Dual mATX case?

niemion · Feb 12, 2012

Anyone knows a case that can house two mATX motherboards?

Frick · Feb 12, 2012

So you basicly want one of those dual motherboard cases but a bit smaller? I'm fairly certain those don't exist. I could be wrong though.

I've seen ITX+ATX cases but not mATX+mATX

niemion · Feb 12, 2012

Yes, that's what I'm looking for. But if you know any dual ATX cases, thats interesting too.

TRWOV · Feb 12, 2012

This is the ITX+XL(!!!)ATX case I was referring to: http://azzatek.com/csaz-4000.html

IIRC LianLi make's dual board case's also may want to look at MountainMod's and possibly DangerDen :eek:

That was what I was gonna say. They are giant and expensive though, but good.

niemion · Feb 12, 2012

m1dg3t, you have a link?

Frick · Feb 12, 2012

Here's a case from MountainMods.

Ooh, that's a hard one. I was looking for that meself some years ago (in like 2007 or something) and reached the conclusion that I was better off building my own case. It never happened though.

Thanks.

Portable dual (m)ATX case anyone?

m1dg3t · Feb 14, 2012

Unfortunately the market is EXTREMELY slim and i think the only option's are what i suggested earlier. If none of them satisfy your need's you may need to build your own, or ask MountainMods/DangerDen to custom fab one for you but it's gonna $$$ :eek:

If you want to fab one up- you can stack two mATX desktops or side-side two mATX small towers and bolt together....

Would make an interesting cube type case

That's what I was thinking myself.. two cheap cases.. boom... just gotta get handles to "hold".

really, it wouldn't unless you wanted it all side by side... all you really need to do is:

Drill holes
Rivets all around hooking them together.

2 days I think it would be done and you got something.. now, if you want to go pro..

Taking the top off each
bondo together
sand for a few days
primer paint....

All depends on how you want to go at it..

Hell even if you wanted.. talk with Mountainmods.. It will be money, but a Pinnacle 24 can fit two Micros in there... just gotta have one on one side and one on another... (I thought about that once with my old pinnacle case..)

Don't forget CaseLabs. The quality of their cases make MountainMods look pretty paltry.
