Clear Computer Case
What is a clear computer case and what could it do for you? Well, before we start talking about the clear
computer case, let me ask you something: what does your desktop computer case mean to you? I could even ask: what
does your computer mean to you? I ask this because your answer will determine what you want for your computer and
its housing or case.
Most people have always been happy enough with the plain, standard, light-grey, full tower computer cases
that come as bog-standard with the majority of computers. Some have never even thought about it. But then there are
others who have thought about their desktop computer case a lot and who want something special for their
computer.
Some of these people were good at metalwork, others at woodwork and a few at glassware and there are some truly
fantastic, futuristic, homemade custom PC cases out there. Especially among the gaming community. However, we are
not all so gifted with our hands, but that does not mean that we have to be stuck with standard, grey,
desktop computer cases.
The easiest alternative, if you want a custom PC case is to make one out of acrylic – the type of material
used to make most fish tanks. You can buy and easily cut sheets of acrylic for the sides and bond them all together
with acrylic resin. That may sound difficult, but it really is not. First you would have to study the architecture
of a standard computer case and then just copy it in acrylic. You could make a clear computer case in a
weekend.
Or you could buy a clear computer case kit. These kits come in flat-packs just like most kitchen furniture and
can be easily assembled according to the instructions with a screwdriver. No cutting, no measuring, just a little
gentle screwing.
And I mean gentle, because the screws that come with the clear computer case packs are usually made of acrylic
too and will break easily. It is the only part of the assembly process that requires a cautionary note, because you
don’t want to have to drill out a broken screw, do you? That would only put a dampener on your fun.
So why would anyone want a clear computer case? I imagine that there are many reasons. Some people may just want
to be different and others may want to show that they can assemble or even create such a case. However, the clear
computer case also has aesthetic and practical advantages. At least the good ones do.
On the Aesthetic Front: enthusiasts add neon lights and small LEDs that flash on and off or just
glow eerily, perhaps triggered by some event, like a hard drive coming to life. These displays are called ‘themes’
and are typically red or blue, but can be almost any conceivable colour. Then you can add coloured fans (or paint
your existing ones). You already have at least one fan in your case and probably two or three.
On the Practical Front: lots of people like to see what is happening inside their computer case
and it is neither practical nor safe to remove the cover all together. Furthermore, assembling your own clear
computer case allows you to add more fans as over-heating is the main cause of hardware failure. The more fans the
better.
A clear computer case would also allow you to see if a fan has failed, which would result in over heating in a
normal case and certain hardware failure, whereas you would see it happening through your clear computer case and
replace the fan before serious damage and loss of data could occur.
