Form factors
The case must match the motherboard size: ATX (standard), mATX (smaller), or ITX (compact). An ATX case accepts smaller boards, but an mATX case cannot take an ATX board.
For most builds, a mid-tower is enough. ITX only makes sense when you genuinely want a compact PC — with higher board cost and harder cooling.
Airflow and cooling
Look for a mesh front panel, not sealed glass, for airflow. A setup with 2–3 intake fans and 1 exhaust keeps the system cool and quiet.
If you plan liquid AIO cooling, check radiator support (240 mm/360 mm) and mounting position in the case specs.
Check clearances before buying
Three numbers decide: maximum GPU length, maximum CPU cooler height, and PSU length. Modern three-fan cards reach 300+ mm — not every case takes them.

Frequently asked questions
Does the case affect performance?
On thermals yes, on fps directly no. A case with good airflow keeps the CPU and GPU boosting longer, so indirectly yes. Do not cheap out on the case in a powerful build.
Which case for a long GPU?
Check the case's max GPU length spec (usually 300–400 mm in modern mid-towers). Three-fan cards need cases with enough horizontal room.
What motherboard size should I get?
For most people: ATX or mATX in a mid-tower. ITX only if you genuinely want compactness and accept the higher board cost.
