I'm looking for an ATX case with the PSU mount on the bottom of the case. So far I've only been able to find two cases with that kind of configuration. The ABS Nighthawk, which was found on newegg, but for some reason is no longer for sale :think: ; and the Antec 900, but most of the reviews mentioned some serious clearance issues within the case. So I'm pretty much at a loss for what to do. Anyone have any Ideas ?:?

Ideas?

Cut a new hole at the bottom of a case you like and move the power supply other bits around.

I believe a few Lian-Li cases have this setup. Check here (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?Submit=ENE&N=0+2010090007&Subcategory=&description=Lian-Li&Ntk=all&srchInDesc=).

Yeah, theres some Lian-li cases like that. THe one im looking at actually has room for 2 PSU's/ My only question is if dual 8800s can fit in there... :devious:

Dual PSUs? I take it this is a full tower?

Then yes, I'm guessing dual 8800s will fit too.

No problem man.

So, did you decide on a case? If so, which one?

The Silverstone ones and the Lian-Li's get very expensive. I know that Silverstone plans on making PC cases that will accomodate lower price ranges. So if you don't plan on doing anything soon, you could wait for that to come out. If not, then get the Lian-Li or the Antec.

There are no clearance issues with the Antec 900 that I am aware of.

I know 1 person running two (2) 8800 GTS in an SLI config.
I also know 2 people (husband and wife team gamers) who are each running 8800 GTX (her single / him dual) with no problems.

I think I'm gonna go with the Antec P180; although that could change. I'm in Iraq right now so its gonna be a good six months or so before I get back to the states and can start building. I'm just trying to plan ahead.
