Xigmatek Octans EN6312 Black Steel/Plastic Mini-ITX Mini Tower Computer Case EN6312

I owned the Silverstone SG05 before this, but I needed to fit in a longer graphics card hence I bought this out of so many alternatives.First thing first, there were no screws in the packaging at all, I was horrified. Luckily my local distributor had a buffer set which I had to purchase, so I was fine sort of.One of the few problems I think you would encounter will be placing your usb3 header and your audio header. However, that will also be depending on what kind of motherboard layout you have.Next, I didn't like how all the harddrives were mounted everywhere. I purchase a 2x2.5" hard disk converter into the 5.25" bay, yes it is there, due to the recycling of the Xigmatek ERIS case.Lastly, if you do not have a sfx psu like mine, you will probably risk the cables go over the ram slots which makes it impossible to install the rams afterwards.On a side note, I replaced the default 80mm fan to a Xigmatek XAF 120mm fan as intake from the top. I wanted to make it as exhaust but it was making whining noises, changing the orientation fixed it .Overall, I love the look of the case. I intentionally removed the side cover to display my graphics card and it still looks good!My specifications:Intel E3-1230v2Gigabyte H77N-WIFICrucial Ballistix Sports VLP 16gbGigabyte R9 280X WindForceCrucial M4 256GBHGST 1TB 2.5"Xigmatek JanusSilverstone SX600-G

I expect this to be the first entry of several on this build using this case. I waited a long time for amazon to get stock in. It arrived this past weekend and I tore in to my assembly and started my build. The first roadbump was hit pretty quickly, The case is a front loaded psu design...no big deal I have dealt with that before on previous build. However, the depth allowed before you get to the motherboard standoffs where pretty close. So I decided to go ahead and dry fit my Seasonic 650 watt fully modular psu and see what I could get going...yep, hit a wall, actually what I hit was a psu that wasn't very large that was not going to fit in this "shoebox" The case does comes with an adaptor that allows the psu to hang a few inches out the front before pushing the plastic cover back on, but I was probably a good .75 inches from making that work. Thus I have ordered a SFX form factor psu to put in this build....I am still excited about this build just a word to other builders check the dimensions of your ATX power supply before you run towards this build. I will continue to comment as the build continues. This will be my 15th build this past year (2014-2015) all mini ITX chasis... this case is best challenge thus far.
