Mountable Cases/HTPC Build Help

[AMD Lover]

Im looking to build myself a little gaming HTPC. So im on a budget, $500 or below, im wanting to mount it on the back of my TV. So my main question is that are there any VESA Mountable or easy modifiable cases out there? Also since im going cheap i would like to go with either a good APU since i play BF4 alot or an i3 and a low end GPU. I just need some recommendations. Again the case needs to be able to fit on the back of my TV or be able to mount to a wall.

I'd suggest making your own case with a removable tray, also bf4 on a low end GPU and i3!?!? That's... Yeah doubt your aiming for high settings.

How much weight can the TV stand take?

A thin aluminium box with a cut out on one side where the tray slide in.

This exists, but it's only for intel NUC boards and that obviously wouldn't include an external gpu. 

 

There is also this:

which has support for itx boards, but no external gpu... you could probably put a kaveri apu in there, but it's basically just a barebones case with no fans, no thing, so maybe you're better off making your own case.

I could probably get a slimline case and just build a wall mount. Where do i find a Silverstone Raven RVZ01, i cant seem to find one...

They're not out yet. However I was going to ask couldn't you just build a shelf on your wall? You just need a plank and a couple more things and you would be able to just let an itx case sit on top. Something like pic below

I'd wait for the Gigabyte BRIX pro to come out.
