Smaller/Lighter Case?

[Loser777]

Well seeing as I'm going to be replacing my PSU soon which is going to require a major overhaul of my system... (I have cable management done perfectly...) I am considering also buying another case to replace the Antec 900 that I was forced to buy -.-".
I would have preferred a case that was much lighter and easier to carry around for LANs...

Any suggestions in mind? I would like something that wasn't so bulky and awkward... it feels like something is going to break every time I move it because it's so heavy and plasticity. I'm interested in non-tower ATX cases, as those seem to be the most mobile, but I'm not sure if my 9800GX2 will fit...

Well, anyone know anything about the TJ-04? It looks really nice though I'm not sure my 9800GX2 will fit... is is possible to mount a hard drive in a 3.5" external bay?
I prefer the more minimalistic look.

I think a Lian-li mid tower form factor case would suit your needs very well. Its super light and definitely has enough room for your stuff

specifically look at the PC-9, the PC-7F(W), and the A17

Nice, the PC-7F looks really sexy.

Nice, the PC-7F looks really sexy.

indeed it does, a very nice aesthetic revision of the classic midtower that was always so functional in the past.

when you hold one in your hand you will be amazed at how light it is, you could play catch across the room with it

how do you like the lian li a-05b?? it's a nice small case with standard atx support, and it's really low, but very deep, so your 9800gx2 will fit

lian li v1000 plus see my avatar

[SNiiPE_DoGG]

dont get me wrong, I love the v1000, but it is by no means a Light case, especially with its ridiculously thick metal construction. (it is a tank, I weigh 165lbs and I can jump up and down on mine literally)

That looks really good, but the upside down mobo tray makes me nauseated...
Hopefully I can adjust to that.

[Loser777]

Wow, all of those look really good though none of them have side panels?? I want to add some lighting this time since I didn't get to do so with my last build.

[Loser777]

Ugh, the TJ08 was looking pretty promising, but so far there's nothing that skims the line between mATX and ATX with a nice window.

Here is a couple of side panels for the pc-7F. Newegg

[Loser777]

Yeah, saw those, I was hoping there were windows for the A05...
Also stumbled on this, but doesn't look like my GX2 will fit...
