Hey, thanks for the suggestion! I’ve never looked at Silverstone, but most of their designs are not half bad.
Also, having the side panel off is the coolest thing you could have in a case. Reminds me of my childhood when my much older brother and my much much older father, both of whom were computer engineers at the time, were constantly tinkering with the home computer so the side panel was always off :D
That’s kinda the point, I can’t really have any aesthetic I want. Unless I CNC my own case, I’m limited to what case manufacturers sell, which, in my opinion, is mostly bland boxes. or even worse, some sort of an LED aquarium that the components have to live in.
The thing is I’m not really set on any performance target yet. It might seem like I want to have my cake and eat it too, and I probably do, but I just want to know that I could put whatever I want into the case and not be limited by some proprietary standard.
