Need a VERY small case for my ATX build

rhsnipes · Jul 25, 2016

I just moved into a smaller living space and my NZXT Phantom is hogging precious real estate. The case has more empty air than it has circuitry. My components stay super cool at like 30-50 degree range. I want to replace the case with something aesthetically robotic and compact. I have a normal ATX board, a 120mm cpu fan, and a 282mm GPU.

I was looking at these:

[strike]I would like to buy from newegg that way my computer part order history can be all in one place. [/strike]Any help and I would be grateful!

A 'small' ATX case is a tough find really.

I see this Rosewill I5-397. It's very similar in height & width as the AeroCool you linked, but it's >1" deeper.

Obviously, discard the 'included' PSU.

Thanks for the help. I think It's nice to bounce an idea off of someone, really helps. I'm going to get the Riotoro. The rose will looks to be a sweet price point for solid design, only a little basic.. aesthetically. I'd like to have a open air case if it could be small.

I like how a build can look almost like an electric metropolis!
