Aka: Computer Case Computer Housing Computer Chassis System Casing Etc

This document defines and describes different types of computer cases. It begins by defining a computer case and listing its common names. It then describes the main types of cases: desktop and tower (including mini tower, mid tower, and full tower). For each type, it provides examples, advantages, disadvantages, and recommendations. It also details the parts of a computer case, including the front panel, back panel, and internal parts. Finally, it lists factors that influence computer case design, such as ergonomics, expansion capabilities, and cooling.

OBJECTIVE

By the end of this topic, student


should be able to:
• Define computer casing.
• Determine type of computer casing.
• List down the example for each part of
computer case.
• List down factors influenced the computer
case design
Types of Casing
Casing also called system is a box
like case that contains electronic
components of the computer.
Type of casing design :

1. Desktop
2. Tower
(Mini Tower, Mid Tower, Full Tower)
Ex: Dell GX260

Desktop Tower
DESKTOP

Desktop is
designed so that
the system unit fit
entirely on top a
desk table.
In some
models, the
monitor sits on top
of system unit
Desktop
● Advantages:
• Excellent for a desk computer
• Space

● Disadvantages:
• Difficult to upgrade
• Does not really work on the floor

● Recommendations:
• Excellent choice for a business and home user
computer
TOWER

 Most of the casing


now using a tower
style.
 This design enables
the system unit to
sit on the floor or
under the desk
vertically.
MINI TOWER

 Advantages:
• Excellent size which can be placed on top or
below of a computer desk.
 Disadvantages:
• While this case does offer upgradability, it can be
filled up much faster than the Mid-Sized tower.
 Recommendations:
• Great PC for end-users and small businesses.
MID TOWER

 Advantages:
• Excellent case which can fit below and on top of
your computer desk.
• Plenty of expandability for new devices for
businesses, end-users, and advanced users.
 Disadvantages:
• Almost None
 Recommendations:
• Excellent choice for all users and businesses.
FULL TOWER

 Advantages:

• Excellent case for a server machine.
 Disadvantages:
• Cost is going to be a lot more than a standard
case.
• Generally a large case which cannot be placed on
top or beneath a desk.
 Recommendations:
• For advanced users or users who plan to have a
stand alone machine as a server.
PARTS OF COMPUTER CASE
