1472913 2020-11-09 04:16:00 I am still using a 2009 computer case a mid tower kinda server style from Antec. No glass panels, no magnetic dust filter, no back side with cable management. Quite heavy thou must be at least 5Kg, Has 4x 3.5 bays (non external accessible), 3x 5.25 bays (external accessible) and 1 bay for a floppy drive (also external accessible).

What do you use?

1472915 2020-11-09 05:08:00 Which one ?? :p

Generally Mid - mini Towers, the one under the TV is a Media Case, Thermaltake Tenor Quite old, had several different rebuilds over the years, Got one HP AIO that a person gave me, he was always having problem with it, corrupting at least every other month, blaming the OS, told him its not a OS or hardware problem, its something he's doing ;) he brought a new one - same problems, The one he gave away - running fine for at least 3 years with no problems. Got several ProLiant servers (full tower Cases) weigh a LOT, they are really solidly built :D

1472917 2020-11-23 20:21:00 Hey, I use a laptop and I'm fine, but I think to choose a desktop and this topic is useful for me. ClarissaBull (17712)

Hello,

I'll always prefer a desktop to a laptop (I'm rather old-fashioned). I'm currently looking at an NZXT S340 Elite and Fractal Meshify C. Both are rather good and the price is ok for me. I've come across positive comments on Phanteks Enthoo Evolv x, but I'm not sure. Does anyone have any of these three? Any other good alternatives?

Always depends on what hardware you're using but I'd go with the fractal . I've owned 3 fractal cases and have zero complaints about build quality . Corsair build quality is on par in my experience . I'm currently using a Define Mini C for the gaming pc .

Phanteks cases are good value but they take some short cuts on the cheaper models that other brands don't . e . g . punch out expansion slots rather than screwed in covers . NZXT make good cases as well but they do use thinner sheet metal on at least the cheaper models compared to others at that price point . Also their gloss powdercoat isn't that flash .
