Actually my father asked me this, once. I asked him why his car was so big, he said that he totally understood and never asked again.

Awesome dad.
I put my pain, my heart, my soul, my faith in this.

epeen; unless you actually need such a large case. For example, a folding rig armed with 4-8 GPUs, 2 CPUs, etc., would benefits from such a large case. Although you'll nearly always benefit from the marketed larger cases, the benefits are mediocre at best.
