November 27, 2009, Newsletter Issue #195: Covering the Bases on Cases
Tip of the Week
There are more options when it comes to computer cases than most people realize. Choosing a case is not as simple as liking the way one looks and buying it. A major factor in choosing a case should be the material it is made from. The thicker and denser the material, the sturdier it will be and less noise it will allow to escape. Steel is a good example of this.
For someone who wants a case that is much lighter weight, aluminum or plastic are common choices. These materials are typically chosen by people who have the need to move their computer around regularly and weight is a paramount concern. A drawback to these lighter and more portable cases is that they are more susceptible to scratches and dents.
The lighter materials tend to be more stylish, something that has become more popular for gaming computers. The ideal situation is to balance style with functionality. It does you no good if your system looks great forever but works for five minutes.
