Downsizing my case

[josh3190]

Hey everyone,

Currently looking at downsizing from my current 650D to a smaller case, I've just ordered an mATX mobo but after this I have no idea what direction to go in with a case,

I've been looking at the Obsidian 350D, I think I would need a CPU cooler as I currently have a huge Akasa Venom heatsink currently,

Has anyone worked with one of these cases or any suggestions for alternatives? Wouldn't want to spend more than the 350D,

Thanks for any help!

I have an Evolv but be wary it isn't what I would call a small case, so much so I am seriously considering going back to the Silverstone TJ08-e.

Thanks for the suggestions,

Not overly keen on the look of the Evolv, I'm not necessarily looking for a 'small' case just something smaller and less cumbersome than the one I currently have which can't be hard!

Will have a look at the Silverstone,

Any one else have any suggestions/recommendations?

I have two Silverstone TJ08B-E micro ATX cases, not managed to find any case yet to replace them in regards to perfomance and such, very compact cases. They can take a massive CPU cooler, or if you run a 120 AIO a good few hard drives, even a 180mm front 120mm rear rad and custom watercooling with a two bay res looks great if you only use SSD's.

Though I did move my main system from a TJ08B-E to a Phanteks Mini XL.

I also have a Fractal Core 1000 that is small but not the most functional.

There is a TJ08 Pro comming out soon, though I think it may be slightly bigger than the old TJ08.
