The smallest gaming mitx case is the sg05 and is 11 liters but can only fit about a 9.5'' gpu.

 

With some modding you can fit a Titan together with an H80(i) inside a SG05 :P

This case is already quite small considering the hardware it is capable to hold inside.

I still like the look of the Ncase M1 better though ;)

Oh god...I hate integrated PSU's. They are a nightmare to sleeve especially in such a small case.

I actually like the case. Excited to see the mods that people do with it.

 

Edit:

 

They are running a promo to win the case, a gtx 780, 4770k, 8gb ram and a SSD @ http://www.evga.com/articles/00778/

Everytime I see the name it looks like "EVGA Hardon".

Thought I was the only one lmao.

I know :), I was just basing it off of MaximumPC: http://www.maximumpc.com/evga_hadron_air_mini_itx_case_built_enthusiasts2013

 

 

 

It comes with an integrated high-performance 500W Gold rated power supply that delivers up to 40A on the +12V rail.

 

But I hope that the PSU is removable. I can't stand the sight of unused cables.

It most probably will be removable, but it is definitely not 'off the shelves' ;)

anyone know if there is a way to get a H60 or maybe even a H100i in this little beauty? Sounds like people have managed to do the latter with some heavy modding, I'm wondering if the H60 will fit without taking a hammer to the case...

Dunno, but EVGA is releasing a slightly taller version of this to make room for water cooling on top, so watch out for that

I'm pleased with my SG09. No changing now :D

yup, seems like all your need for mini itx - if you were to go air.

Check out the build: Used to be Obot, now Lilith

Don't forget it comes with a custom 500W 80+ Gold PSU :) (Still on the pricey side though..)

Yeah it would work well for a media PC. I'm aware of the included PSU but as you said it's still a little pricey for what it is.

Have this case sitting at the house awaiting some parts to go in it. The build quality is solid and I'm looking forward to completing the build.
