Im going to buy a DeepCool Tesseract SW, and for the first time my case its gonna hace a side windows, Im happy.

I enjoy being able to see my nice cable management, and you can fairly cheaply replace it if it's gets scratched and damaged, not to mention it being pretty cheap to etch custom designs into.

Glass is nice, but MUCH more expensive.

>What's the point of windowed side panels?

They look cool to people under the age of 20 and life-long manchildren

Window panels are only acceptable if you have a nicely done custom cooling loop and perfect cable managment going. Although in most cases unnecessary, it'll look good enough to 'show it off' and you will hopefully catch wind of any leaks that might occur quicker.

In any other scenario it doesn't look like anything special. Most of the time, in fact, it looks bad and by extension makes you look bad as well for being a manchild with bad terrible taste who has a fucking toy next to his desk.

>not having glass side panel


pleb

>This retarded

Did you just edit your web page to say that?

I can't find that case literally anywhere in the USA, the only version is the Acrylic.

And the Tempered glass cases they do have listed on their site range from $180-250+

I don't get that dude's screenshot either, the cheapest tempered glass 400c form corsair is expensive as shit.

The Acrylic version has been removed since they added the tempered glass one so I screen shot my last order

>not having your case open with a fan standing next to it

see

Well according to Phanteks, they dont make a tempered glass version of that case, the Acrylic version costs $90 and that's all that's available.

The cheapest tempered glass case directly from them is $180+

Well PCCG clearly sell it.

Maybe Phantek just haven't updated their site?

Well it's not available from litearlly any of the north american Phanteks authorized resellers.

Like I said, all that exists here is the acrylic version.

maybe it's region specific, but from what I can tell it doesn't exist outside of that PCCG listing.

Like 10 seconds in they said they are releasing a Glass version ("Its going to be $10 more")

I dont see how that changes anything, its a product that can't be purchased?

Wooo i'm so glad it's cheap?

They appeal to people who think this car looks cool.

I loved them when I was in my mid/late teens, wanting to show of my 1337 volt modded system at LANs.

These days I find it tacky as fuck.. Doesn't matter if the system inside is beast as fuck, just looks childish.

Same thing applies to lights but 1000x over.

These days I still do hard volt mods and use custom cooling but I don't show it off like a dick.

>its a product that can't be purchased?

I can literally buy one now.

You live in a country no one cares about, just stop trying.

This entire site is ~55% north american, ~30% european.

From what I can tell that product isn't available in the US or Europe meaning almost everyone on this entire website doesn't give a flying fuck if you can buy it.

>works on my machine
thanks for your input

>You live in a country no one cares about, just stop trying.

>Totally relevant

Stop spreading bullshit memes

you said something that was wrong

and I just provided proof, don't get salty that you got btfo

It can't be purchased by the vast majority of the people who will read this information.

literally 90% of people who read this will not be able to purchase that case even if they wanted to.

Shut the fuck up you retarded aussie prick, maybe it's felon's blood coming out, but you sure are fucking stupid.

>These tears

So salty about being incorrect

How's he incorrect, if he himself can't by the tempered case in his country at that price, it is more expensive.

I'm not that user, but your entire first post () was calling him retarded as if he could go out and purchase that right now and he's stupid for thinking otherwise.

But as has already been shown, that case is basically impossible to find at the moment and is a terrible example of a cheap tempered glass case since you can't buy it outside of Oceania.

>How's he incorrect,
How's he incorrect?**

>Being this retarded

Don't breed

i'm able to purchase it if i wanted to.

You just look like a retard to be honest mate, you came in here calling him retarded for not knowing about a case that isn't sold in almost any country besides your own...

you sure showed him

Did I say you couldn't? I said literally 90% of the people reading this cant. That would be 9 out of 10, and since the vast majority of people here aren't replying they're just lurking, you're simply one of the 10.

The fact is the vast majority of Sup Forums doesnt care about flashy shit. As ive seen most are all about efficiency. who in the right mind would buy a $100+ case for a $300-500 pc..

>who in the right mind would buy a $100+ case for a $300-500 pc.
Someone who values silence more than performance.

That's not the argument though, the point is that case isn't available in most countries, that case shouldn't be used as an example of a cheap tempered glass case unless you can actually purchase it globally.

The tempered glass cases that ARE available around the world readily are $180+ generally.

What's the point of Windows again? Hurrduurr let's build a structurally rigid house but leave a massive failure point. I bet you Fort Knox doesn't have windows.

Then you dont cheap out.

Why do you remind me of a crying baby who got his candy taken away?

Those windows get swirly scratches and look like shit, over time, you turd.

Man if only there was a product that contain micro abrasives that smooths out services.

Wtf? you shouldn't have to waste time buffing out your fucking side panel, is this a computer or a car?

>i have to wipe after I shit?
>wtf I hate buttholes now

Spot the 16 year old: the post

MOMMY WIPE MY ASS PLEASE IM ON A KILLSTREAK

>Then you dont cheap out.
What if I only need silence, but not "performance"?
I make a living using an AMD FX-6300 and it's more than adequate.

Vishera is based as fuck, i've got the 1st gen i5 and i'm building an 8350 rig, it's too worth it.

Lol you're retarded. Vishera is shit, the feature set was two years old when it launched, in 2016 it's ancient.

This isn't even getting into the shit IPC or power draw and other complaints.

Well i've got the 990fx board, 16gig kit, the chip, and a TX3 cooler, all I need is a case and PSU, it'll still be a beast for me no matter how shit it is.

This might be true for childish video games and proprietary botnet software

Well the i5-650 (first gen i5) has better single core performance than the FX-8350. So in any single threaded application you wont notice any difference by "upgrading" to the FX-8350.

The only situation the FX-8350 wins is when an application is using more than 2-4 threads because the i5 is a dual core with 4 threads.

Anything that uses 1-2 threads will actually run better on the i5.

I don't know user, GTAV can even utilize an 8350.

GTA5 is one of the most well threaded games from the past few years, that shouldnt be a surprise.

Most desktop applications however are not well threaded, and older games.

Even still man, that's a sweet chip, and it costs less than a used 2600k for a new boxed one.

>better single core performance
*** in proprietary freedom-hating """benchmarks""" and """video games"""

1. its not a car retard
2. its personal preference

i like how it looks glowing in the corner of my room at night and also has a function of letting me see inside to make sure fans are spinning and shit if i need to check

>a function of letting me see inside to make sure fans are spinning and shit if i need to check
>What is speedfan

Because it's my shit and i do whatever I want you fucking neet you sound like someone who can't afford a windowed case so you resort to shitpost here trying to convince yourself to feel better so kys fag.

Why do only gamers have LEDs and acrylic windows in their cases?
What is it that makes gamers do this?

Its got the most advanced hardware encode/decode for 10bit HEVC for muh 10bit animues.

Fuck you faggot

Wow I'm blind af I've seen that picture a couple of times now and never realized than that logo was in there.

Oh, so you're a social retard animefag? Got it

My Corsair Obsidian 750D with the clear side panel was $10 less than the one without it. That's the only reason I have a side window.

Yeah my cell phone camera doesnt do it justice, in person it's clearly visible though.

>See 300R case on Memeazon
>Windowed version $10 more for a side panel with metal cut out of it resulting in a flimsier panel.
Why? It doesn't even look good because they left in the stupid holes for mounting a side fan instead of having it clean.
