The case is the basis that brings together all components of a computer system into a unified whole. A well-chosen case ensures stable PC performance. The versatile 2E and 2E GAMING range offers modern and relevant solutions for work, office, home computer systems and gaming stations. An office PC is primarily a system designed to perform specific tasks with a simple configuration. Naturally, it differs from a designer’s workstation or systems requiring high-tech solutions.
Design and materials. Most office cases have a classic shape and are made of 0.45-0.5 mm steel with a plastic front panel. Additional perforations or mesh on the front and side panels may be included to enhance airflow. Acrylic or tempered glass side panels are not practical for office setups, as they increase cost without adding functional benefits.
Case components and layout. Consider the placement of ports, buttons and indicators for convenient and easy access.
Optimal system configuration. Determine the necessary components based on PC requirements and ensure compatibility with the case specifications, including drive bays, expansion slots and power supply options.
Cooling system. Check for built-in cooling fans and additional cooling options to maintain optimal airflow.
Office PC cases typically come with standard features that ensure reliable performance. Since cost is a key factor in selection, it's important to review the specifications carefully to choose the best configuration for your future PC.
