Hey guys,
I have for a long periode og time now, wanted a new new case, same hight as i have now, but abit wider and psu at the buttom.
I have a list of things i want from a case that im throwing money after.
PSU at buttom
Nothing in the side panels. No wholes for fans, no air pass threw.
ATX case
Simpel
Pref. black.
120mm rear fan mount
This is the only case i have found that comes closet to what i am looking for.

But its not wide enough.
I want the width due to the H70 not being able to sit in the "standard" cases we have these days with the rear 120mm fan spot, being used for it.
I have there for started to look into Cube cases, but i live in a country where Cube'ed is somthing that appears to be non exsistant.
I have only found a picture of what i would be looking for in a cube case, somthing like this, without window mods.

Anyone know the name of this case? Places to buy in Europe?
I hope you guys can help me find the right cse for me, and i look forward to surgestions. But please, please, please try and stick to the list of things wanted.

Have you looked at the Bitfenix cases? The Shinobi (http://www.bitfenix.com/global/en/products/chassis/shinobi/) or Survivor (http://www.bitfenix.com/global/en/products/chassis/survivor/) case might work for you :)

They are too slim, its the 120mm fam at the back, i need more width, from there and to the case side.

try that, my friend has one, doesnt even use an aftermarket fan with his intel w3550 xeon and it runs quiet and cool, only issue was he used pc mobo standoffs to offset the mobo so it wouldnt hit the goddamn motherboard, the psu mounts up front, and sucks air from the back and blows out front.

Mini Tower is too small.
Average size case, big tower, if it suits my style, but im really hooked on finding out what the cube case is called and where i can get it.
Ive really been intrigued but the H2Go that Mountain Mods produces: http://www.mountainmods.com/computer-cases-h2go-c-21_81.html
the tower will eat a full atx motherboard, compatibility is good, enough room to take full length video cards... its not a *small case* its just shorter than most cases, due to the PSU being mounted up front. its a very nicely laid out case

They look great for a hardcore system, but im not 15 anymore, and i dont need 4/5 blue led fans in the front. I would actually prefer a minimal amount of fans.
Nobody knows anything about the cube case i posted a picture off?

Had not noticed the front mounted PSU, nice idea, but i still like to have a tover that somhow still dominates wheres its placed.
I have thought about plexi glass cube case, but then i re-think it, and i doubt its somthing i would really want, gotta clean it every week :P
There's a multitude of mid towers that will fit an H70 with 120mm rear exhaust fans. I don't know if I'm misunderstanding your question or what. You definitely don't need a full tower for that.

Yeah theres loads of mid cases that JUST fit it. But i want to make a window mod, and with this, it wont fit.
This is a Lancool k62. Do you think this "just fits"?

I still think its just not enough space for my what im looking to do.
I had a look at the Fractual Design XL. I think its the case im going to take a look at.
At first I really liked the Fractal case but after 3 builds using it I think it's kinda cheesy.
This is what happened after shipping one.

Shipping? I spoke to a friend that had a pc shipped from USA to Spain, same happend, but like he said, its stupid not to stuff it with cloths or somthing before shipping. Anyway, my case doesnt move much, so not that big of an issue.
I took a long look at the Lancool K-62, in itself, its seems like the case is built for function mainly. Theres things i like, and things i dont like about that case.

How much does this beauty run? I don't think i could convince myself not to dump my i7 into it if it was under $150!
