My GF is finally getting her own rig sorted, so I can have my old one back... It's a fairly mediocre spec - but I could bung a blueray drive in it and get it setup with my TV for giggles. The case I'm looking at bunging it all into is the coolermaster elite 360, but I am open to alternatives if anyone has suggestions. It needs to be small enough to fit into my TV cabinet, subtle enough to 'fit in' with an xbox360 and skyhd box - and big enough to fit in an ATX setup.

My major concern is the 3D card.. it's a powercolor 4730:

I'll get some exact dimensions of the card when I see my biatch at the weekend, but it's a bit of a beefer considering it's small cooler (by todays standards).

As for my cabinet, the case will need to be of horizontal orientation (the coolermaster one here can do either) - and needs to be no taller than 180mm, and no deeper than 450mm. Width isn't much of an issue, within reason!

If someone has dealt with one of these cases, how is it for internal space? I'll happily downsize to a crappy CPU cooler to make some room - and would possibly downsize 3D card too, but I'd much rather find a case that'll squeeze it all in, so recommend away!

Bet you that case is shit, I had one VERY similar and everything kept over heating as there was no airflow.
