What is it?

The case is what holds all the other parts of the computer. It is responsible for supporting and protecting everything else in the system.

 

 

What specs should you look out for?

• Size: PC cases come in four main sizes: Full Tower, Mid Tower, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX. Each of these corresponds with a different size of motherboard. The case size you choose could limit other factors, such as the size of your graphics card or the number of storage devices you can install.
• Cooling Efficiency: Your case plays a big role in determining how well air flows through it. Factors such as the amount of fan slots and the amount of open space on the outer panels all help contribute to air flow, which is vital to get your PC running cool and efficiently.
• Aesthetics: Factors like see-through side panels, cable management options, and pre-installed RGB lighting call all contribute to the visual appeal of your PC.

 

 

What do I recommend?

Since your case isn't essential to making your PC run, it is one of the only parts that you can prioritize its looks over everything else. It's important to keep your case's size in mind when buying everything else, since they all have to fit inside the case.
