I remember when the parts took up the whole space in the case. Now I see people with aquarium sized cases, but the computer is just this tiny little square in the corner taking up 1/1000th of the space in the case.
When i was young and build my first pc’s i would always use just whatever cases i got from my friend who worked in IT. It was mainly these beighe/white hige ass server towers. So seeing these builds makes me kind of nostalgic. Some 15 years ago i was obsessed with building the smallest most powerful pc’s i could. There was often no room for anything and it was quite satisfying. Now i don’t even know anymore. I think i build a fishtank again.
Computers these days generate a lot more heat, so when you build them too tight you get thermal throttling and other issues. And lets not forget how video cards keep getting bigger and bigger, like we’re heading back to room-sized mainframe days.
