Computer cases come in all shapes and sizes, from micro-ATX to the massive E-ATX. So as well as getting a case that looks incredible, it’s important to buy one that is the right size for your motherboard.
Here are the best PC cases with RGB lighting available today.
Q: Do PC Cases Have RGB?
As the PC gaming industry has grown, it has become increasingly common for PC case manufacturers to add RGB lights to their computer cases. Although not all cases come with RGB lights or fans pre-built, you can add some yourself.
The LIAN LI PC-O11 Dynamic Razer Edition is perfect if you plan to use water cooling to keep your gaming rig cool as it comes with enough room for up to three radiators up to 360mm. This offers the best cooling possible, making it ideal for even the most powerful gaming build.
Match the RGB lighting on your LIAN LI PC-O11 Dynamic Razer Edition with the rest of your Razer products using Razer Synapse 3. It allows you to choose from multiple lighting profiles or separate unique lighting profiles for your RGB computer case.
The HYTE Y60’s antechamber design means all your cables can be tidied and tucked away out of site. This doesn’t obstruct airflow, keeping your PC looking stunning while remaining cool.
Included, there’s a PCIe 4.0 riser so you can vertically align your graphics card. And, despite being made from tempered glass, the HYTE Y60 isn’t too heavy to move if you need to relocate it, unlike the Thermaltake Level 20 MT.
Inside, there are six drive bays for your HDD or SSDs, a built-in PSU cover, and support for Mini ITX, Micro ATX, and ATX motherboards. But aside from all of this, you’re getting an affordable case that’s durable, stylish, and shows off your RGBs. The only thing that really lets the Thermaltake Level 20 MT down is its size and weight.
Moving this beast will likely need two people since it weighs over 14 pounds. Add your PC components to that, and it will be heavier than a small child. Still, once it’s in place, you’ll be hard pushed to find a tougher case at this price point.
When it comes to building a gaming computer with incredible airflow, solid cable management is key to great performance; this is where the Corsair iCUE 4000X excels. The Corsair RapidRoute cable management system routes most cables through a single channel around the back of the case, offering cable premium cable management and optimal airflow.
Shifting the focus to RGB lighting software, you don’t get much better than Corsair’s iCUE software, designed to work hand-in-hand with your other Razer products. This allows you to sync up all of your devices, including your Corsair RAM, or make separate lighting profiles for each of your components and accessories.
Built with SGCC Steel and tempered glass, the NZXT H710i isn’t just a stylish RGB computer case, it is a solid one too, with great air filtration to ensure the case remains cool while extending both the life of your computer case and components inside it.
For those who want to really show off their hardware, the NZXT H710i features a vertical GPU mount, letting you make your GPU the showstopper of your new gaming computer.
To access the inside of the Fractal Design Torrent, there’s a tab you’ll need to pull in the top right-hand corner, but it’s easy to find and pops off easily. On top of the case, all your quick-access ports are available, including a 3.5mm jack, two USB 3.0 ports, and a USB-C port. Although this is pretty standard across most PC cases, it’s worth mentioning as some premium cases tend to forget the essentials.
The Fractal Design Torrent is ideal for e-ATX motherboards, with clearance for a GPU up to 413mm long. There’s plenty of space for cooling, including large liquid coolers and fans. And although there’s ample room for cables, powering the RGBs is where things get tricky.
Q: Is PC Case Important for Gaming?
The design of your PC computer case plays an important part in your computer’s performance, a good computer case with great cooling will allow your components to work harder without overheating, in some cases even making extreme overclocking possible for even better performance.
Q: What Size PC Case Do I Need?
This depends on your motherboard, if you’re not sure, you can check the manual or the manufacturer’s website. ATX is the most common size, you can use a case for your motherboard’s size or bigger, but you can not use a case designed for a smaller motherboard.
