Mike (@SirStendec) @stendec.dev · Dec 8 I was talking to a friend about old PC cases today, and it reminded me how much I miss the Corsair Vengeance C70. Just look at this majestic thing. ...okay so it was not that great, but the sides were easy to remove. And it had handles. Handles! Modern cases need handles. Give me handles. Please.

There was a case I had once, don't remember which it was, but it was all steel and HAD to have handles or else you could never pick it up. Thought it was so cool, till I had to move it. Was so heavy.
I don't mourn the passing of the 5 1/4 inch drive bays for more airflow, but I do miss those side panels with holes for air intake options, especially now with vertical GPU mounts Also I wish we moved past 2.54mm dupont-style pin headers for power button etc, what a mess that is while building a PC
I had one of those cases, though in black rather than green. It was great for LAN parties. A big heavy computer is a lot easier to lug around when you've got a convenient place to grip it. My current case I don't even like taking to the porch to dust it outside it's so unwieldy.
