Small form factor case recommendation

[lumin87]

hi, wondering if anyone here has experience with small-form factor cases, and got one to recommend. Intend to use it to build a gaming rig. much appreciated!

Would be good if you state what kind of mobo u want to use? ATX? mATX? ITX?

My case (see RHS) is one of the smallest cases for a full ATX board. Good experience even though I'm running a hot chip i7 920 C0.

If you are going mini itx you can consider the Bitfenix Prodigy or the new corsair 350D, both looks really good especially the 350D how ever im unsure if its available in singapore yet.If you want to get a 'normal sized' board and would also like a small case you can consider the CM CM690. These are the few cases that i can think of which looks aesthetically pleasing yet having pretty decent airflow.

Some links if you are interested in these cases:

Corsair Obsidian 350D Review - YouTube < 350D

Coolermaster 690 II Advanced White Edition Review - YouTube < 690


TTL reviews are the best imo and if you are serious in getting the 'best' case or just want to find out what each case has to offer I'd suggest you watch the entire videos even though its really long but it will be worth it

Do you remember when a height of 40cm was considered normal and not SFF? Pepperidge farm remembers.
