QUOTE(moderno @ Jun 23 2007, 11:16 PM) it's a little hard to ask for a casing that are spacious enough to hold 3 x 120mm radiator and in the same time light for hand carry of course those cases are spacious enough to hold 3x120mm radiator.. for a spacious case...i can only think of cooler master stacker or silverstone TJ07 / TJ09  but to be handy and durable to carry around...  |

QUOTE(chyu89 @ Aug 7 2008, 07:27 PM) I though HTPC is meant to be compact? and u want spacious? haha by spacious, i mean not too cramped, and it can hold at least 3 HDDs becoz most slim case can only support up to 2 HDDs only |

QUOTE(hypermax @ Aug 7 2008, 08:57 PM) I think you better get a small ATX size casing eg Lian Li PC-05. Cooling is definitely good, and more room for expansion. er, i dun think that PC-05 is small..after all, the size is almost same with my previous PC-G7..Other options: CS238 FULL ALUMINIUM HTPC CHASSIS Link Can fit 4 hdd (5 if you can find the converter), also the cooling is superb, as well as the built quality (4mm thick aluminum) but the 2nd choice is nice..hope it wont be too cramped.. any other choices? if possible, i prefer alu rather than secc  |
