Case

Often overlooked, the case is one of the most important computer parts as it houses and displays all your expensive PC components. Cases come in a range of form factors, from small footprint Mini-ITX cases ideal for HPC setups, to large full towers designed to fit those two water cooling reservoirs that you totally needed. They also come in a range of price points to fit any budget. Like most parts, typically the more money you spend, the better the build quality will be, and the more features you will get.
