Spec me a Mini ITX or Micro ATX Case Please

Hi,

Can somebody point me in the right direction please. Been on this for days now and cant see a case that fits my needs.

Mini ITX or Micro ATX small case, no more than 3300mm wide and 360mm high.
Will fit in the Asus R9 390 Strix GPU

Was looking at the Carbide 240 but the GPU is too big
Was thinking of the Phantek Enthoo Evolv ITX but the graphivs is only 5mm off the metal that houses the PSU and cooling is rubbish with my GOU apparently.

Any help really appreciated.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. What graphics cars do you have in yours? How it sits in the case looks like there wouldn't be airflow?

I've had both a 6950 andf a R9 270x in there, no issues with temps at all. There are 2 fan spaces above the card (it comes populated with one intake fan)

It's worth looking at this video

I've just completed a build with this case:

Excellent case very easy to work with and it looks great.

Hi,

Do you have a graphics card in? If so which one? Do you find it runs hot/hotter than before?

Thermaltake Core V1 for £35

I love the case, much better than the TT of old. ITX but I have a 6600K and R9 280 in it.

Finishing it off later and will put some build pics up.

Edit: Not sure about a 390, if its bigger than a Sapphire 4GB 2Fan 380, then it won't fit.

Won't fit as the graphics card is too long. Already have the core v1 snow edition currently and agree it is a good case but poor for cable management.
