Really is so want this ZS A4L V1 https://zscases.com/products/zs-a4l-v1 at 205 depth, so my GPU will fit. I know that is not happening, so what small, 6ish inch tall cases have a PSU at the bottom?

Any reason psu has to be at the bottom?

 

You need a longer gpu length so its more logical to get a case where the psu is on the side or in a spot that doesnt interfere with a psu like a nr200p

The case needs to be 6" tall? That's not a ton of options... 

 

I know in one of your other threads about picking a case I suggested Meshlicious, was there a reason that won't work? It'll fit any GPU and the PSU is at the bottom.

The PSU has to be at the bottom and the case has to be 6 inches tall total?

 

You realize even an SFX PSU is 2.5 inches tall? 

 

The case you linked to where you said the only problem was it wasn't deep enough is much more than 6 inches tall. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

If you have that strict of a requirement you'd probably be better off just making your own

The one I linked, how hard would it be to make it deeper?

I believe they mean "deep" based on the dimensions, but I could be wrong.

@Edward78 a similar case would be the Velka 3

https://www.velkase.com/products/velka-3 

Dimensions (L x W x H)

189 x 96 x 218 mm (7.4 x 3.8 x 8.6 in)

 

If you like this option I'd recommend picking up the available PSU with the case

205mm, if that's the length of your GPU, is just over 8".

I think that is what my card in sig is.

201.8mm according to EVGA, but close enough.

 

Even the case you linked to in the first post which you said isn't deep enough is over six inches deep.

If the SGPC K40 had metal vented sides and was black, it would be perfect.
