Small ITX Case?

It's not that great, good first attempt though.

But what other case is that small and can fit a 780?

@shirokado, I know that you've already said that you have a cooler and the mobo, but I thought that it'd be worth considering an Intel NUC. Those things are really, really small. Plus, they come with a i5-4250U, which, given the uses that you've described, sounds like it'd be enough.

Anandtech has an great review of the NUC here: http://anandtech.com/show/7566/intels-haswell-nuc-d54250wyk-ucff-pc-review

The only thing to keep in mind is that it /is/ are barebones PC. The biggest NUC that you can buy supports *gasp* a 2.5" drive! Realistically though, you'll be buying (expensive) SO-DIMM RAM, a 1.8" SSD drive, and what will likely be a wireless card as well, in order to complete the build. Not that the wireless card is necessary at all, but it seems like a no-brainer.

Just my two cents, best of luck in your hunt for a case!
