Question Can I use an old pc case with modern components

[Urppana]

Yea so Basically what I'm looking for is a very old looking case that is something similar to ones used with CRT monitors. Can you also recommend a CRT monitor for me. The Idea of it is to give people the impression ''WTF you brought a crappy old pc into a LAN game meetup'', but in truth they will see me playing witcher 3 with 120fps . Right so It has to appear old but be very new and powerful inside. Im open to Modding a case if given instructions. It has to look preferably PC's from the 90's

Oof, Depends where you live, its kinda hard nowdays to grab CRT monitors. But on used market you "May" find them.

Also to add the 900 series GPU (nvidia) supported the VGA.
But you may use the adapter.

As for old cases you can pick whatever you want since the Pentium 3 days or soo since the standard ATX is standard and every motherboard should fit into case, as far your GPU fitting there might be some clearance issues from the old HDD brackets (Depending from the case).

The best one i recommend is to find with Turbo button They shall not know what it was used for

I don't believe you can use a case with the turbo button without serious modding, because back then the case standard was AT not ATX.

You know that the metal plate which holds the motherboard can be exchanged? Such i did. With slight modification.
