So I have decided it is time for an upgrade, I currently have everything house in an ANTEC P180 which I have honestly had for time, but I want something a little smaller, but with good airflow (mesh front).

My motherboard is a MSI Tomahawk Max II so it will need to be ATX sized, but smaller the better. Not really sure what are the go to brand for cases these days. Really dont want a window as its never been my thing, but have noticed it seems to be nearly every case on the market has them.

Budget is ~£100

TIA
 
Smallest ATX supporting case I found was the Raijintek Thetis. I was going to also recommend a Lian Li O11 Mini but you need a SFX PSU and more importantly, it's basically one big window haha.

Heres a link to the Thetis, comes in black too: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/raij...aluminium-atx-cube-case-silver-ca-03d-rt.html

For ATX, these are ever popular:

All come in black and white variants and also, you can get solid side panels for most.

If you really want to go small, be like me and source a NCASE M1 - sell all your ATX parts and join the SFF army :D.
 
Thanks for that, from looking yesterday I really like the look of the Fractal Meshify one, and its definitely a lot smaller than what I am used too :D also I like the mesh front for airflow.

I think my next PC build will be going SFF, but I have literally just bought my latest mobo & cpu so not anytime soon :p
