My sights are currently set on the Evolv ITX. but I'm curious as to other options.

 

My criteria are as follows:

  • Max Height 380mm
  • Mini-ITX or Micro-ATX
  • at least 2 HDD bays
  • Ability to comfortably fit at least 360mm of radiator for Mini-ITX, and 480mm for Micro-ATX
  • Shape can be Cube or Tower

Are there any cases that you know of that fits those specs?

The node 804 from fractal design is good. It can fit 2 240mm rads.

actually... darn the 915 R and F won't work, it would work as a separate box, but i can't fit 360mm's of rad in there with the components the added thickness of the rad and fans means it wont fit between the PSU or drive cages. any other similarly long cases?
