Hi guys, it's been a long time.
I'm going to build a powerful Mini-ITX PC for gaming mainly on my 34" LG monitor (1440x3440) in my room and occasionally carry it to the living room to play on the 65" 4k TV, and I need your expert advice to select the best case for this computer as I have some complicated constraints.
I've already decided on the following components:
Motherboard : ASRock Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming-ITX/ac
CPU : Intel Core i7-6700k
CPU Cooler : Corsair H80i GT 120mm Liquid CPU Cooler
Memory : G.SKILL TridentZ 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3333 (PC4 26600)
Storage : Samsung 950 Pro M.2 SSD [512 MB] + Samsung 850 Pro SSD [2 TB] x 3
GPU : Either an nVidia Titan X Pascal with an EVGA hybrid cooling solution or an EVGA GTX 1080 Ti Hybrid (if it comes out soon).
PSU : SilverStone SX700-LPT SFX-L 700 Watt Power Supply
The case should be the smallest and lightest case possible that fits all of the above components, noting that I intend to use push/pull fans on both the CPU and GPU 120mm radiators, which means that the case should allow for fitting two 120mm radiators with a total thickness (rad+fans) of 100mm each.
If I couldn't find such a case, then I'll go with the Fractal Design Define Nano S and use the Corsair H105 240mm Liquid CPU Cooler instead, but that case is too big, and I'm hoping to get something smaller.
I've truly searched a lot but couldn't find the right case.
Can you please help?
