[QUOTE="sheepdisease, post: 1150622, member: 154759"] Hello there, my amplifier is 171 mm (H): 435 mm (W): 393 mm (D) and I am looking for a HTPC case which is a similar width and depth to fit in an AV rack I am going to make in a space in the lounge. The catch is that I am looking to use existing hardware and the hardware is rather large, as this will be used for gaming as well. Existing case and hardware: Manufacturer: Cooler Master Motherboard Form Factor: ATX Micro ATX Front/ Side/ Top Panel: 1 x Headphone 1 x Mic In 2 x USB 2.0 1 x eSata 1 x IEEE 1394 Drive Bays: 5 x 3.5" Internal 2 x 5.25" External Expansion Slots: 7 Fan Bays: 5 x 120mm 2 x 140mm Window: Yes Power Supply Form Factor: ATX CPU Cooler Dimensions: "Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus (Socket 1155) 79.7 x 158.5 x 120 mm (WxHxD mm)" VGA Card Length: "MSI ATI Radeon HD 6950 OC Twin FrozR III Power Edition 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express 116 x 39 x 270 mm (WxHxD mm) Double slot" Dimensions: 213 x 482 x 525 mm (WxHxD mm) Colour: Black What cases have space for two optical drives, a card reader on the front, which might accept the CPU cooler whilst accommodating all the other hardware? Would Silverstone LaScala LC17 Rackmount be a contender? If so, I would expect to also purchase the following: [LIST] [*] A new CPU cooler because my existing one is massive and likely will not fit in the case with all my other required hardware, I was thinking of something like Prolimatech 48 CPU Cooler 92mm, but I cannot find another suitable substitute as this one is not in stock anywhere now (please advise) [*] ARCTIC F8 PRO PWM PST - 80mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing Low Noise PWM Controlled Case Fan with PWM Sharing Technology (PST) Feature & Anti-Vibration System £3.49 [*] ARCTIC F9 PRO PWM PST - 92mm Fluid Dynamic Bearing Low Noise PWM Controlled Case Fan with PWM Sharing Technology (PST) Feature & Anti-Vibration System £4.68 [*] Arctic Silver 5 3.5g Thermal Paste and Arcticlean value pack £11.95 [*] CSL - 3.5" All-in-One USB 3.0 (super speed) Hub USB 2.0 Card Reader + eSATA / Multifunctional Panel / SD / SDHC / Mini SDHC / Micro SDHC / USB / XD / CF/MD £11.35 [*] Pioneer BDR-209DBK 16x SATA Internal BD/DVD/CD Burner - No Software £57.99 [*] Crucial BX100 2.5-inch SATA III Internal Solid State Drive - 250 GB £62.49 [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
