Case for mATX build?
What case should I use to build a mATX PC? It's getting a Freezer 7 Pro and an X1950PRO in it so that might require a bit of space.....
I like the LANBox cases, and I don't like the X-QPack b/c of the bad things I have heard about them. Thanks |

What kind of case do you like? A small tower or a cubey case? And what's your upper budget limit? The TT lanbox is good..but it's also HUGE compared to other SFF matx cases. It's 17" deep! (the p180 is only 20").
Personally I think you should spend more money buying a nice small matx case, as the cheaper ones tend to have crappy build quality and will be extremely hard to work with. Silverstone's sugo series (SG01/2/3) is very nice, and so is Lian Li's cube cases.
