For those unfamiliar, this is the NVIDIA edition CM-830 Stacker from Cooler Master.

    There is no pc case that an angle grinder and some basic tools can’t fix. Im doing custom watercooling in a mid tower from 2010 because fuck the rules. My next build will be in a beige AT because why not.

    I don’t know, I think it needs more fans. Can you get another wall of four on the other side? And maybe inside you can retrofit 3-4 on the top and bottom of the case.

      I hate how they plaster the brand names and logos on it though. Really ruins it for me.

      Sure, tuck it away somewhere in the corner if you must but front and centre? No thanks.

      I have a pet peeve against branding though, try to not even wear clothing with logos and shit.

        I generally agree, but I think this is meant to be a sort of special edition of the case, which would make it kind of cool in it’s own right

    As long as you can fit everything in where it needs to go, I’d say just about any case works. Even this one.

    Unfortunately all of those drive bays will go to waste if you’re using modern NVMe drives. You’ll also miss modern USB ports on the front. Otherwise it looks like a fine case.

      Driver caddies, although there will be a loss of access speed, or HDDs on RAID, for backup.

    Yes absolutely it’s upto personal preference really, you may have to do some modifications to the case to get it to fit with some bigger modern gpus such as cutting out the drive cage with prehaps a dremel
