Hi guys,

I'm looking for a mini-ITX case that:

Fits long graphics cards.
Supports dual slot cards.
Has or supports an adequate PSU.
Has efficient cooling.
Is under $200.

I would also like to see some that are under $150

The only case that has met these standards that I like is the Cubitek Mini-Tank, Thermaltake Armor A30, and the Silverstone SG07-B

Thanks.

at some point of time I was also considering very seriously building ITX based gaming machine... and I was looking as you so I'm also undecided between LianLi & Silverstone based cases.

you can check these:

and this:

I wanted to build overclocked ITX machine based on P67 but up to now there is no such ITX motherboard,.. though Gigabyte has (very nice) one but on P55...

so I guess depending on your hardware to put inside the case you should choose for a case.
will it be gaming machine with powerfull GPU? if yes, tank & PC-Q08 are to be considered.
otherwise I personally would go with smaller cases.
or if you put really low power stuff (i3 or similar) you can even go with Antec ISK-whatever... it is very very small case :D
