Question All Cases Suck?

[DefinitelyNotTom]

So I guess all cases suck? Doing research it looks like you flat out must have either noise or bad temps, no way around it.

And here I spent a lot on the r6, with all those rave reviews about how oh it's so quiet and it's good enough temps.... Yeah, those are different people saying those things as it doesn't have both at the same time, the more I research it.

Basically you have to either take the front panel off and have it be a loud case or if you leave it on the testing on gamersnexus shows over a TEN DEGREE increase in cpu temps and I think like an 8 degree increase in gpu temps.

So what do I do now? This is the last day I can decide whether to return it or not (haven't opened it yet). I had decided on a fractal design regardless, only to find out every one of them has issues either with temps or noise.

And no I am not going to spend hundreds for "better fans" when I am already out over $2k on a pc I budgeted $1200 for.

im satisfied with my cooler master haf xb evo with my 9700k and rtx2060 quiet and temps are good.

Spent a whole $55 on my Corsair 100R....

Would do so again!

well so much for this decision. I reluctantly refrained from returning the r6. I just like nice, compact, lightweight cases as it adds flexibility.... so I hated to keep this one. But in the end spending so much on a build I hated to then not have a front usb type c and a 5.25 drive and the define c isn't much more compact, anyway, although much lighter.

What I WANTED was a nano s or mini c, but I ended up deciding against it, due to even higher temps those would have and plus I didn't like the compact x570 mobos so already bought the meg ace. That's another decision I would have rather not made, but the gigabyte master wasn't at a low enough price. meg ace was $20 off and $50 rebate.
