Yeah look at the air flow over everything that is great. something not working you can give each component a small tap instead of smashing the case.
Theres no need to try and fit all those cables in a space that just wont fit a 1/4 of them.
and theres no H&S problems its all extra low voltage.
Are you building a wee portable PC that youcan take a part and fit in a suitecase.

In truth, that's my old PC. It was killing power supplies (two in two months), so in an effort to figure out why I pulled it all out of the case, as I suspected it was shorting out somewhere or something.
Back when I was at uni I used a PC with no case, so that I could take it apart, pack it into anti-static bags and put it in my suitcase with my clothes whenever I came back up home. Somewhere I have a picture of that too, but I think it's an actual physical photograph, from back in the days before I had a digital camera.

Eh... At least its not like my last PC where I had to keep the case open so I could set up a desk fan to keep it cool... Lol

The monitor--- it's so narrow. Were they really that narrow?  |

The monitor--- it's so narrow. Were they really that narrow? Yeah, it's a 17" monitor too, which I remember being HUUGE when going from an old CRT previous. It might look narrower than usual too because the resolution is quite low in that picture - I'd just installed that video card and it hadn't loaded the right drivers for it. |

I took the photo just after I fired the computer up for the first time, and that computer didn't have that video card in it originally.
