Question Wanted: microATX case/cube case

I was wondering if anyone may have a small cube-ish case I may purchase. I was hoping for something similar to the Falcon Fragbox, atleast in structure/shape. http://www.falcon-nw.com/fragbox.asp


If not, I could really go for a server-cube case (like this Yeong Yang Sever cube, for example)

Thanx! PimpRig Roxx!

Shuttle's XPCs are made in that fashion, they come barebone. I'd just go with that.

Take a look at this. It's a mini cube ATX server case, like you asked. Duplex, he want's a mATX case, not a Shuttle barebone. I think he knows what he wants.

Both of you are right, actually. I was looking at shuttle barebones, but I really don't have the two hundred dollars for them. Nor the 180 for that cube at Directron. Any cube-ish case will do, really.
Oh well, perhaps I'll get lucky on eBay...

most cases I've seen for mATX are just minitowers. Don't see many cubes for mATX. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...129-146&depa=1 might be your best bet if you can swing it.

Check out a review that will be up on this site within the next couple of days. It is a very sweet case and sounds like what you are looking for. But, I will not let the cat out of the bag before it's posted.

That case is a Chyang-Fun S868A that you're unlikely to find now, but similar models are sold by AMS, FIC and others. I have a combination between the Chyang-Fun and FIC models in my BOOMbox thread, but it's not for sale. If you do decide to get one of these, keep in mind it will need some help with cooling. Hot running little sucker, but as powerful as a tower if you can tame that. You can build a replica of that Fragbox for about $400 less if you shop wisely. Good luck with finding one, and if you do, PM me and I can tell you all I know about them.
