+ | ===== Blacklisted cases ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | There are a few cases that are not worth your effort, because they' | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Jonsbo C6 - looks nice on the first and second glance, but is being reported as a nasty hot box, ie. removing the panels results in great temps, but with panels chokes the CPU and also the GPU | ||
+ | * Raijintek Metis - could been a candidate for smaller sized mATX boards, but its being reported as a nasty hot box, too, which will only get better if you heartily add a few more openings | ||
+ | * Raijintek Styx - is nice, but a cut & crop wouldnt help much, compared to eg. the Jonsbo RM2, which is of similar size, but better layout | ||
+ | * numerous cheap 21 - 25ish L cases; those are all nice n dandy, but you cant really modify them enough to be worthwhile, for one, because of their build quality, which is mostly very thin wobbly steel, and also, because the result after cutting would need much more effort to really make it shine. Another topic is their internal structure, because they tend to have the PSU location on top, ie. extremely outdated design, which you'd either have to cut away or fill with a panel of sorts | ||
