The Search for an HTPC/Server case


PCSarge

Recommended Posts

is there anything someone makes that isnt $300 and will fit a 2 Socket ATX server board with 92MM noctua coolers. cause silverstones HTPC cases are rediculous in price.

 

im going to be asked why not use a tower, simply because it is to go on a shelf under my corner end table in the living room, and needs to lay flat.
