Super tiny budget case?

[Aereldor]

Greetings.

I'm considering building a gaming PC for a friend, but he doesn't have a lot of space, wants to be able to fit this in a backpack and take it to LAN parties, and wants to stick with this 900p monitor he's real fond of. He asked me if I'd be willing to help him build a PC, or find a pre-built model (like the Zotac Zbox). I'd prefer to be able to build it myself, so what's the tiniest enclosure into which I can fit a mini-itx motherboard and a small form-factor GPU (750 Ti?).

Regards,
Aereldor.

Budget case? CoolerMaster Elite 110. Or Raijintek Metis. Both are cramped as hell.

 

Not-so-budget? nCase M1. However, getting M1 for 750 Ti and a budget build would be overkill. 

 

As far as the budget is concerned, what's the budget?

Corsair Bulldog? or Node 202?

Tell us the max budget first.

Smallest case. No holds barred. He can afford to spend it, but doesn't really care about price to performance. I don't need recommendations for any other parts as they're easy to figure out. Just the smallest case which will fit a mini-itx motherboard and small discrete GPU like the single-fan 750 Ti models.

Also, sorry, posted this in the wrong subforum. I'd be grateful if a moderator could move this to the 'Cases' sub.

This should be in general discussion or new builds and planing. Not hot deals

Yeah, I know, I slipped up with two open tabs. Already asked a mod to move it. My bad.

If it helps, he seems to be looking at something similar to the Mac Mini. Initially, I was tempted to go with an APU as you don't need as much power to run games at 900p, but considering that you can max out stuff at 900p with a 750Ti, I'm willing to compromise on that.
