I need to downsize and quieten my current PC which is built in an Antec 900. I'm looking for a case that will fit in my gtx560 and a hx520 psu and have enough room for a full size dvd drive, a couple of hdd and an ssd, plus a decent cooler for an i5 760. Ideally i'd like one with a remote too and that looks good. Budget of around £100, if that's possible.
 
Not necessarily designed for HTPC

But:
Silverstone TJ08
Lian Li PC V354B
Lian LI PC A04
Silverstone PS07

Or if you're willing to go down to mITX case, a BitFenix Prodigy

Thanks for the suggestions but they're a bit too PC looking, it's got to go in the living room so it needs to to be a case that looks a little more "hi-fi" for want of a better description. Orders of the missus lol.
 
Hmm, thought the v354 might have been the best option for that as a black box basically.

A silver stone ft03 is slightly different. Although probably still doesn't meat your requirements.

Actually, I'd look at anything by silver stone or lian li. They're the most likely to have something that fits the bill.

The Origin stuff is a bit odd... And more htpc, but very expensive..

The GD02 looks good but I'm worried the smaller fans will be louder. The GD 06 looks about right for what I want but what good coolers can I fit in there with a 70mm height?
 
Oh that's cool, thank you, I've never noticed that section in cooling before. Time for some research into coolers I think. Or are there any real stand out coolers in that catagory?
 
ive got one of these..
