Do you guys know about this case??

Not seen that case before but a quick google brings up the manufacturers website http://www.morex.com.tw/products/product_view_en/69

It doesnt list any uk resellers on that site so if you are interested it maybe worth giving one of the OCUK staff a shout to see if they have plans to sell it.

Cool, that one looks good for a temp LCD in the bottom bay... I wish the case had some reviews...Those 2 are the only mATX cases that small with no riser needed full height exp. slots I have found... If they had good air flow/no issues they look like a great lan PC could go in them... I have Protocase, but case design is a bit to much... All they have in the store is ITX cases...

Most small builds are going the itx way but it is a compromise on the parts you can use in it sometimes. Having said that I've got 2 itx builds that have taken big gpus in them. The Corsair 250d I have has got a GTX980 Ichill Hercules X4 Air Boss Ultra https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-045-IN&groupid=701&catid=1914&subcat=1812 in it and that is a beast of a card but I managed to just about get it in.
 
There is the SG05 for mITX, that is good & small... Just got excited about that case I listed cause it was mATX that looks like it can take full height cards,,,

My HTPC is in a Silverstone SG13. Very similar to the SG05 but you can get in a slightly longer gpu in it.
 
That case is in tooling, that is why I can't find it... I emailed the sales lady & she said that, plus I emailed protocase to see how much they could build it for. The solid sides if it is layed down might be a issue with heat, I hope not though.
 
Hmm. I'm making my own SFF case with standard powertools / hand tools and 3mm aly sheet. I can't say it's as fast a process as CAD / CNC / laser cutting etc. But the results are turning out good so far.

It's nice that you mention about Protocase. Who are a UK company. Because they have some very useful ATX specification documents / case designing guides. e.g. about how to drill mounting holes / give enough clearance etc. So even though I'm not actually using them, still pretty grateful for that help.

Cool, I have Protocase, it is ok, but limited, I am trying to find a way to import the mother board i/o PCI slots onto the back, so I don't have to do the cutouts myself... I have issues & my hand can't really do the measurments exact... It is geared more for gen. machine cases & not PCs... It will open .cas files, but it has been a pain finding something that will hopefully save a .cas, I say hopefully cause it is still downloading... I have a ATX MB tray with the back i/o & PCI slots, I am wanting to convert that to .cas...
