idk why but i dont consider games like uncharted AAA. games that are backed by sony/MS have alot more freedom than Ubi/activision etc

they are'nt pressured with yearly installments, deadlines. and no day one patches and gamebreaking bugs and such.

with the exception of MCC these games dont get released completely broken

its above AAA imo

halo 1 and 2 were actually good but the rest is shit. and the first two parts are available on pc so your argument is invalid.

comes later to pc. i guess sony and ms paid r* for the delay because the consolefags will be pretty disappointed if they see the graphics on the pc, plus the ability for a shitton of modding which will make the game timeless (look at skyrim).

>System Wattage with GPU in FULL Stress = 624W
>Mind you that the system wattage is measured at the wall socket side
so assuming 90% PSU efficiency that's about 560W at full stress. you can fit short ATX power supplies up to like 140mm (non-modular) such as the 125mm Nexus NX-5000 V1 550W Real Silent PSU, or you can fit the 600W SFX or 500W SFX-L PSU. like 3 different brands have versions of the 600W SFX power supply but silverstone is supposed to have the best one.

Too much cheap plastic and too little space to properly manage your cables for the price of this case.
But apart from that it had the best aircooling I ever experienced in a build. Having a quiet case was really easy with that thing.
Wouldn't buy it again tho.

>>46897795
The 550D is an excellent alternative.

>>46897652

For the price of the 550D I'd rather take a Define R5 that doesn't come with the "remove your front IO connections before opening the door" issue.
I'd also get a NZXT H440 or S320 if NZXT would offer a windowless version.

What exactly does the FT02 offer that a ~$100 dollar equivalent wouldn't?
>>
>>46897652
a high-end pc costs thousands of dollars. why buy a $30 case for it if you can easily afford a better-looking, higher-quality, higher-functioning $300+ case?
>>
>>46894798
All Nintendo games. Honestly the only console I would buy is the Wii U.
>>
>>46898194
See >>46898168

What does a $300 case bring to the table that a $100 case doesn't? It's just a shell for the computer, as long as it has decent airflow, decent aesthetics, enough room for your components and dust filters, what more could you possibly hope for? All these are present in many ~$100 cases, such as the official meme case of /g/, the Fractal Design R4.
>>
>>46898281
>decent aesthetics
This is exactly the point. Decent aesthetics is a very subjective term to describe a case. While some might think a gaudy NZXT Phantom looks absolutely gorgeous, others might vomit at the sight of it.
Talking about functionality then there's basically next to none differentiation. Each case houses PC components and is able to provide cooling for them.
It's just a matter of preference what case you'll end up with. And if you have the extra dough to blow and don't mind paying extra, why not?
>>
>>46898281
~$100 cases are usually made of plastic and steel, look like shit and have lots of shitty little details such as crappy hard drive bays. the ncase m1 for instance is $185 and is made entirely of aluminium, the exterior panels are anodized brushed aluminium, and it's simply unrivaled in size, aesthetics as well as hardware support for its size. if you don't care what your computer looks like, how big it is, what it weighs, what it feels like, how much noise it makes, then fine, buy any ~$100 case that supports the hardware you want to put it in it.

>>
>>46888291
I just can't get behind window designs. I don't have anyone who'd know what the fuck is going on inside the case want to actually look at it anyhow. The bright ass illumination tends to just be ignored either.

My case is just a black steel box tucked away. Is this normal, or have I stumbled into pleb tier shit?
>>
>>46898599
it's normal. i don't know what i was thinking as a teen with the bright ass cold cathodes and LEDs. now i'd have at most an unlit side window but only for some baller custom watercooled build with perfect tubing and cable management.
