What Makes a PC Case, Great?! | 10 Gaming PC Cases Worth Considering in 2024!

[@Mr_Matt_Lee]

What's your current PC Case? If you could choose absolutely any, which would it be? Let's chat!

[@saadmansakib9417]

NZXT H5 Flow

[@muhammaderlangga7493]

montech all the way sir

[@skimnerf]

Cougar MX600 RGB. Very good value for money case

[@tantanmunggaran3224]

I'm using Corsair 2500X. Best look for mATX form factor, especially for custom watercooling.

Deepcool CH370

That shot for the scythe at 18:24 *chef’s kiss

Without a doubt one of the best shots I've captured over the last year. Fun fact, it took around 4 hours to set up and film that haha

[@aeronybrek4696]

[@SecondBrekfast]

I did my first ever PC build last year in the Fractal Pop Air Mini and have absolutely loved it. Small enough, sleek design and supports some massive GPUs.

[@AAkCN1]

followed the advice and kicked back with a coffee. Was not disappointed. What stunning videos. Thank you Sir.

[@tykoru]

The H6 flow for anyone wondering is a masterpiece. The RGB White is gorgeous and it keeps my 6700xt super chilly! Love the content as always:)

[@dboosttoast]

I too love the h6 flow with my 6700xt lmao

[@Solarallergie]

but sadly, it's only downside, it can't take thicker radiators.

I absolutely loved this video. The subtle music changing with each build, calm clear narration, and excellent editing made this a joy to watch. It also provided some additional points of view for my own in-progress build. Well done man.

[@BowdenDynasty]

Use to always be a sucker for the Corsair dominator ram sticks but seeing those Kingston fury ram sticks in so many of Matt’s builds I think they’re my new favorite.

[@FanaPants]

I am rocking the Fractal Torrent - with my good old 980Ti in it. I really need an upgrade to the insides not the outside I love the Torrent. Thanks again Mr. Matt Lee really appreciate your videos

[@freekvanemaus]

I just found your channel recently and the shots are absolutely sublime, I really like your take on doing this! This is very inspiring for me and I'm now considering a small form factor build for my next one. Something that I had discarded completely before.

[@zood]

I knew I had to build in the o11 vision chrome after seeing your original vid. So that's what I did. Love it

[@richardquintana3769]

Your videos are fire bro, excellent audio, video and style. Great work

[@TomHenksYT]

I think what makes a case great is when it manages to combine aesthetics and function. And by function I mean two things: does it offer good (potential for) airflow, and how easy is it to disassemble/reassemble the case and to access all the components? I've built a lot of PCs in lots of different cases, but my favorite to build in so far is my Thermaltake CTE C750 Air, although it's a huge case and the smaller CTE 700 Air would have also sufficed for me. But what makes this case great is how easy it is to take apart. All the exterior panels can easily be removed without tools in just a few seconds, yet they feel robust and they also provide good airflow. There is ample space on the back side behind the motherboard for cables, as well as pre-installed velcro straps for easy cable management. But I also really enjoyed building in the Lian Li Lancool 216, especially the removable fan/radiator tray at the top is a nice feature I'd like to see on more cases, and cable management was also a breeze in this one.

[@trdartz]

Not having a PC for 15 plus years . I’m seriously looking into using the NZXT H7 flow 2024 for the airflow to build my first PC. These videos are a great inspiration .

[@uwhat1]

Another first-class video good luck with your excellent channel. I tend to use my own custom-made cases in my equipment unit.

[@RoyalTeaLegion]

Fantastic job on making this very enjoyable experience! 🔥👏🔥

[@Mr_Matt_Lee]

Thanks so much

[@DannyNakho]

Keep doing that! It's awesome, useful and beautiful!

[@Mindseas]

The visuals are out of this world in this video, and I love the attention to detail in also taking your time to discuss each case. Pacing matters. Commentary maybe a bit light on the downsides, not to mention the omission of any real discussion of cooling capability - I suspect because you don't have the time and/or facility, or interest, to do that sort of testing, but I can find that elsewhere for the most part. The Fractal North XL is aparrently very good as well, and offers even more room for activities. Only major downside seems to be the price, and - similarly to the non-XL version, the way the panels are held down being a bit touch and go. Mostly no touch being the way to go. Would've loved more details on custom liquid cooling for each case, but maybe that's another video? :) Thank you for this, just found your channel while looking for case options. Looking forward to seeing more of what you do! Oh, since you included the Asus Proart case, I'm curious if you're familiar the XIKII Industry FF04 Proart? I feel like you might appreciate it for what it is. Cheers!

@@Mr_Matt_Lee it’s probably utopian 😅 but I really really hope that you also got a pc like mine and test the glorious airflow: a inverted Lian Li O11D EVO case with an Upright Noctua-GPU and all-Noctua 12-fans (cpu fans included). fan configuration: at the top: out-in-out behind the gpu: all out below: all-in a 5080/90 FE would be just perfect in it (I tried to get a 5080 FE but wasn’t lucky enough I guess…) 😓 I know it’s super rare but I love it and I loved every second to build it ♥️ Thank you for reading.

[@NorseWeiss]

Well i got myself a Fractal Design Meshify 2 XL...some say the case is old but i hope i choosen the right one. Plans are to be modern, sleek and blackout with good airflow. Always wished for a good pc but never really had the inspiration or will to just dive into it. Finding your channel was like a spark into a new dimension of quality builds and made me just say lets do it. Thank you for your airflow visualizations, the build quality and the awesome cinematic shots. Definetly subbed.

[@FerbyArisaka]

These days, there are so many awesome PC cases with great airflow and cool tempered glass side panels. But I’m still sticking with my trusty old Cooler Master Cosmos II, It still has amazing airflow, especially after I modded it with some Noctua fans 😉

[@fanglespangle110]

what... the... fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck?! I genuinely haven't bought a new PC case for myself in 10+ years. I've decided my old i7 4770 is kinda at it's limit to what I can do with it so started to look around at PC bits. Came across the ASRock sonic motherboard and thought it would be really cool, but my case is an ugly (but functional) brick so the aesthetic would be completely lost. So I figured "ah why not? I can treat myself to a new shiney case" What the fuck?! Cases are crazy now! So much choice and variety. Big cases, small cases, TINY TINY CASES, grills, fish tanks, light shows and god knows what! Feels like the weird old lego cases people used to build just turned professional. Also, great video! Really good shots and I love the visualization of air flow. Really nice. Thank you!

[@arms-h8n]

good things come to those who can wait - perfect line.

[@NorthWolfe]

ProArt PA602 will probably be my next build, you did present three more options I will consider since I build about six to eight PCs every year. For me, it is functionality above all other considerations, I reserve good looks for my cars. Since I also hate RGB... I will also be buying everything DeepCool I can get my hands on. Thanks for your fabulous attention to detail, your fabulous work and presentation, Cheers.

Mine is the AZZA Cast 808 white version. I love it.

[@buriedbits6027]

I just discovered your channel and really enjoy your videos! As a new PC user, I find them very helpful. I have a bit of feedback that I hope you find useful. When you introduce a new case, I see that you often move to a shot of the case along with the hardware-motherboard, GPU, RAM, etc.-that you’ll be installing. This build process is really handy to watch. However, it would be even more helpful if you could also include information on the types or sizes of motherboards that fit the case, the compatible power supply standards, and the maximum length or height of the GPU that the case can accommodate. If possible, displaying this information as text in the video would be fantastic, as it would assist viewers like me in understanding the case’s compatibility. Your videos are very professional, and the cases look beautiful. I’m impressed by the quality of your content, including the background music and the smoke effects. The cases look far better in your videos than they do on sites like Amazon, where they often look less appealing. I feel like buying all of them. Keep up the great work! I’ve always had an interest in unique PC cases, some of which you’ve featured in your videos. As I’ve watched more of your content, I’ve noticed that the cases you showcase often look far better in your videos than they do on various websites. I particularly enjoy how you present the hardware, showing the components as you walk away. For viewers like me, who are relatively new to PCs, it would be incredibly helpful if you could list the types of motherboards that fit into each case or highlight the supported motherboard specs on the screen. This way, we can better understand what hardware is compatible with the cases you feature. Thank you for your informative videos and for considering this feedback! y open hardware anymore and I think it’s gonna come to BYTE windows 11 although it’s, not nearly as pretty as windows as windows is still windows very good operating system and it’s got a lot

[@ribeirinhu]

its awesome to see you grow bro

[@bluenayanika]

The Fractal North will always be my personal favorite, with the Asus ProArt PA602 coming in a close second.

[@bsv01]

It's a great review of all these cases! And I fully agree that you need to experiment with your builds. I started my build several years ago like non-RGB one. Then, add rgb fans and stripes) In case there was no room from the tower cooler, so I switched to aio). More room needs great custom cabels, so i add them. Then, I set up graphics cards vertically with custom 3d print brackets. Now I am back with sognificant less rgb and normal graphics card position. And yes, it is fun!)

[@aeronybrek4696]

Been loving the concept of the Phanteks nv5 ever since its launch. It was only a couple of months ago when it hit our local shops here and I’ve been saving up to put my current pc into the nv5 next. Oh and Phanteks’ swiveling vertical gpu mount is a gem too 👀

[@zenwheat]

I have a Fractal Torrent and utilize an air cooled CPU. This PC is for gaming only and its blacked out. I have three 140mm fans mounted in the bottom which are controlled by GPU temps. I have two, front-mounted, 180mm fans with the top one based on CPU temp and bottom on based on system temps. 13900k/4090. I love it for how easy it is to build in and how fantastic its quality is. I also have an APNX C1 for my daily and productivity PC. I wanted it to have a cool asthetic so I am cooling it with an EKWB 360mm AiO top-mounted and have RGB fans and RAM all displaying a dim orange color that gives the entire PC a copper sheen to it. 12900k/4070Ti. I like the size and asthetics of this case but it wasn't as quality of a build as the fractal cases I've worked in (I think APNX is connected to Fractal Design somehow so I had unrealisticly high expectations of APNX)

[@oem-mkii3041]

Thank you Mat. I always enyoing your content!

Current: Cooler Master Storm Trooper from 2014. Desire: BeQuiet! Dark Base Pro 900 What I like about mine: 2010's aesthetics, kinda attached as it's the first case I bought with my own money. Worked hard to get it. Managed to love it still, made some mods to fit dual 360 radiators. What I like about the BeQuiet: design, clean and elegant - not fond of the newer versions of BeQuiet. Offers a ton of customization and mostly fits I wish to fit inside.
