PSU and chassis query

[vampm]

First, for this case: Apex MJ-16 Steel. It uses sfx psu. Can I use a normal atx psu in this case, and in every case that says sfx psu?

If not, can you suggest a tower that can support:

matx mobo
atx psu
one vertical 5.25 bay
internal 2-3 hdd bay
4 expansion slots (full size)
?

i dont believe in cheap cases

something like this would be great

or this if you want to save a few bucks

It must have vertical the 5.25 bay, or else the cases ar somehow "fat"

 

[TheBigTroll]

how do they look fat? there are very few cases with vertical mounts. and even fewer with good build quality. apex is junk from what most people say

 

[vampm]

Yeap, they are hard to find, especialy with these parameters (vertical 5.25 and atx/12v psu)

I found those two, but I cant find details about the psu..

Anyone any ideas?? Where can I find hp or acerl cases? These brands dont sell cases seperately, but whole pcs, so I wonder if I can find some cases only..

 

[TheBigTroll]

nope. good luck. just get a small case like the fractal core 1000 and call it a day. and if its a vertical optical bay, you will have to get a slot loading burner since the standard is designed for regular horizontal use

I've just fine a case for you but bad news is being discontinued

Is the cooler Master Elite 360
2 HDD bays, 2 Vertical 5.25 drive, ATX PSU support and 7 expansion slots.

Maybe you can found it in some stores or ebay.

EDIT

There is an updated model of this case
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119262 Cooler Master Elite 361

Just a case, fits ATX PSU, 7 Expansion Slots, fits ATX and Micro-ATX and up to 4 HDD bays.

Hope it helps
