Any recommendations? Preferably pure white with side windows and LED lights. Building a gaming rig so need to have efficient airflow. Not on a budget :)

Sorry man...a search for a white case with a side window brings up nothing. Looks like you'll have to either get a white case with now window, or get a different color case with a window.

i am sure white will be great... but trust me after a few months, that case will turn "creamy" and then you might wish u would have gone with black!

So go with a white but with caution!

Nice work finding one JohnnyLucky.

I'm not a fan of white PC cases, but to each their own.

I'm not too crazy about white myself. I still remember all those beige desktop cases. It was hard to keep the cases clean. But what the heck! That's what the OP asked for.

huron - Thanks!

eclipseme - I think Newegg and Tiger Direct still have a couple of white cases but they don't come up in their search engine. You have to look at the thumbnail photos during a manual search. Be prepared to go through over 300 listings.

@OP: Is this for some kind of a mod?

Imo, you'll better be off getting a black/silver,etc case and painting it white with automotive paint and then putting a clear coat over it. The reason you should put a clear coat is else the dust,etc is going to discolor the white.

Shadow703793,

We're probably getting off the OP's subject but I sometimes do case mods. Just finished modding a CM 932 HAF. Did it in a black and copper theme. I never thought of using automotive paint. is there any particular reason for using automobile paint?

Some clearcoats can yellow as time goes buy. I use a crystal clear laquer that is UV resistant.

^Usually auto motive paint is much more durable and the color is more cleaner looking, I also found it to dry quicker and is isier to apply. Yes, I was referring to the UV resistant clear coating (should have made it clear, no pun intended), in most cases they are UV resistant. I some times use engine enamel paint to give it a "thicker" look. I use DupliColor paint. They have a large color choice and doesn't cost too much over normal spray paint.

It's a very helpful thing for doing fine lines,writing,drawing,etc.
