Cooling is the main thing for me. I wouldn't buy a case without probably two 120mm fans at the front and another at the top/back. Looks are not that important but if it look too flashy with a load of LEDs built in it would probably put me off. In reality i probably wouldn't buy a case unless it was just plain black although im not 100% against other colours. I do normally put my own LEDs in things but i just try to get a slight glow rather than light the room up.
I have 3 hard drives 2 in raid 0 and a spare. So 3 drive bays are fine for me. An a single dvd drive.
So cooling is by far the most important thing for me then looks and as i have never seen a case without enough drive bays thats last. Oh and of course price is very important too.What do computer gamers want from a computer case?
'; I am interested in what you want from a case';
Hardcore gamers would want the best cooling possible at the lowest possible noise. Make space for a liquid cooling system or for big, low-rpm fans. Notice that designs like the Mac Pro and the HP Voodoo Blackbird 002 are raised so that there is at least one more vector for ventilation.
Mac Pros (and their predecessors the PowerMacs) had a hinged door to allow for easy motherboard and drive bay management.
Of course, the case should conform to at least the ATX motherboard-size standard.
';how many drive bays you need?';
Standard cases come with at least 4 bays. That's enough even for hardcore gamers. The most gamer-friendly (speed over HD space) RAID settings require at least 3-4 HDs.
As for optical drive bays (DVD, Blu-Ray) most wouldn't go past 2 bays.
';how important is looks over cooling?';
If looks will compromise cooling, then it is not for the hardcore. A good-looking case design sells fast to the uninformed game addict, though. Again refer to the Mac Pro and the Blackbird for lessons on form that's synergistic with function.
1st, LED LIGHTS! :D obviously with a fan controller and LED light controller..to turn off the LED lights when u dont want it on P
2nd, Removable Mobo tray...this would be really convenient for many people
3rd, good cooling [obviously]
4th, a really nice looking case [elegent/cool]
5th, It's nice to have an all black interior
6th, Mid tower - full tower
7th, USB ports and stuff like that on the front
8th, A mobo heatsink backplate hole :D
9th, would be nice to be tooless
Looks are just shy of irrelevant, as long at it's not butt ugly it will do, if I want it to look cool I will build it myself. Just give me room for at least two hard drives, at least two dvd bays and enough clearance to fit a big heat sink. I swap parts out often, so ease of opening is important, too.
cooling is one of the most important factors for hardcore gamers, a lot of gamers like to show off their computer case i want you to go to the http://www.cpu magazine.com website and look at some of the pc mods that people came up with from the past to the present ,give you some good ideas
