Best Small Form-Factor PC Case?

2018-4-12 11:23:33

Building an HTPC? Or maybe you just want to build a new system but you don’t want it to take up a ton of space or look like a monolith under your desk? If that’s the case, you might need a smaller form factor, perhaps something that’s Mini-ITX or Micro-ATX, and a case to match. This week we want to hear about which of those smaller, more elegant Micro ATX Cases. We recognize that not everyone wants a huge, full-sized tower, and when we last asked you for the best computer cases, the contenders were all towers with plenty of airflow, space to move around, expansion bays, and more. This week we want to take a different approach. We want to know which cases you think are the best for someone building an HTPC, a Hackintosh, or any workstation that doesn’t have to be a huge high-end rig. Leave your nominations in the discussions below! 

The call for contenders is closed! To see which of your nominees made it to the top five, head over to our Hive Five feature and cast your vote for the all-out winner!
