Hi Guys;

 

First post, but the search function yielded nothing.

 

I am looking for a case that will sit on my desk, in the wall corner, and am hoping to try and find one that has the front panel I/O (and power etc) on the side panel, similar to the In-Win 909 ( Linky! ) as i don't have £330 ($415) to spend!

 

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I am hoping to spend around £150 ($200) as a ball park.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Richard

Evening;

 

The left side (i suppose i should have mentioned that)

 

This is my current situation - https://goo.gl/photos/Fg8h3gFjzjNTakpo7

 

I'm happy to go from a Mid-Tower to a full tower as well if necessary, as i'm currently using a Phanteks P400S

Yeah, i never understood why case makers think you want your window on one side, but all your I/O on the other /boggle

 

yeah lol makes no sense

you could get a case with front IO it wouldn't be too bad

 

edit: btw that monitor position is realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly bad for your neck having to turn like 45* just to see the screen is terrible

The thermaltake core x5 would work.  I'm a huge fan of the horizontal mobo cases.  You can also switch which side the io and window are on. The only downside is it is a bit wider than a normal case.  http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/mobile/productinfo.aspx
