ATX Cube Case

[Exodk]

Hey guys,

 

Long time lurker, but im looking for an ATX Cube case. with a horizontal motherboard... i know theres the HAF XB EVO.... but what else is there? 

 

does the Corsair Air 540 Support rotation of the logo and feet on the other side so i can bend it over and plug my peripherals in from behind? 

 

if so then my choice is made. Air 540 Owners Please let me know!

 

 

(PS. innuendo intended.)

Corsair Air 540 I don't believe supports rotation of the logo and feet, though if you give me around 1-3 months so I can get my hands on one, I'll be able to let you know

 

You could get some rubber feet for it so when you lay it on its side the PSU can still breathe.

The Air 540 is overpriced in my opinion. I've owned it for nearly a year and I regret buying it.

 

Mainly because I personally feel that it's poorly made: there's a ton of plastic pieces on it (something I'm growing to not like), only one fan filter for the front fans (poor design decision), and the HDD's I have mounted will vibrate the cage causing this weird annoying noise.

 

Would not buy again.

 

 

The Air 240 supports rotation, but it's not ATX.

any alternatives that you guys know of? 

 

i hear Parvum are making an ATX case... ive asked them for a quote for one... nearly 500AUD including shipping...

 

is there an ITX version of the air cube case?

I'm personally picking up a X9 next week, retiring the Enthoo Primo..loll

Hadn't decided yet.

I'm in Queensland, so unless you're local it's going to be very expensive to ship.

[Exodk]

i dont mind shipping from QLD to NSW

Fair enough, you do know how big the Primo is right?

It can fit 2 Power supplies, 1 vertical and 1 horizontal, I'll get a shipping estimate and get back to you.

 

There's all the info on the primo:

Told you, it's freaking huge mate, but it is a full tower, which makes it very tall too..

I'm going to the X9 for case modding purposes, so the Primo will probably end up with the Carbine 500R and H440 in the garage..lol...

h440 in the garage. what the hell.... what colours?

 

i was tempted to get an S340 but i HATE the glossy finish. i wish it was a matte finish

I hope you guys don't mind if i butt in, but I'm also looking for ideas for a cube case that can support an ATX motherboard (orientation does not matter). Any ideas?

Black and Red mate.

I don't use it because its a damn oven, even my GTX980 Gaming G1 temps go up 8c - 10c.

To get the thing to actually cool you have to increase fan speed which makes the case really loud.

 

As a nice looking case it fills the spot, but as a practical case no, just no.
