screwless cases?

jamiehavok · 1 Apr 2010 at 13:24

Is there any cases out there that are screwless except maybe motherboard screws as im not sure how else you would attach a motherboard. so hard drive bays, expansion cards including pci express would be completly screwless.

thanks.

theres lots that are screwless for most things excluding mobo and psu and then the side pannel is screwed on. the CM330 elite is one.

The Coolermaster Cosmos s is fairly screwless.

HDD's are screwless.
DVD bays are screwless.
Side panel is screwless.

Lancool K62 - everything is screwless - including the motherboard tray (alright it uses thumbscrews but still, no screwdriver needed).

The Xigmatek Utgard is also screwless, however I wouldn't completely advise 100% screwlessness on that as the PCI retention clips aren't the strongest things in the world.

I think quite a most Lian-li cases use thumbscrews ( do they count? ). Toolless design either way. At a price.

That's good then because I'm hoping to build into one soon

Either Red Dragon edition if I come into enough money to get some other "red" components or otherwise I'll have to just stick to the "common" blue scheme

I suppose I could just get the normal K62 and replace everything Blue with White? (i.e. fan LEDs etc)

You can customise them fully, all the parts are like lego coming in and out :cool:
