Something is wrong with me as I've just received my 4th case a Silverstone Fortress TF-05 despite the fact I already own a Parvum S2.0, Phanteks Evolv White and a Fractal R4 Titanium.

Despite each of the previous 3 being superb cases something in me just wanted another case. I think I'm in search of my perfect case but I dont quite have the finances to make it happen.

Anyway, so what about you guys?
 
I own 2, one ive used since about 2002 and my new one since last week :) Chieftec tower to a Phanteks Ethoo primo. I dont think i get the upgrade itch quite as often as yourself by the looks of it.
 
Several cases over the years but my current in-use selection are all fractal design cases.

Define R5 (main rig)
Define r4 (server)
Node 605 (htpc)

Also still have the following

lian-li v1000
a-open (white thing)
antec fusion max
Jeantec black and grey box

So yes, I have a case fetish of sorts too.
 
I have two spare cases, one is a Lian Li full aluminium one which I bought on impulse and have only ever used as a footrest, and the other is an Advent Centurion case, which I have only ever used as a legrest. :p
 
I have a well worn Bitfenix Shinobi white that I used as a main case for 2 years which I upgraded to an NZXt H440 when I started watercooling.

Now I just mod the H440 when I fancy a change.

What do people do with old cases when they need rid of them? Sell them or scrap them?
 
I've always been a bit of a caseaholic and go in phases of upsizing and downsizing depending on whether I think my PC is getting too hot or not. I dumped a couple a few weeks back so currently in the house/loft/garage are the following.


Nzxt H440 2015 version
Phanteks Pro M
Corsair 350D
Corsair 450D
Lian-Li PC-7 PLUS
Silverstone TJ11
Silverstone FT01
Thermaltake X2
 
Sadly I only own the one case now. A Shinobi XL. Had to move suddenly with a dramatic downsize so ended up dumping a few cases. Nothing too special though thankfully.
 
Phanteks Entho Primo Orange & Black - In use i7 920 Gaming PC
Phanteks Mini XL - Empty in spare room - to noisy and rattles and creaks
Fractal Define R3 - Love this case so well built, i5 4460 application software no games.
Bitfenix Phemon Black - i5 3570s, in living room as VR PC
AVP Gladius - was used as HTPC with core2quad, now in spare room idle
Antec ISK300-150 Black Mini-ITX - Empty in spare room. may revive this at some point only has a 150w psu
 
3 cases in all. In Win Tou - Main case, Lian Li PC-05S - HTPC in living room and a NZXT Phantom 820 - totally oversized NAS
 
4 in total. Parvum 2.0 for my main, Fractal Define S for a rig i'm currently building and an Antec Super Lanboy with my old AMD Socket 939 rig in.
 
I've still got my Coolermaster ATCS110 from when I was 17. I'm now 32.

Awesome case. It's had about 10 different motherboards in it over the years
