Never get cheap cases. My t28 on switch keep getting stuck and the wire management was really bad, have to take apart whole case to properly assemble it

Exactly why I invested in the SilverStone FT02 case. Damn solid piece of aluminium construction. Never looked back. I'll definitely re-use this case in my next rig. :s12:

Casing is recommendable to buy a good decent ones over cheap ones. It goes a long way. Casing is not something that will DOA easily nor does it gets any problem.

Cheap casing cons are

- Lesser alloy being used
- More plastic
- Lesser wire management area
- Tends to flex easily
- Side panel will go unaligned when user keeps opening and closing the side panel
- Lesser functions such as, no hot swap HDD cage, unremovable HDD cage, unable to move HDD cage around
- More screws needed for HDD mounting and DVD Drive mounting
- Poor paint job

If budget is not a concern or decent enough things that can be allocated budget for would be:

PSU, Casing & (GPU (in terms of gaming needs and demands))

The rest you wanna skimp will depends on how you want your pc to perform.

My NZXT M59 stll going strong after 3 years .I bought it at 59 bucks only.
I think cheap and good casing still exists but much harder to find.
