-  * Silverstone Milo ML11 - 10.5ish L+  * Silverstone Milo ML11 - 10.5ish L - might be worth an upgrade; rising it by 1 - 2 cm would allow for an SFX PSU, regular sized GPUs, and also an AIO (eg. the Silverstone Vida 240)
   * Inter-Tech S-301 - 8.55L   * Inter-Tech S-301 - 8.55L

-  * Jonsbo V9 - 19L, could be a cut + crop candidate, would allow reducing its width down to 154 mm (regular width: 238 mm), ie. you cut away the part where the (ATX!) PSU would reside, and use an SFX/SFX-L, Flex or U1 PSU in the case front+  * Jonsbo V4 - 19L, could be a cut + crop candidate, would allow reducing its width down to 154 mm (regular width: 238 mm), ie. you cut away the part where the (ATX!) PSU would reside, and use an SFX/SFX-L, Flex or U1 PSU in the case front 
 +  * NR200(P) - 19ish - official numbers range from 19 to 20L, depending on what parts are included into the calculation (eg. feet); allows for mATX mounts, either printed or just made from scratch using metal or wood, with SFX PSU located to the front only (similar to how its done in the SAMA IM01); in theory, parts and assets for the SAMA IM01 should fit in the NR200 and vice-versa

   * Jonsbo C6 - looks nice on the first and second glance, but is being reported as a nasty hot box, ie. removing the panels results in great temps, but with panels chokes the CPU and also the GPU   * Jonsbo C6 - looks nice on the first and second glance, but is being reported as a nasty hot box, ie. removing the panels results in great temps, but with panels chokes the CPU and also the GPU
   * Raijintek Metis - could been a candidate for smaller sized mATX boards, but its being reported as a nasty hot box, too, which will only get better if you heartily add a few more openings   * Raijintek Metis - could been a candidate for smaller sized mATX boards, but its being reported as a nasty hot box, too, which will only get better if you heartily add a few more openings

   * numerous cheap 21 - 25ish L cases; those are all nice n dandy, but you cant really modify them enough to be worthwhile, for one, because of their build quality, which is mostly very thin wobbly steel, and also, because the result after cutting would need much more effort to really make it shine. Another topic is their internal structure, because they tend to have the PSU location on top, ie. extremely outdated design, which you'd either have to cut away or fill with a panel of sorts   * numerous cheap 21 - 25ish L cases; those are all nice n dandy, but you cant really modify them enough to be worthwhile, for one, because of their build quality, which is mostly very thin wobbly steel, and also, because the result after cutting would need much more effort to really make it shine.
