I finally bit the bullet and have bought new gubbins for a new build. My current PC is about 7 years old now and is showing its age to say the least.
What I have been doing it giving my old PC's to my sister. The one she has been using was my really old one and it struggling to even show full-screen youtube.
Anyway, I have a large cooler on my current CPU, and it is a full ATX motherboard. I want to keep hold of my case as it is an old Akasa Eclipse-62. Tons of room, not flashy, great for maintenance.
So I need a new case that can fit a tall cooler (160mm), is cheap-ish, and doesn't have a grill on the top. She has a couple of kids and I can't guarantee that liquids will be kept away from this.
I have a feeling this would have been perfect if it wasn't for the top grill
