I want to get the Corsair 250D for a build but since seeing the most recent video from linus I am almost driven to get that case... Are there any other cases for ITX you guys recommend. 

 

I have a 250D myself.

 

Although I do think the Node 304 is also a very nice case.

Don't care for the Prodigy much, but only because I feel that is very bulky. Still a very solid case. I had the mATX version of it once.

 

If you have any questions about compatibility or anything else about the 250D, just ask.

Thermals good with air cooling and no noticeable dust build up?

Well my 290 stays under 80°C at all times, under a heavy gaming load under 75°C.

CPU stays under 65°C with the 4.0 OC, but that's mostly because I only have that small cooler. Get an AIO and you can easily oc much higher.

 

I do clean dust out of the dust filters about every month or so, you will notice that this helps a lot, since every bit of air that the GPU gets less let's temps rise. Nothing too bad though.

There is some minor dust build up, but nothing bad. I have done an actual cleaning of the inside after 6 months of use and there was nothing big there.

I figured there would be no significant dust buildup since every vent is filtered... I will probably use the 250D in my next build
