Ok, I'm looking for something a bit different here...

As we can see I already have a lovely K62 :)

However, I feel like doing a mini-case mod kind of thing.

Not wanting to ruin the K62, I thought I might try a little project just modding a case, and maybe going from there...

This does however mean I'm looking for a case to try this out on!

I'm looking for something fairly small, but not too small, I looked into the idea of SFF, but am not so sure! Really I want something with the measurements below or smaller

400mm D
400mm H
200mm W

With a few simple features:

Preferably ATX supported motherboards
Reasonable use of size so you could fit a basic rig in to it (maybe even xfire low end ATI GPU's)
A space behind the motherboard tray so I can at least try cable management!
Reasonable quality

I'm looking for a fairly basic project, with next to no actual drill/dremel use, but maybe a simple paint and fan modifications!

Budget is a Maximum of £40, but am more than happy to pick up something second hand so off the MM/Bay. In fact to be honest, I'm expecting to have to go second hand to get a reasonable quality with these features included...

I was looking at the possibility of a SG03 but these (with delivery are more around £60) and also don't think they quite meet all the requirements above!

Get your thinking caps on people! :)

Hmm, will have a better look into it, I did see this on the possibles, but was wondering if this would be plagued by the QC issues going around Fractal atm....

Foxconn make some nice little cases for around your price range.
Foxconn TLM397SB
Cheep and cheerfull, but reasonable quality for the price.
