Best PC cases 2017: top cases for your desktop computer

When you’re planning on building a computer, trying to find one of the best PC cases is probably the last thing that you’re thinking of. So, it’s tempting to just settle for a desktop chassis that’s cheap and flimsy instead. Unfortunately, though, when that chassis inevitably shatters, moving all of your myriad PC parts over to a new case is the stuff that nightmares are made of.

That’s why, before you do literally anything else, you should start with one of the best PC cases available right now. And, luckily, we here at TechRadar have taken the liberty of finding the best PC cases for you. That’s right, whether you plan on using your new PC to play games, watch movies, make art or just write like us, we’ve sorted through every computer case we could get our hands on to bring you only the very best.

We know that you’re thinking that all of this is some kind of elaborate ruse, you can feel it in your gut Don’t confuse hunger for suspicion, however, as we’ve found you 8 different PC cases – each in unique categories – that present an assortment of convincing reasons for why they should be the one to house your precious computer. What’s better, these cases won’t hurt your wallet either, as they value affordability just as much as function.

If you have a suspicion that our list may be obsolete for including this familiar-looking chassis, we don’t blame you for your misgivings. The Cooler Master Cosmos II 25th Anniversary Edition was designed to imitate the 2012 case of its namesake to – of course– celebrate its 25th Anniversary. The 2017 edition streamlines HDD installations with its trademark X-Dock, and its tempered glass side panel looks gorgeous while illuminated by its blue LEDs.  

Seeing any other PC case that has even a close resemblance to Fractal Design’s Meshify-C is unlikely at the very least. Given that the entire front of the case is composed of mesh material divided up into many polygonal shapes, the Meshify-C has quite the style, and it does so without conceding on function. With two fans pre-installed, interior cooling is (forgive us) a breeze, even if the Meshify-C is held back by a number of obstacles. 

As its title asserts, the Nanoxia Deep Silence 4 was created with the sole purpose of being quiet as a pin drop. This silence-focused chassis is a well-rounded Micro ATX case that’s reasonably priced and even accommodates some of the biggest, most powerful graphics cards with its cavernous interior. The fact that you’ll seldom hear it rise above 30 decibels is just icing on the very reticent cake. 

Micro ATX may have been here longer, but Mini-ITX tech is getting to the point where it’s finally competitive for PC power users and gamers alike. The problem that Mini ITX shells still need to overcome, though, is the restraints they inevitably place on cooling and power solutions. Fortunately, the NZXT Manta was tailored for your beefier components as well as tiny motherboards. The nearly full-size design may put some people off, but we find that it’s more than acceptable for this bubble-shaped titan of a case.  

When you first look at it, the Phanteks Evolv Shift X appears more like a sound bar than a PC case, but this helps it vanish into any living area or studio setup. It’s flexible to the point that it looks natural placed under a TV just as it does atop a desk, next to an equally high-end monitor. It may only be compatible with Mini-ITX mobos, which seems crazy given its size but the Phanteks Evolv Shift X offers tons of space for components and liquid-cooled loops. If this case is a little too large for your preference, there’s also the more manageable and smaller Phanteks Evolv Shift.  

Our second entry from Fractal Design, the Define R5 is yet another mid-tower chassis bearing lush aesthetics. The metallic and blue LED-lit front of the case is simple, yet elegant, and is complemented by noise dampening materials throughout its interior. Despite the removable ModuVent panels and drive trays not being tool-lessly accessible, the Fractal Design Define R5 is otherwise painless to build a computer inside of. Not only that, but it’s not as pricey as you might expect from a PC case with such a pretentious name either.

When you’re trying to keep the cost of your build down, we advise not going for the absolute cheapest PC case around. For the most part, cost cutting cases are lacking in proper ventilation and airflow, not to mention you’ll wind up buying your own fans and cable management supplies. The Corsair Carbide Spec-04, on the other hand, shows up even some of the more extravagant cases. It does so with rubberized feet, a bundled LED fan and plenty of room to spare for additional fans and components. 

This one is for our Razer fans out there. While the green snake-embellished company doesn’t make its own PCs, it has partnered with a few OEMs in the past to add its signature green-infused flare to a handful of desktop PC cases. This includes the Atec Cube, a small form factor case that tailors to Mini-ITX motherboards and is shaped like an italic font (if it was reversed). Complete with lots of headroom, either for an initial build or later expansion, the Antec Cube is simultaneously compact enough to be taken anywhere.
