Hi there,
I am upgrading back to atx from mini itx but i still like the small ish form factor so i'm looking at a Either a Cooler Master Evo or a Corsair air 540. i really like the horizontal mobo placement of the haf but i read that there was issues with getting air to the hard drives, i think there is a way to fix it but im not sure. on the other hand the air 540 has great airflow but the second chamber has unused potential that could house more 3.5' drives but could also be modded in. i would like to have the mobo horizontal but with the air 540 it would be a little wide.

the one in the video only has 2 3.5" drive bays but there is a different version that has 4
