Computer case
A computer case which is also called as a tower, box or chassis. This case holds all the component of the computer and protect your computer from any dust and things can be harm the computer. Typically the case come pushed with the power supply.A mid-tower, mini or micro cube is fine for most users. however a full tower maybe needed for servers or users who want a lot of spaces. the users has to consider the fans.The more fans the cooler computer will be.
Important facts about cases:
Motherboard, cases and power supply are comes indifferent sizes and shapes which called form factor. These three components well match to work together.
Some of these cases are made from metal which have very sharp edges, so be careful when you worked with these types of cases.
These cases excluding many things inside of it. Like keyboard, mouse, monitor and other external peripherals (fisher, n.d).
The description of any case:
The front of the computer case has two things a power button and the reset button. There is a small LED light which shoes that the computer is work which represent the recent power status, hard drive activity other internal processes. The two button is connects with the motherboard that is inside the case and secured from it.
In front of these cases also there is a expansion bays about 5.25 inches and 3.5 inch designed for optical drives. Floppy disk drives, hard drives and other media devices. For example, there is DVD drive too and the person who used it easy for them to reached it and used it.
What we have the at the back of the case. There are many of connectors like for the mother board, the power supply allows for the power and built in fan. The fans and the other devices are involved at all sides of the case.
How to open a computer case (by steps):
There are one or two sides for allow the person to accessed the internal components. For instruction of the safety way for opening a case inter to the link below to see how you can do it:

The sizes:
Case can come in different sizes which called form factor. The case sized depends on the motherboard form factor. For example, “a case designed for an ATX motherboard and power supply may take on several external forms, such as a vertical tower (designed to sit on the floor, height > width) or a flat desktop (height < width) or pizza box (height ≤ 5 cm (2 in), designed to sit on the desk under the computer's monitor). Full-size tower cases are typically larger in volume than desktop cases, with more room for drive bays and expansion slots. Desktop cases—and mini-tower cases under about 46 cm (18 in) high—are popular in business environments where space is at a premium”.
The Popular Case Manufacturers:
Xoxide, NZXT, Antec
How the case should be chosen:
It is preferred that you get an aluminum case because it dissipates heat. Most come with a fan and power supply. Look for a case with either dual 80mm fans or a single 120mm fan. If yours doesn't come with a power supply or if your current one isn't good then get one. If you have extreme graphics cards then get a power supply with extra electrical attachments for peripherals.
Summary:
The computer cases have different names like. Box and chassis. There is different side on it one of the sides is the way of opening to inter the internal components like the motherboard and there device. There is a safety way that the person can do it for opening the case as I include the like upper. However the in front side of the case have two buttons which are the power and reset button. Also there is the light LED button that show that the computer internal components are working. The other sides have the connector that the parts of the computer work with. For example, the power supply that makes the whole computer work. Keyboarded, mouse and other devices connectors. There is a different sizes and different shape of the case. For example, Xoxide, NZXT, Antec

- Each case and mother board has a form factor which is the size of the case and motherboard. The form factors of both must match in order for them to fit. Make sure that there are matching or higher number of card slots on the case than there are the motherboard; if there are more card slots on your motherboard than your case then you are limiting performance.
- Cases come in several sizes. SFF (Small Form Factor) cases are portable small and are the only cases with integrated motherboards. There are other sizes ranging from mini to full tower. If you choose to get small cases then don't put really powerful equipment in it, or it will overheat ( Zark and others).
