Desktop Computer Cases

Computers come in cases to protect the user from electric shock and to protect the computer and all its components from duct and animal, including human, interference. This arrangement works well for the animals, who are protected, but it is far less beneficial for the central processing unit (CPU) and all the motherboard and all the other components. This is because the flow of cooling air is restricted by the computer case.

Therefore, manufacturers of computer cases put fans inside them to stop the internal components from warping from the high temperatures under which computer chips would otherwise have to operate. This arrangement works well enough, if the case is large enough to allow the free circulation of air. The problems start when the case is reduced in size as with many desktop computer cases.

The area that desktop computer cases take up is called their footprint. Most desks are of a certain size and so desktop computer cases with a large footprint can leave little room to do anything on the desk such as consult reference books or make manual notes.

This is why at first there was a move to reduce the size of the desktop computer cases' footprints. However, that can lead to over-heating, which will lead to the premature death of the CPU or and motherboard from warping due to excessive heat. The next step was to make the case larger again but strong enough to support the monitor or a printer. That design of desktop computer cases works quite well, but still takes a lot of room on a small desk.

This is why we are where we are today, with most people using floor-standing, full-tower computer cases. They allow the user more desk space and they can be bigger to allow a greater circulation of air around the internal components which really can get very hot even with two or three fans blowing inside.

If you are a home user, a you might prefer the desktop computer cases, because you have room enough and maybe the full tower cases make vacuuming more difficult, but imagine if you had fifty computers on twenty-five desks. How much more floor space would you need then and how much would you save if your fifty computers each lasted at least a year longer?
