Hi Guys, I been visiting this site for years and have used many of your recommendations for building systems. I currently own 5 Antec cases, the latest one being the Fusion version of this case. (I got a good deal on it). So my quest begins, to try and make this as quiet as possible, it will be used...

I just don't think many of the designs I see are very well thought out. I get the impression that case manufacturers don't want to make products that they believe are too niche. If they only specify the use of a single 2.5 hdd and a slot loading odd, that will only accomodate a dc/dc type psu then ...

I have been on a quest to find a slim HTPC case to replace my original Antec Fusion 430. I have literally been looking for months... There are plenty of slim cases out there, but none that have good airflow and can be cooled quietly... The 2 HTPC motherboards I'm considering are the Gigabyte GA-E7AU...
