Looking for smallest atx case

[GETxHIPFIREDx]

Hiya all

 

Im looking for the smallest atx case that i can find wthout a window. this pc will be a secondary pc with a capture card in it.

 

thanks in advance

iirc the S340 is pretty small

why not go with mini-atx?

[manikyath]

are there any other things that the case should/should not accomodate?

 

since you mention a capture card, the question of mass storage hard drives comes to mind.

The case labs bullet case is pretty small but also very capable

Yes but you also get what you pay for and case labs are well worth the money not that putting that much is always the best use.

Single ssd, but 2 pci express slots, a caputure card and a 980

I would look at HTPC cases like the node 605

Some micro ATX motherboards have two full PCIe slots. you should get a mATX case. it's much smaller.

With recent developments, any good matx cases?

IDK about the smallest, but there are definitely some good ones.

do you want the smallest or best?

A mix of both, i want something that i can easily hide behind my h440 or on top of it.

Noones metioned the riotoro cr1080 which is the smallest atx case. But it is only available in america (like all great things) https://www.riotoro.com/products/cr1080-small-gaming-case-with-compartment-design-full-atx-support/

Fractal Design Define Mini C? It might be larger than you'd get against something like an HTPC case but its undoubtedly a very nice case and can hold everything and be silent
