Case recommendations? Mid/full. Looking for something easy to get in and lift.
I feel like a case can really make or break a build. Or at least your enjoyment of it. My specs are below, but I sort of picked a case at random. I'm looking for suggestions.
My current build has served me since 2010 and it's time to upgrade the CPU, Motherboard, and case. Everything that can be replaced easily has been and it's really showing it's age. I mention this because it's likely the case I pick will be used for the next ten years of my life!
Stuff I care about
Ease of opening for cleaning/assembling. Part of why I don't clean my current on as much as I should is how annoying it is to open.
Ease of moving. I'm more interested in handles than weight, but I still don't want something stupidly heavy.
Size. I'd prefer something a little too big rather than something a little too small. I don't necessarily want a full tower though. As long as I can get in easily and there is some extra room for the next GPU I'll inevitably buy in the next 10 years I'm good.
Stuff I don't care about
Water cooling. I have zero interest in getting custom water cooling. Too much effort for me.
Looks. I don't really want some crazy RBG thing, but I also don't specifically need some super minimalist thing either.
Price. So, obviously I don't want to waste money, but if I need to splurge a little I'm willing to. Within reason.
You definitely want a mid size case if you're going to move it around. I got a full size with my first build and while it is nice and roomy, it's never fun to move when needed.
The case you have in your list has your 2.5" SSD storage in the back and PSU under an aluminum bar at the bottom. Everything else will mostly likely be easily accessible, but if you ever need to do PSU/SSD changes, it won't be as easy as everything else.
Otherwise, I really like Corsair cases, they've never done me wrong.
