Also wondering if I should be asking this in the Silverstone thread instead since they're all Silverstone casings

Hey guys, I'm torn between the Silverstone TJ08E, SG03 and SG09. I'm leaning most towards the SG09, but all the reviews I've read used modular PSUs and recommend against using a non-modular PSU. I'm currently using a FSP Hexa 500w. Would it fit inside the SG09? Would be cable management be a mess? Other specs include HD 6850/7750 (haven't decided on this), Phenom II 545 and two 3.5" HDDs.

QUOTE(arecheese @ Mar 28 2013, 10:49 PM) Was wondering the same thing! i've recently built a pc in a storm scout 2 but want to shrink it into an sg09. anyone here with this case with normal psu? how's the cable management? i saw on youtube a guy use modular + short set of wires for this case. looked GORGEOUS I decided to go forward with the SG09 + FSP Hexa 500w, and everything fits! It was a bit of a squeeze though. But maybe it was just my amateur cable management skills |

Went through an SFF phase a few years ago and got myself a Silverstone SG09. It's great, as long as you don't decide to upgrade your parts often. I'm starting to dread the process of opening up the case every time now
I've decided to switch back to normal sized casings, but I still prefer something a bit on the small side. Anyone got any suggestions on a mid/mini tower casing with cable management opportunities? Currently eyeing the Cooler Master N200. EDIT: Just saw a review of the Corsair AIR 240. The additional size fixes all the problems I had with the SG09. No funny HDD installation methods and toolless options. That whole case is seriously sexy as well. God damn it. Now I feel like buying one.
