I currently have a Lian-Li A10B (which i'm selling over in the Member's Market if anyone is interested ;)), and I need to get something smaller and more manageable, because i'm moving around quite a lot at the moment, and this thing is just a bit cumbersome.

I have a Bad Axe 2 mbd, quad core with a Tuniq Tower, an 8800GTX and 4 HD's. One of the HD's is in a Silentmaxx case taking up about 2 of the 5.25" slots though. I have just one DVD-RW. I see the Tuniq as being the main problem here, as it's a big SOB and is tricky even in the A10. I would consider downsizing to a smaller cooler if necessary though.

I want something that is, as i say, smaller and easily handled. Quiet would be a big bonus. Thanks in advance...
 
Anything under £100 really.

The A05 caught my attention, but that might be a bit on the small side with all my stuff. The Antec Three Hundred seems to get some great comments also, plus is very cheap.

I just built in an a05 and its an awesome little case.

Fits big cpu coolers as well and is incredibly tidy due to the layout.

Yeah, i think i'm leaning towards that one the more i read about it. My only concern is with my 8800GTX and the fact i will need to use all 3 HD bays, if the top one is going to be free with the size of the GTX, because it looks like it might be a bit tight in that area.
