    Bitfenix Prodigy mini-itx

    I'm thinking of getting one of these

    Does anyone have this case? I wonder how good it is.

    I have two, a black and a white. They're actually unused at the moment due to motherboard failures and, yes, some apathy/procrastination on my part.

    They're good cases, they're rather bulky for Mini-ITX, though and don't sit too well on carpet due to the flexible handles...

    That Fractal looks good.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Do you think there's enough room for a WC loop? (I'm hoping to fit a 120 or a 240 Rad in there)

    Yes, almost certainly. The closest I come to water cooling is a Corsair H50/H70 but the case is very roomy indeed - this review mentions a 240, specifically: http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1986/3/
