Thanks for the recommendation, but for this case even if you throw me into a pit of lava I also won't use.

I prefer the cooler master elite 361 chassis. It gives you lots of hard disk space. Btw, for 2.5" drive, one should use those cooler master 2.5" to 3.5" adapter because that way, one adapter can put 2X 2.5" add/hdd and take up only a single 3.5" slot.

Elite 361 is not smallest though.

That bad huh? Maybe if you specify what you don't like about the case then people can recommend stuff that more closely matches?

Can also check out Silverstone SG12, Precision PS07. Jonsbo U3, C3, V4,

Just the aesthetics of that Silverstone that made my hair stand. The Jonsbo ones look good siah. Saw a local distro also.

Do note Jonsbo Ventilation generally is a afterthought. Usually zero intakes and at best 1 exhaust.

I was doing more reading up and realized new mainboards got this M.2 SSD thing where you can put a SSD stick on mainboard. With this I will only need 1 SSD and 2x 3.5" slots liao, no need 2x 2.5 anymore. Me is very outdated.

thermaltake v21 ?

 

[t258jgn]

bringing out the big guns! I'm quite interested in this. Just wary of it's restrictions like gpu/psu size.

VGA length: 290mm
410mm (Remove HDD rack)
PSU length: 180mm

No problem for fitting
Gigabyte Xtreme Gaming GTX 980 Ti @ 287mm
Seasonic P860 @ 165mm

Got case to recommend? Ideally can fit a typical Fury (non-X), don't think I'll be using one of those coolers with a sealed loop, just gonna use a normal hsf.

Fury Nano good to go but err prolly have to be careful of height of HSF By default is 80 mm front/rear possible to mount 2 x 120 mm front and side panel?


"Dual Chamber" so actually non modualr PSU no issue with cable management lol

2 x 3.5" + 1 x 2.5" on the PSU side and i think more on mobo side?

secure disks from below
