What is the smallest alluminum atx case out there?

[Armageddon415]

I'm gonna have to transport this case every weekend and its just not conventional to lug around my chieftec case around. The shuttle xpc's are out too because they still have their share of problems. So now I'm looking for the smallest and lightest case possible that can support an atx mobo.

The Antec LAN Boy's are pretty small

The smallest aluminum case that I could find that houses a full ATX MB is the Coolermaster ATC-500 series.

This one runs $158 without a PSU at Newegg.

The LanBoy may be your best economical bet. According to the antec site, the lanboy actually comes with the carrying strap. First that I have heard of that. It looks like it is about 17" tall so it is right about the norm for a mid tower full ATX design.

It seems that newegg has them now. $89 + 15 shipping. That includes s 350W "SmartBlue" PSU.

I hope this helps... I'm interested in this case myself.

The DIGN HTPC seems to be slightly smaller. I dream about this case for my HTPC.
