Best and Worst PC Cases of the Last DECADE!

The last 10 years have seen some of the best PC cases ever released but there have also been some absolute duds where we wondered what the companies were thinking. So as 2020 starts, let's look at the last decade of case design and talk about our most memorable reviews.

I just bought a Lancool II/Red Devil RX5700XT a couple of days ago because of your original reviews. Really good airflow and beautiful aesthetically, i could only find it in white from one re-seller but fortunately i have found it more pleasing to the eye than standard black.

[@Wanooknox]

I watch the reviews from both HWC and GN when I'm looking at cases, because two opinions are better than one. GN gives you a great look at how well the case performs in sound and thermals. HWC gives a better look at the structure and layout of the case, and how easy it is to build with. Both perspectives are important. As far as I'm concerned, the case reviewer of the decade is Stevmitry from Gamers Canucks! 😄

[@jon4715]

The DanCase A4 SFX is probably the most important case of the decade leading into 2020. Disappointing that it isn't mentioned. Even worse, leaving out the late, great CaseLabs is a crime against the PC building community and they deserve to be mentioned more than any other casemaker.

[@AquaStevae]

You left off one of the coolest cases I've seen in the last decade, the CoolerMaster Maker 5T. I still use it today, and it allows me to use an ATX or even EATX mobo, is completely modular, toolless everything and with beautiful tempered glass sides, which are a lot better than the smaller windows many of the ugly cases had. It is also mostly magnetically held together in several places, which makes taking off parts to clean very easy as well. This is a well thought out case, with great airflow, and is quiet.

[@Pienimusta]

Meshify C with dark TG so good

[@TheZoogkiller]

I love building in that case.

That was awesome. I'd love to hear your take on some pre-2010 cases, or cases with optical drive bays in particular. If you have a take on them. They are becoming exceedingly rare. I have a feeling 5.25" bays could make a comeback in the next few years.

[@LoftySkinner]

"Sadly ITX wasn't as popular back then as it is now" well that's because BitFenix single-handedly made it popular. The BitFenix Prodigy (if all variants considered one) was the best-selling case of 2012.

[@Lukiel666]

Still using my CM Storm enforcer case. 200mm front intake fan, clear side panel, 2 each USB 2.0 and 3.0 in front, those 5 1/4" bays I now have put an aftermarket sliding drawer into to hold my USB drives as well as an optical drive, incredible cooling... It is from 2011 and is still a better case than over 90% of the current cases. Tempered glass makes cases heavy to move and more breakable. Prefer plastic. Lack of 5 1/4" bays means no optical drive and I still have lots of DVDs. Aftermarket sliding drawers for these bays are great for storing USB drives, thermal paste, spare sata cables, various screws and MB/case parts and so on.

I would describe it more as function over form. My Corsair 900D is ugly as hell and huge, but very functional. Case manufacturers over the 2010's had to design more creative cases to keep people buying cases as ATX form factor has not changed since 1995. If you really wanted you could build a modern PC in a case from the late 90's and be perfectly fine. You can see in the mid 2010's a lot of design changed fell flat on their faces as they chased design over function. It seems now in 2020, they have learned a bit from that mistake.

I am running a i7-4790K with a modest over clocked to 4.4 ghz on all cores and never go above 60c on temps and my GPU (a GTX 1080) never goes above 75c (these are gaming numbers).

Hi Hardware Canucks. May I also include, an honorable mention after watching one of your reviews, and also Gamers Nexus, and a couple of others: Silverstone Primera 01 RGB w/tempered/tinted glass side panel. Comes with 4 140mm fans (3 front, 1 exhaust, I've added the silverstone RGB fan grill on the exhaust fan), also added 2 be-quiet! "pure wings 2" on the top interior, 140 mm as well, blowing cool air down on the cpu, ram, and motherboard. My Ryzen 7 2700x is set to 4.1ghz in bios, and I maintain a thermal temp of 43c on average, and just 55-58c on load! Silverstone's thermal mesh performance is what sold me on this case, and I couldn't be happier...

honorable mentions might be the Corsair 900d when it came out in 2013 (?). big case with room for massive watercooling options, and also great space up front for hdd and ssd storage. built my first gaming pc in 2014 in a corsair 750d, its a bit smaller but was extremely roomy and gave me lot of space for trial and error. today its used for my own tiny home-server, for sharing files and backing things up.

[@ShaneMcGrath.]

That Phanteks P600S is so good to see from all the ridiculous glass cases blocking airflow we see from most companies. Finally a case back to basics, Front airflow, Top airflow, Plenty of 3.5 hdd bays,Gen 3.1 USB, USB ports on front of case where you can reach them instead of stupidly placing them on the top. This could be the one at last, A pc case of all things was holding me back from a new build.

Also shout out to the Aerocool 500g RGB: the only case I could find with a tempered glass side panel and two external DVD drive slots also like my Corsair Obsidian 750D mainly because the case is huge and will fit anything you have (plus it's heavy and no one is going to try to steal it)

It's march 2020 outside the window and you know what? Lian Li LANCOOL II available in a lot of stores and I ordered one on amazon a few minutes ago. And by the way, thanks for this really cool video!

Very informative, thanks 👍

I purchased a p600s back in September and I can confirm it is truly an amazing case. It was a nice step up from my old evolve matx tg. This was a good list.

[@HiCZoK]

what color ? :) I am planning to get 600s in place of old define c

[@milesbarrineau1584]

@@HiCZoK I got mine in white, however I took the sound panels off so it has a nice black and white theme going. For me it was a toss up with the black and white but I am glad that I went the white route. I think I would have love the black one too though.

[@HiCZoK]

@@milesbarrineau1584 white is nice but I am eyeying the silver version myself. Also plan on taking off the panels. How are included fans?

[@milesbarrineau1584]

@@HiCZoK the silver looked nice too, it just wouldn't have worked in my setup. The included fans are meh, it's the same fans they ship with all of their cases as far as I can tell. I replaced them all with rgb fans. I have three in the front top and one in the back. Also the rad support is amazing.

Been watching your case review since you were using that one Hardware Canucks music. Can't believe it's been 9 years.

[@TigerTT]

I'm using a 2014 Thermaltake V71 and I love it! It has 3 200mm fans, with 3 dust filters and a tempered side panel. The case has 8 HDD bays that I'll most likely never be able to fully utilize but they are very nice to have. I needed a massive case at the time when I bought this just to fit a Sapphire AMD R9 390,which is about a foot long and now its housing a GTX 1080 that draws far less power.

[@WabbitCrouton]

Still using the white edition Corsair 600T here. The front I/O fan controller is busted, the power button needs to be pushed with confidence and the acrylic window creaks when the case cools down. But overall a fine case that is serving almost a decade now.

[@0guitargod]

I actually bought the lancool ii just now in 2020. It's very nice. Super easy to build in as a first time builder.

[@undisclosedperson3871]

Still have a thermaltake level 10. Phenomenal case to build in. Only just now about to replace it now that I can fit everything from it into an ITX case.

[@Obi_4xe]

I still call shennanigans on the case of the year for 2017. Where the Fractal Design R6 wasn't even available to customers until January 2018.

[@Oderius]

I watched every review until I bought the Enthoo Pro four years ago, a really nice case that is waiting for my next build. Thank you, Dmitry, and HardwareCanucks, for making such a good content.

[@qers]

Hadron Hydro is one I really missed in this lineup. The insane ITX watercooled builds that were done in that case were, well, insane.
