Console killer case

[reconninja33]

Hi

I am looking to build a console killer pc to go know my loving room. I need am extremely small chassis. It needs to be the size of an Xbox one or ps4 while still fitting decent sized hardware. The ftz01 is a little big so I was wondering if there were any cases that fit my criteria. Oh yeah it has to fit a dual slot card although it can be a short one like the gigabyte gtx 970 itx. So I don't need to fit 10 inch cards, just a dual slot card.

Thanks in advance

You could either go tiny case like the Ncase M1 or SG13, or go console like with the Node 202 for example.

They did an overpowered mini-ITX build in an LTT video, and the case looked pretty good. Very small and still fit some very overpowered gear.

It's a Silverstone Sugo SG13, btw.

the FTZ01 is about as small as they get (at least in the thin, console-esque, form factor)

 

other small cases include the SG13 and Ncase M1

Thanks for all the replies. What about the rvz02? I saw a video about it at ces. I found an ebay link to purchase an ftz02 but it might be fake so i'm not sure.  (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Silverstone-SST-RVZ02B-Black-Mini-ITX-Slim-Desktop-HTPC-Case-/252064269310?hash=item3ab03383fe)  Also, the ncase and sg13 aren't the same form factor as the xbox one. They're a bit to tall for my needs. It needs to go into a media cabinet of sorts. Is the ftz01 the same size as the rvz01? or is it smaller? Also the node 202 cant be purchase yet, but that does seem like the best option since its extremely small. If i can find it on ebay or on amazon, i will make that pruchase.

you mean the RVZ02, it is about 2cm thinner, but also 2cm "deeper" (front to back) the node 202 is only a little bit smaller than the RVz02, about the same thickness and width, butabout 4cm less "deep".

Yeah, the rvz02. The depth is less important then the width. So i guess ill go with the node 202 when it comes out, but how about that rvz02 link? It looks sketchy

well the seller has a lot of positive feedback, but the small number that are negative are concerning.I'd suggest looking at the more well known stores

[reconninja33]

The case isnt released in any big stores yet so I guess I'm just playing the waiting game on the rvz02 or the node 202

Whichever comes first wins me over.

that's odd, it's already appeared around here (Australia) and we're usually one of the last to get tech related things.
