to the Define R6 review; it's correct at the page bottom.

Why are front panel USB ports, power switches, activity lights, etc. If I interpret correctly a desktop computer indicates it is placed on your desktop. My last 3 or 4 cases had everything on top and I couldn't see them without standing up and the hard drive activity light was out of sight while I'm sitting in my normal position.

I wish they would start putting front panel stuff on the front panel and not on top of the case. Maybe that's why it's not in the list XD. But you still have the pc o11 air and Lan cool one to test! Reviews for the lancool one digital asap plz! Amongst those that were, I found Corsair Obsidian and Corsair Carbide cases generally good but overpriced.

Personally I liked the Corsair Obsidian D most, but purchased what I consider the next best case and much better value for money - the Antec V2.

Being the first desktop I assembled myself, the Antec made the job a lot easier. Why do so many of the top cases have glass panels? Glass is a bit of a thermal insulator, add unnecessary weight, and serves no practical purpose in a PC case. If you want to see all your gear, don't bother putting it a case.
