No don't! Sleeper retro PCs are back in style, I wish I was joking but I'm serious. Pack that ten year old case with as much power your poor little wall outlet can provide!

Oh, I'm not throwing it away. I'm just building a new PC. The old case will become a self-hosting server with somewhat low tier but newer parts.

I hope this is right. I hate the rgb craze. Everything is $100 more expensive because it has $0.30 of LEDs attached to it.

I didn't mean to say that products manufacturers produce will stop having RGB, yeah it's here to stay. I meant people's unique builds, stuff people post to /r/rate_my_pc, or builds.gg. Custom built and pre-built PCs are going to be slammed with more and more RGB until that case is brighter than the sun. PC parts are never going to get as cheap as they were 15 years ago I'm afraid.
