I'm on my phone atm so I'll keep this brief. So p much I've had my current build for a year where I've been running a 3570k w/ an ASRock Z77 Pro 3 in a Zalman Z9 U3. Recently I've had an ASUS GTX 770 and a Hyper 212 Evo cooler fitted and I've started overclocking both CPU and GPU. However I'm kinda having a few issues with my case and I wondered whether it's worth replacing with something like a Corsair or not. Specifically it seems to catch a lot of dust easily, the fan controller doesn't seem to work, I had to use an extension cable to get the front USB slots working since it wasn't a USB 3 header and cable management is somewhat difficult, especially since I have to push down hard sometimes to get the right side panel back on.
Aside from that the 'roof' top plate or whatever its called is difficult to remove because of how the back clips are difficult to access because the mobo and heatsink are in the way and lately to get the side panels to slot back on once taken off I have to take the front plate off, screw both side ones back in then push hard to clip the side plate on. So yeah, a lot of little issues that come together as an annoyance, including the fact that I have a modular PSU which I feel deserves better cable management. Is it worth bothering to replace and if so what decently priced cases are out there that sound alright.
