AMD Mid-Range Gaming Build: Case
While all of the components we are selecting here today are what we would go with, and priced from vendors we trust, it is always a good idea to shop around as deals on these, or other good options, pop up from other reliable vendors all the time. With that said, let’s dive right into the next order of business.

In our previous build guides, we have enjoyed the flame fest that has arisen from the choice of cases. So, today, we go back to the well one more time to see if we can build a consensus about a chassis. Remember, this is a more budget-oriented build so our case selection has to reflect that. Thus, we have gone with the SilverStone PS-15.
The SilverStone Ps-15 is our choice today because it is reasonably flexible for its price point, has a good feature set, and it is not too bad to look at. One of the unique features of the case is the illuminated SilverStone logo when the system has power. This is one of those things that does not actually do anything to help with the case functionality, but it is an interesting detail that shows SilverStone will go that extra mile with their cases even when they cost so little. On top of that, this system has both a tempered glass side panel and lacks any plastic. At this price point, that kind of quality is often hard to find. So, the Ps-15 is an easy pick for this guide, even if some of you will disagree with the looks and my sanity.
