Why have the choices of PC cases been so terrible since the past like 7 years?

What are you wanting?

It's never been easier to make your own case.

Need radiator space. Nothing about gaymer parts.

>>59679767

Where do you mount your dual 360mm radiators?

You can't even see the LED's on your motherboard.

Why do you post such trash for us to consume?

>>59679813
Runs too hot.

>>59679637
Wrong, if you have the money go for caselabs
>>
>>59680014
I don't like their quality or case design given the money they ask.
>>
>>59680027
stop being poor then, why don't you like their case design? Also their case they make are top quality
>>
>>59679827
Oh ok
>>
>>59680033
>stop being poor then
Sorry?
>why don't you like their case design?
Designed around hdds and components that haven't been relevant for years.

>Also their case they make are top quality
Not really. They have poor fitment and the modularity isn't very great. Paint jobs are meh.
>>
>>59680079
Can you stop lying please. Someone aid me here please
>>
>>59680091
Didn't realize caselabs had shills.
>>
>>59680091
aid you in what? they're shit
>>
>>59679637
Features and airflow are better than they've ever been. Overall design and materials/construction are mediocre to bad, which IMO is due largely to competition forcing costs lower.

You can fit at least two 140x280 radiators in it.
What's the problem?
>>
>>59680724
Eh, they're not interesting though, just different.
>>
>>59680102
Caselabs.
Shills.

Lol, they can't even afford an ad budget.
>>
>>59680744
being different is being interesting

No.

I need 360 at minimum.

Aluminum is a shit case material. I'm glad that meme is finally dead. It's way too easy to strip out the threads in screw holes and it does a terrible job with noise control.

I want everybody to adopt the rotated motherboard layout. It's superior in every way.

honestly this.
It seems like nowadays your best bet is to design your own acording to your needs, unless you want some gayman, rgb, window panels shit.

Eh, that doesn't seem to relate to what was before though.

The statement was that different == interesting, and that's just not the case.
You're different, but you're not interesting.

I wouldn't even know where to start.
Do they sell build-your-own-case kits or something?
>>
>>59679637
>That basically nonexistant gap between standard mid ATX and full retard ITX cases with no room in them
Why isn't mATX the most popular format?
>>
Front panel USB C when?
>>
>>59684285
Why?
>>
>>59684232

Because it sits right in the middle of being too big to be a SFF. And too small to be anything but a budget board.

You should really be pushing for DTX motherboards and cases with 4 slots.
>>
IDK why people keep buying ATX and mATX cases now that the 5.25" drive bay is dead. I can fit an m.2 SSD, a 3.5" hard drive, a water cooler for the CPU, a full sized graphics card, and still have room for another 2.5" drive in my ITX case. I mean if you have a lot of drives, or actually use your PCIe slots for anything other than a single graphics card, ITX is out of the question, but most people aren't like that.
>>
>>59684294
My phone is USB C and more and more peripherals are starting to use USB C. Like the Nintendo Switch controller is USB C and that works on PC. It'd be nice to have one USB A port and one USB C port on the front panel of my computer.

>not building your PC case out of Legos
>>
Because nobody buys PCs anymore, since smartphones came out.

So, there's just not much money to make in the PC case market anymore. Less money, less motivation to compete for a niche, stagnant technology.
