I maybe will build an everyday-use PC with pretty basic set-up like a m-ATX board, have standard desktop HDD and optical drive. But now I have no idea at all about HTPC/small casing that suitable. One thing I noticed is, such kind of casing usually cost a lot. So I want to know if there any such kind of smaller casing that can fits all those components, as well as:

- the stock Intel CPU cooler
- not over RM200? sounds hard?

Another concern is the power supply included, usually I read is like 300W, guess it is enough for something like i3 2100, right? Well if I must get rid of those standard sized desktop optical drive and HDD, I can go for notebook HDD and slim-sized optical drive too (but I don't know the price range for such kind of optical drive).

It doesn't matter in material, aluminium, steel, or acrylic also acceptable. Of course, it's best if it even got space for a cheap basic graphic card too if I decide to put in one. So, any idea? hmm.gif
