    Case suggestions

    I've been doing some research on Hexus and elsewhere with a view to finding a case for an H67 build in the new year.

    The pc will be used by the kids and is not intended for serious gaming.
    I'll wait to see what shows up at CES for the motherboards but am thinking a Sandy Bridge will be OK for the GPU.

    I want it to be as quiet as possible but also as small as possible given where it will be located.
    With a silent PSU the main source of noise will be the CPU cooler.

    What would you suggest as the best quiet sff cases?

    I was looking at the Lian Li PC-Q08 but that is still a fair size.

    The Antec ISK family is pretty tiny but I'm not sure if they're great on sound levels

    Could always try the Silverstone SG05/SG06. Half the size of the Q08, quietish 12cm fan up front and can take a mid range gfx card if needed

    I think the Antec are too small as the power supplies are only 150W maximum.
    Silverstones look good if a little tricky to get everything in. Seems to be a popular case judging by various reviews.
