So in my endless search for an Antec ISK300-65, I've come to the conclusion that this case isn't available from any reliable vendor for any reasonable price. I've ordered it from two separate vendors who have it listed on their site but have since been told they are out of stock. I've checked with several other sites that say it's available, but further inquiry tells me otherwise. So I need an alternative.
Here's my equipment list, everything else has been purchased and is in route so i don't want to switch it out for a case that won't work. I want a small form factor ... though I would be willing to purchase a case that i could put an internal optical drive in. I *Could* get a different mobo if necessary, but i'd rather not. I hope to find one that is already designed to handle the picoPSU.
CASE: TBD
PSU: picoPSU 160
MOBO: ASRock Z77E-ITX LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s
APU: Intel Core i7 3770S processor 3.1 4 LGA 1155 BX80637I73770S
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Tactical 4GB DDR3 SDRAM Memory Module - BLT2KIT2G3D1869DT1TX0
FAN: Scythe BIG SHURIKEN 2 Rev B. 5
HD: Crucial 64 GB m4 2.5-Inch Solid State Drive SATA 6Gb/s CT064M4SSD2
OS: Win7 Pro 64 + XBMC
REMOTE / Keboard: Logitech Harmony One & iPazzPort Pro Mini (Black) KP-810-10-A
ANTENNA: Mohu MHANT 1000
TUNER: HD HomeRun Dual
I have gift cards from NewEgg & Amazon so those would be my preferred outlets - but I'd rather just find the right case.
