I only need 1 hard drive - maybe 2...
I only need 1 optical drive tops...
So why aren't there any options for a chassis that's not a micro ATX or smaller that offers better cooling and room for an ATX motherboard, decent GPU, and power supply?
What about an all black brushed aluminum chassis for starters?
How bout bigger fans in the front running at lower speeds for silence? (Why is everything still 120 or 140?)
Maybe a window on the side to show off my stuff?
Make it squatty but not a box just so you can can easily have space for a decent cooler with cable management.
I'm not an engineer, but it seems that this would make for a well cooled smaller space. Think 240 - 250mm wide but maybe only 350-400 in length and enough height for the power supply, mobo, and optical to be on top of each other. I've built into the Silverstone TJ08-E and I think they have the right idea but I need that just windowed and bigger. I like the TJ04-E but without all the drive space up front. The new Raven case with its 2 AP fans is also the right idea but needs to be scaled down.
I've mentioned SIlverstone here, but I've looked at Lian Li, Corsair, Cooler Master, Fractal Design, NZXT, etc. and still none of them have grasped this concept.
My future components will be:
1150 ATX board with 4670K Haswell
GTX 770
750W power
1 250GB SSD
1 optical AND THATS IT!!!!
Thought's, comments? Someone to build me this case and make millions off it? Go right ahead!
