Hi all.

My PC has just blown up so I'm taking it apart to figure out what's wrong and I just realised what an absolute pain in the bum my case is, weighing in at 19.6 kg to move around. it's 95% metal.

I'm looking for a recommendation for a similar sized case but much lighter.

The dimensions are 68.58 x 26.92 x 64.26 cm.

It doesn't need to be exact, just capable of supporting large graphics cards, I have a 4070ti super and an atx board with as much space inside to manoeuvre without shredding my hands.

Thank you.
 
Hello, one of my brother's friends has an Antec Performance 1 FT case (E-ATX), which weighs about 13kg alone. I know, not much of an improvement, but it's something. Also I wanted to ask if you would be selling your EVGA DG-87 when you find a replacement for it, I'd be interested
 
A case of that size is never going to be light and always a pain to carry. Aluminium would help.

You could go for a compact case and still have support for large cards, e.g. Lian Li 207 or go MATX (e.g. Antec CX600M).
 
Glass panels can be heavy too. The Fractal North XL can fit a lot of gear. Quite light case but decent quality.
The heaviest case I owned was the Corsair 7000D airflow.
