450mm or less wide

360mm or less deep

Not too high, HTPC form factor

ATX

Suport for long (ish) GPU

around 100$, will pay up to 150$ for nice aluminum front panel.

 

I found this:

Seems good, 75$, but i would prefer something with aluminum.

I know, though I'm not sure of much else. Browse through Lian Li and cross your fingers?

Thats pretty too, but ITX.

 

I might just go with the silverstone one i linked in the OP, as it suposedly has nice plastic, and is like the same shape as my receiver, with similar plastic front

I think the GD10 has an actual brushed aluminum front.

This is the GD08.

What do you need from Lian Li, and where. I can try to help. PM me if you want, or hit our face book https://www.facebook.com/LianLiHQ

OK, I'll do that.

I just need to research what Lian li cases fit my needs

I went with the Silverstone GD05. It's good for what it is. Just don't expect it to support an AIO without modding.
