M-ATX case suggestions

it's why i'm on the forum asking around, the only other option i can think of is the CaseLabs Bullet BH4 and there on amazon for £189.99

You can also check Bestcases.eu, they sell the BH4. It's not a 90 degree motherboard, so it doesn't really meet that requirement, but if you're willing to forego the 90 degree mounting it's a great little case (no bias, I promise, lol).

There's been a patent by Silverstone on the 90 Degree rotation, and I've heard rumor that it may have expired or is expiring in certain countries. That's really the reason you didn't/don't see many cases with that orientation from anyone else.

No worries man. It reviewed very very well. It's basically about as good as an air cooling case can be tbh.

Edit. HMM, according to the listing on Amazon it's actually silver. It looks white :S

Yup deffo silver. Shame :(

i did see there selling them via their facebook site but after taxes and/or VAT of 19% as well as shipping then there is customs fees the price goes up to the point where is would be cheaper to buy from the US, but on amazon.co.uk it's afordable

oh i did look and see the white one, looking into away i could ad a bigger side window and a way to cover the cable. as for the PSU i'm still using my HX1000i (yeah i know it's stupidly OTT but i have it here and will sell if and get a smaller one)

It's ok to be biased when you make phenomenal cases, confidence in your stuff is a good thing:p
 
I know they're older cases and have been done to death but the Bitfenix Prodigy might be worth a look for a horizontal mount.
 
Yeah he wants white though. I thought the Fortress was white, absolutely terrible pics on Amazon tbh.
 
The CaseLabs Bullet BH4 all day every day.

CaseLabs far better build quality at least you know with CaseLabs none of their cases are built in China.

Ah my bad, I only saw the mention of white when Tom was talking about the Fractal Define.

I'm sure the Chinese can rivet/screw some metal sheets together just fine. In fact some of the Jonsbo cases look rather nice.

I can totally vouch for Jonsbo tbh. I had one of their cases and it was gorgeous. Every bit as good as an Apple case.

I swear some people can't read post correctly.....lol

I can read posts just fine, even with your constant grammatical errors, which is how I picked up on the fact that you attribute "built in China" to automatically translate to inferior build quality.
Any way you dress that up it's casual racism.
 
thank you all for the suggestions just got the mobo in the air 540 as a temp case (looks really out of place like a goth in the sun :P )

as for the case i'm really like the Silverstone FT03B to the point of doing a tardis paint job for lols

can't thank you all enough for the help.
