    BTX compatible cases?

    Hi all,

    My girlfriend has a Dell Dimension something-or-other which appears to be based on the BTX form factor. She was asking if it was possible to get a new case for it. Can anyone recommend any BTX compatible cases? Something in brushed silver finish with possibility for a window panel is what she's after...

    Cheers in advance

    I may be wrong, but I think that rehousing the innards of the Dell will be a right pain, as Dell use non standard sized bits for number of things.

    The CM Stacker is the first one that comes to mind, It's a huge chunk of case though.

    But like Clunk said, Dell components are entirely proprietary designed with non-standard dimensions for no specific reason, the system might fit in a standard case, might not.
