As most of you are already aware, a case is a large box that holds all your components together securely. Case choices are subjective: the same case can be called ugly or beautiful depending on the viewer's taste. Recommendations are based on prices, features, and availability. A good case fits your hardware, has good airflow, is quiet, and is sturdy. Bottom-mounted PSUs and options for cable management are great bonuses.

If you like a case that fits the criteria mentioned above, get it even if it is not mentioned on Logical Increments—as long as the price is reasonable. But at any rate, to get you started, in this article we've compiled and maintained the four charts below, which list a number of options for cases from reputable manufacturers at different sizes and prices.
