Hey guys,

I went through a small casing phase and got myself a Silverstone SG09. It's been a few years now and I think I'm ready to return to my mid tower cases. Small cases are nice when everything is in place, but I got a headache anytime I wanted to upgrade anything. The case was also quite heavy, something I didn't expect for such a small package.

Can anyone recommend me a cable management friendly mid/mini tower casing that's also lightweight? I prefer something with a less striking look, so no Thermaltake cases for me. The Fractal Design ARC Midi R2 suggested above seems quite nice, but according to the website the casing itself is 10.7kg I haven't done extensive research, but the Cooler Master N200 seems to be like a good candidate. It's a bit on the budget side though, so it's lacking some luxury items such as fan filters and toolless installations.

Relevant specs:
mATX size motherboard
160mm long modular PSU
9.5" GPU
2 HDDs, 1 SSD

Pricelist of their sales.

Damn poisonous.. Corsair Air 240 down to RM239

BTW plain21, last time when I wanted to buy the SilverStone SG09 I had to preorder from the distributor via a seller. Try asking people like lingloong whether his distributor is willing to do the same.

Hey everyone,

Would love some suggestions for this one. I'm looking for the smallest casing that supports:

1) mATX
2) Normal size expansion slot (not low profile)
3) Maximum width of 180mm
4) Has one fan intake slot and one exhaust slot (top or rear, NOT side)
5) USB 3.0

The smallest one I've found is the SilverStone PS08 (23.85 litres). Coming in second is the Cooler Master Elite 361 (25.61 litres). Are there any others I might be missing?

If it weren't for the width requirement, I would've just went for smaller SFF casings. If it weren't for the expansion slot requirement, would've went for one of those slim HTPC ones from SilverStone.

Didn't really look into those, just skimmed through. Doesn't seem like they have anything that fits my requirements though the Pandora is slim width wise, but still quite big.
