Micro ATX Cases

[rwoody]

I'm looking for a micro atx case that will fit in a 12" x 12" space. I have found several, but I can't find one that has the USB's and I/O in the front AND a 5.25" bay. Anyone seen any?

you won't at that size with a 5.25" bay.

What is the third dimension? Is the 12" x 12" wide and high, wide and deep, or deep and high (I doubt that one)?

I know of nothing that will do the business in that size. Even my mITX case has one dimension greater than 12". (even though it is only 4" wide)

Looking for 12x12 or smaller in height and width. Depth isn't really as important.

For example, the Antec ISK 600M is the perfect size with the I/O's in front, but no optical bay.

The Cooler Master Elite 130 has all the features I want, but it's an mITX, not mATX.

My last resort is to do something like the Antec ISK 600M, with an external optical drive.

[strike]According to Antec's site, the ISK 600M is actually mini-itx: http://www.antec.com/product.php?fid=5022033&id=706714&lan=nz[/strike]
Edit: nevermind, that link is for the 600, not 600M. The 600M does support a slim ODD, is that not an option for you?

This one is pretty darn close, but exceeds your dimensions by 0.3":http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129228

I was wondering what the small horizontal slot was on the 600M. I didn't know the slim ODD was a thing. I guess I could purchase one to replace my regular size optical.
