Chassis shape, material.
Appearance and materials are the most basic attributes of a chassis, and the appearance directly determines whether a chassis can be recognized by users as the primary condition, so the current appearance has gradually tended to develop in the direction of diversification, so it also occupies part of the proportion of our testing. The materials used mainly depend on the materials used in the chassis, whether the corners of the chassis are curled or not, and the quality of the materials also directly affects the ability to resist electromagnetic radiation.
Featured features, etc.
See if the chassis provides front-facing USB, audio input and output interfaces and other functions, and at the same time, in terms of internal design, such as the rail settings used by hard disks and optical drives, or the tool-free settings of the board, you will feel its ease of use.
Strong heat dissipation. For computers that generate increasing heat, we can no longer ignore the cooling performance of the case, adding more fans seems to be the mainstream of DIY, and the most important thing is to consider the number of cooling fans provided or the location of the cooling fans and the number of cooling holes.
Strong dust resistance. For most users, dust resistance is probably the least considered, but to prepare the case to be clean for a long time, it depends on whether it is dustproof. We focused on the dust protection of the heat vents, as well as the dust protection of the PCI baffle of the expansion slot.
Scalability.
The future development of the computer is always difficult to figure out, the more fully prepared the chassis, of course, the more it can adapt to the needs of the future, we will focus on checking how much 525-inch optical drive positioning and 35-inch floppy drive positioning, hard disk positioning distribution and design.
