I'm looking for an ATX HTPC or desktop style case with a 120mm rear exhaust fan, at least (2) external 5.25", (1) external 3.5", (2) internal 3.5" bays and can fit a Xigmatek Gaia tower cooler. Does such a beast even exist?

Silverstone LC-03.

Only problem is it is 2*80mm rear exhaust.

That thing is a beast on its own, let alone if you tried to put a 120mm exhaust in there

Yes, I found several cases like that, with the 80mm rear exhaust. The 120mm fan is really a deal breaker. I'd be more willing to give up 1 of the external drive bays.

The Antec is also a nice case but has only one external drive bay.

Silverstone CW02 has a 12cm exhaust but only one external bay:

Lian Li PC-C32 has dual bays and 2x internal 12cm fans:

The latter might otherwise be what you're looking for but the Xigmatek Gaia won't fit.

Why.?
