I wanted to use dell optiplex sff case to build pc but cannot because of btx, proprietary psu, drive etc

Is there any sff office pc case that uses standard atx/matx/itx components? I like the aesthetic of sff office pc cases

Most of not all prebuilt pc by major retailers (hp, dell...) Uses propriety components.

You can't find those compatible components (brand new) that fit without modding the case

Even if u find 1... The layout is so customised for the motherboard,psu and casing

U probably need to file some metal parts etc or whatever it takes to fit some stuff inside

Inwin Chopin? But cannot put gpu. Maybe those single slot, low profile ones like GT 1030, but I'm not sure whether it fit or not ultimately.
