Hey! :)
I'm lookig for a new case! Atm i got a bitfenix prodigy, but i don't like the design of it!:(

What i'm looking for is a itx cube case!
Requirements for the case:

 

PSU must be installed at the bottom.

 

There needs to be space for a cpu cooler that is 17cm high( I'm using an Be Quiet Dark rock pro 2)

 

Space for a long gfx, like a 780(11inches/28cm)
 

There needs to be space for 1 fan at the front and back!(I would prefer 120-140mm fans)

I've been looking at different shops(In Denmark) But none of the cases can fulfill my requirements :(

I hope that some of you can help me! :D

Sincerely, Kristian Gyde

Caselabs S3! You never stated your budget, so..... Yeah.

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Most cube cases don't support large coolers and large gfx cards so that would be hard to find.

The shipping would probably be as much as the case if not more.

Hm.... Does the hadron fit a 17mm cooler?

I kinda like this case: http://www.cubitek.com/products/mini-series/mini-cube

 

But it lags the space for the cpu cooler and the fans! :(

yeah. That case is pretty nice.

cubitek mini cube?

+1 on this case. I think Linus used it in one of his titan builds and it is great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGIb0tws_e4

 

The new Bitfenix Phenom? 

The review from HardwareCanucks says that it doesn't have any room for cable management so you would need a modular psu in order to build a system in this case imo.

I've been looking a lot at the Cubiteck mini cube. But the problems is that is won't fit my Be quiet Dark rock pro 2 ! :(

And there is only a fan at the back, and it's a 80mm fan :(

 

That's the only case fan? :o Check out the Parvum S1 (Native MATX, I think it can fit an ITX).

The bitfenix prodigy and Phenom are almost the same case! :/ the specs are the same(I know that the height is not, but the difference is only there because the prodigy has standoffs)
And the space for the psu is a NIGHTMARE! I got a normal atx psu from Be quiet, and i won't fit because it's modular! :S

Ah, right. I forgot that you're air cooling.

Wunderwuffle:

Hehe :P I just don't like the premade lc systems for cpu's! Imo they are so noisy! :/ I can almost always hear the pump :S

What AIOs have you tried so far?

Wunderwuffle:

I've only tried corsair products so far! :)

And before I went HAM on ITX i got a custom made Lc system with a swiftech pump.

You live in Denmark, right? If you're willing to give AIOs another shot, try to buy the Swiftech H220.

 

Nice!

evga hadron is good, but the built in psu is only 500w. So it can be a major turnoff.

For all the falsely accused: message me and we can decide how to right all the wrongs that happened to you!

I'm looking at the major corporations, the lying online communities, the government that protects us...

We are HUMANS, not robotic slaves!
