Mini-ATX casing on table or full tower casing underneath table?

[taquito]

Was planning to get a new PC but torn between mini-atx or full tower casing.. What are the pros or cons of placing on table or place underneath beside your feet? Not a aesthetics person so no need to admire my casing.. Anyone with such experience? Thanks!

Me too.

If you want to see those nice RGB lighting and have easy cable access then put the PC on the table otherwise put the PC below the table. Just make sure the table is large and strong enough to carry the weight of the full tower if you want it on the table.

Full tower is spacious and allows you to have better layout of things like water cooling pump and piping, more fans, have better ventilation and future upgrading. Also, can use ATX/EATX mobo and more powerful ATX PSU.

I use Full ATX Cube Casing.
Cooler Master HAF XB EVO.
I put it on a mini side table.
I get full leg space and full ATX Test Bench Casing.

both expel same amount of heats... if u got small table or height adjustable one go with mini-itx...got big table no diff... esthetic wise mini-itx also can lay RGB inside...

put on table will accumulate less dust.

put on floor level will have more dust.
