Hi,

I'm trying to put together a really small, lower power system for everyday non-gaming use based on a MATX motherboard and a Core Duo or Turion64 cpu.

I am, however, struggling to find a suitable case for this. I'd like it to be a desktop case and as small as possible. I won't be using any expansion cards or optical drives, just one hard disk (maybe a small laptop style one). Also, I would be happy with one of those external DC power supplies but I don't really mind.

All the cases I have found so far are either thin and really wide (43cm) or big and boxy cube ones.

My favourite so far is the Silverstone Sugo but I would prefer something a bit smaller (and less expensive if possible unless it comes with a power supply).

Any suggestions? Thanks.
 
Silverstone sst ? or maybe one of the hoojum cases, cant get much smaller than that and still look good

most of the empty matx/itx cases tend to look like large heatsinks for some reason, bit of a gap in the market albeit a small one :D
 
Thanks for the replies.

Minuet II and Silverstone SST are lovely cases and I was considering them but they are bit too wide for my liking. I like the width of the Sugo.

Those Hoojum cases looked perfect but I don't think they accept MATX motherboards do they?
