I currently have a Silver Arrow SB-E Extreme cooler and Corsair TX850 V1 PSU in my current rig.
Can someone help me find a mini-ITX case and a mini-ITX Z87 motherboard that would let me fit those without needing to buy new stuff? Being able to reuse them would save me about $200-250 in Japan.
I originally wanted to get the Rog Impact board, but I'm not sure if the daughter board (the sound card) would fit with the cooler. Maybe I will have to settle for the Z87I-Pro instead. None of the other Mini-ITX boards have the CPU socket dead in the middle.
When it comes to the case clearance, it seems the cooler would fit in the Prodigy and the Node 304, but I really need some proof.
Then it is the PSU. The problem with the PSU is that it is non-modular. Actually, I think non-modular is good with these mini-ITX cases, but the problem is that a large number of cables come out of this PSU. (check the attachment)
