SFF cases.

I dunno, I kinda have to disagree with most of that list.

CM Elite seems too cheap, plus I don't like full ATX PSUs in mini builds (I'm a huge sucker for the SG05 and the 450W PSU will power anything so you don't a ATX PSU).

The Prodigy is simply not a mini case - wasted potential by not being Micro ATX. Temjin TJ08-E is smaller AND Micro ATX.

Mini Box is great, but I prefer the Antec ISK110 personally.

Fractal Design Array R2 I think is so much better than the plastic Node 304.


All just my opinion of course lol
 
Wow.this sure would make a awesome LAN machine, a little higher for a GPU & a good way to cool it. A mATX version would rock. I am a bit nuts about really small systems now.

I have the Coolermaster from that list. The picture makes the front look silver and quite garish but in reality it's more of a dark brushed aluminium colour. Can't say I enjoyed putting it together, shoe horn definitely needed. But the amount of power you can get into these SFF cases is incredible.

I still love the Bitfenix and it would have been my choice but it was just that little bit too tall for where I wanted it.
 
No sure about this list. Yes they are all mainstream, but with the exception of the M350 I'd choose others.I mean what about the Lian Li Q series... some seriously lovely cases there, Silverstone SG-05> , The Hoojum Cubit 3 (admittedly you have to find it 2nd hand), mcubed, streacom and the many other smaller companies around. There isn't any mention of the N-Case M1 that could be suggested as one of the best future cases...

They seem to have just chosen mainstream cases and not looked into anything else. Put some effort into any artical like that... Bring something we've not seen before.
 
I'm considering an M-ITX build and am really interested in the Node, SUGO 05/08 aswell as the Lian Li Q series.

I would agree that the Prodigy is a nice looking case but wouldnt consider it an SFF (IMO)

If anyone has any pics of their setups in either of the above I would be interested to see pics and specs :)
 
Untidy Pic of My PC-Q11

Should be a fair few changes happening soon enough (WC I hope :))
Only change to that spec is the replacment of the 2600k with a i7 3770K

Also did a PC-Q02 build which I can give you some pics for... That I would love to mod.
