Choosing the right case is fundamental to effective PC cooling. A case with good ventilation options, ample space for components, and support for additional cooling solutions is essential. Look for cases with multiple fan mounting points, support for liquid cooling radiators, and adequate clearance for large GPUs and CPU coolers. Some cases come with built-in features like fan controllers or noise-dampening materials, which can further enhance cooling performance. A well-designed case not only supports better airflow but also simplifies maintenance and upgrades, making it a long-term investment in your PC's health.
