Hi, this is going to be one of those annoying threads where someone asks for the impossible.

I have a Thermaltake cube (?) build that I want to rehouse into a horizontal case for a TV console stand.
I've removed the GPU which is no longer required.

I'm assuming the existing heatsink will have to be replaced with a low profile cooler.
The PSU is 150mm, so not quite as small as it should be for a small build.

All I'll be doing is watching Video files on the TV. The cpu seems to be doing a fine job with no GPU.

I'm looking for a case that will be as small as possible while accommodating the existing PSU.
MB: MSI MPG z390 gaming edge AC
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 550 G3, 80 Plus GOLD 550W
85mm (H) x 150mm (W) x 150mm (L)
Cooler: CRYORIG M9i
L87 mm x W102 mm x H124.6 mm

Cheers!

 
I've been looking for small ATX cases recently. They aren't horizontal ones but the Coolermaster can be used on it's side.

The smallest I've found are:

Jonsbo U4 Plus 205MM (W) * 395MM (D) * 391MM (H)
Jonsbo U4 Pro 205mm (W) * 395mm (D) * 426mm (H)
Coolermaster MasterBox Q500L 386 (L) x 230 (W) x 381 (H) mm

I think they all take a ATX size PSU but double check first.

If you get one, I'd love to see what you think of it.
 
Jonsbo D31 mesh with or without Screen: your choice. The Fractal north does look good outside a home office/gaming room environment, but may be too big for a build without a GPU.
