right my prodigy is doing my head in! The impact board doesn't line up with it properly, and its started to warp and all sorts. i wanna change cases but keep it small, not that the bitfenix is small but you know what i mean.... :rolleyes:

what's out there i want something with a decent layout and has be able to house a full size psu and my 780 classy, which is huge!

if not, then i may have to invest in a 350D and a mATX board of some sort:huh:
 
The Fractal seems the best option!

Didnt know Corsair was planning on making a itx case, but suppose Tom cant confirm due to NDA's and all that jazz

That Aerocool case looks awesome!! might look into that, shame they didnt stealth the front panel

The Areocool is m-ITX and m-ATX, the build quality on them is pretty good though. Bitfenix are just as cheap in quality department as Areocool, just Bitfenix is more well known.

Hmeh, at least on the Bitfenix cases there's not much that can break. I've never had a Bitfenix case where the fan controller knob just fell off or the side panel mesh random fell out while removing the side panel :lol:

Maybe my past experience with them is just the reason I don't like Aerocool now (except for the Shark fans).

Thought OP would prefer an ITX case though, as mATX is going to be a fair bit bigger and it saves him from buying a new motherboard as well.

I'd say get the Node 304/ Elite 130 or wait for Corsair to see if they make their move into the ITX case market soon.

It's a ITX and MATX case dude, not ATX.

I was just throwing it out there as an option. He said that his mobo doesn't fit properly in the Prodigy which is ITX, so the reason I mentioned it is because the AroeCool is both ITX and MATX so he wouldn't have problems with his mobo fitting.
It also fits a full size PSU and will have no issues fitting his 780 ACX either.

It's just another option, the other cases mentioned are good options, I was just throwing another one out there. :)

I did mean to put mATX but I forgot the m :p

Pretty much every mATX case also fits ITX boards though.
 
That Xigamtek looks bit too 'alienware' for me, im not going with anymore Bitfenix cases, ive owned 2 cases from them and both of them have build quality problems, maybe i was just unlucky but nah not happening!

Ill wait for Corsair to reveal whatever they have and if not then the Node may be the only way forward
