New casing time. Need more HDD, more PCI-E...

[wwenze]

And no deeper than Silverstone SG-13

At least 3 expansion slots, one of them can be the anywhere type since I will be using M.2 to PCI-E. (And 2 expansion slots will be used for GPU naturally)

Any idea?

Any size or form factor limitation ?

Less than 290mm depth

Height probably not an issue

Total volume, less than 20L else I would just go for generic mATX chassis instead

Can fit ITX mobo

He already said.... no deeper than Silverstone SG-13.

But can be a taller shoebox or mini tower, cube, etc ...

Placing Jonsbo U3 and C2 on candidate list

I like C2 size but that depth may come back to bite me if I use any normal length GPU

U3 is nice even if a bit normal in terms of layout. But somehow the number of drives is even less than C2.

This layout is nice, mATX chassis actually at 17 litres

How many storage bays do you need exactly ?
Most compact case, short of a traditional mini tower, will have limited options.
