Looking for a special case.

[deathcall666]

I intend to make a sff pc. I want a (hopefully cheap) case that can certainly allow the GPU to be mounted parallel to the MB. Sort of alienware's x51 r2 mounting (I don't necessarily need the PCIx16 adapter , I can easily find and PCIx16 extesion)
The problem is that i haven't found a small enough case , they are all huge for a gtx1050ti , a g4560 , 1 SSD and 2*4gb ram on a mitx board.

why do u want your gpu to show lol

The Fractal Design Node 202 comes to mind. The GPU sits in a separate compartment from the motherboard, but is still parallel to keep the case's profile very slim.

I think there's a silverstone case with a similar internal layout. I could be wrong.

I don't want my GPU to show. I just want a slim case .That's it

Use pcpartpicker.com to search for Mini ITX cases.

Take a look at these Silverstone cases:

For TFX PSU's here are some cases that come or are compatible with it:

In Win BP Series (BP691, BP671, and BP659): https://www.in-win.com/en/computer-chassis/bp-series/USA
Silverstone LC04 (old model): http://www.silverstonetek.com/legacy.php?area=en&model=lc04

I've already selected your answer but I have to ask. Would the in-win model support a 99mm width GPU.

More than likely, you can't as the In Win BP Series cases are already ~100mm in exterior width leaving you with no room (taking account the panel thicknesses, motherboard, and standoffs) to fit in a 99mm-wide GPU. I am not sure if you can mod it inside the chassis and use a riser extension though.

Same goes with the Cooler Master Mini 210 (having just 99mm exterior width) and the Chieftec cases (at only 90mm exterior width).

You *might* (not sure) be able to install the GPU normally in the Silverstone LC04 case though.
