Ya acrylic side cases where a trend, maybe 3D monitors but everything else in there was just specific technology that has been replaced by better technology…
I remember the first full build I did. All of my fans had LEDs, the case had LEDs. The first time I tried to play on it in the dark basement the SU was blinding. I disconnected all of the case LEDs, and replaced my fans for plain black ones.
The thing that I wish would go away is oversized graphics cards that take up 3 or more slots. There needs to be more options for liquid cooling that doesn’t require modifying the card.
Uhh, plenty of people still use them (it’s still the default for many gaming monitors), and for 32:9 displays you absolutely need it curved or it’s basically unusable. I don’t think they’re going away any time soon, because they’re not a “trend”.
