I'm looking for a micro mini itx case I can put a r7 260x in along with what power supply you think would be needed.Also cooler suggestions that will fit a suggested board could help. My PSU will be the 95w Kaveri. My main drive is a SSD. 8gbs of 2400mhz ram.

Thanks,
Jason

The case mods are required for adequate cooling and the case's lack of a PCIe slot. Since the "Neutronium3" build MSI has come out with a short gtx-760 card and a gaming motherboard designed for a mini-itx case like this. His solution (albeit a slightly better gpu) required a mod and recombination of two different gpu's (too scary for my experience level at this point).
I'm attempting the build with an optical drive (as I already had one). and a more standard hdd/ssd combination build, as I want to use it for more than just gaming.
Looking now at various case cooling possibilities, as I hate to ruin the nice aesthetics of the LianLi, especially since mine is silver.
If you decide on this case, stay in touch and we can swap notes.

Here's a build log for a pc-q02. I bought the case a while back (not knowing what I was doing at the time) and couldn't use it. Now I see how I can make it work. I love this case. Going to be a difficult one to find soon, as it's no longer listed in LianLi's catelog.
I'll try to find the YouTube video.

Good luck.
