Thought I’d just move this chat out of the shoutbox as there is likely more to be had
I’m looking for a case (ideally micro ATX) that is strong and can be taken on a flight as cabin luggage. At a minimum the case should be able to accommodate a full length double width gpu like a GTX 780. I’d love to have another slot ot two free which is why I’d prefer mATX.
I think quite a few people have similar needs so gathering recommendations should be useful.
The Bitfenix Prodigy M appeals to me as it can take mATX boards, and has tough handles on bottom and top which will make it easy to carry and protect it. At (250 x 404 x 359mm) it is not far off double the size of the 304 though and possibly a little too big for carry on http://www.bitfenix.com/global/en/products/chassis/prodigy-m#specs
a friend of mine bought both, the fractal and the prodigy. while the fractal is fully metal , the prodigy is cheap plastic in parts and far from sturdy.
it isn’t bullet-proof, for sure.
I found it is smallest size for 2 slot Graphic Card and it’s light (hand luggage)
good airflow, much better then shuttle PC
and you can find some big camera bags in photo equipment avoiding making your custom bag
Yeah takes Mirco ATX boards which is very nice considering size. Also has a little expansion zone extraction fan which looks good. More pictures and full spec here http://silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=196&area=en
