Hi
Im planning my first casebuild, but is the type of person thats keep planning and never get anything build - To many ideas can be a problem
Things that the case no mather what will contain:
- The main build material will be acrylic, my showoff thread here:
http://www.overclock.net/t/1262113/acrylic-showoff-all-different-colors-surfaces-etc
- Pretty highend hardware = 3770k, GTX670, SSD
- Be watercooled ....
1: Keep it very small (mITX Build)
Good things:
It will be a challenge to fit it all in the smallest case possible
Nice to transport - LAN
Be able to outperform much bigger systems
Bad things
Limited room to fit cooling = Less overclocking
Limited space to design details = Maybe less impressive to some
2: All in, the bigger the better (Something like the Caselab M10)
Good things:
Be able to fit some really big RADS = High overclocking
Got room to all the ideas I have and then some.
Bad things
Not easy to transport
All the space and room to design details / ideas could end up beeing a mess = Not a single theme
Im dreaming about this entering Bit-tech mod of the month and ofther contest, but what way should i go ? ....
Im most into the small mITX case, but do you think that a cool custom mITX case, can be just as empressive as a big one ?
- Do people think about the time and planning that can go into a small case, or do a big case full of things just say "Vote on me" more ?
Hope that you understand what im trying to tell
Regards Henrik
