Hi everbody,

I consider to buy one of the following cases to setup a new HTPC:

hec Compucase 7K09 / 7KJ9 / 7KJC
(7K Series Slim Desktop Chassis::HEC COMPUCASE Enterprise Co., Ltd)

Unfortunately there is little to no info about these cases in the forum. Does anybody know one of the mentioned cases and can comment on them?

Thanks in advance

I use the 7K09 in my bedroom, and while it is a bit cramped to work with, and one has to be careful about the length of the optical drive in relation to the CPU cooler, it has been a great case for me thus far.

MB: GIGABYTE GA-E7AUM-DS2H LGA 775 NVIDIA GeForce 9400 HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
RAM: A-DATA 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model ADQVE1B16K - Retail
CPU: Intel Pentium E2180 Allendale 2.0GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor Model BX80557E2180 - Retail
DVD: LG Black Blu-ray/HD DVD-ROM & 16X DVD±R DVD Burner SATA Model GGC-H20L - Retail
HDD: 300GB I had extra from a different build

Haven't had any heat issues, I used the stock cooler on the CPU with some AS5. Didn't have a problem with the optical drive, either. I am actually looking at the 7KJ9 for use in my living room with the MSI Media Live! MB and Hauppauge HVR-2250 TV-Tuner card, but I don't know if they'll all fit.
