The real issue you run into with slim cases are they do not tend to take full height or even length cards.

mITX cases with the video card at 90 degrees are about your best bet, but they all seem to use SFX power supplies.

I am interested to see what users find for you.

Something like the SG10 is pretty compact, but NOT in anyway slim.

I've got a SIlverstone SG06 myself.. and while it does take SFX PSU - it can fit 10.5" cards (says 10" on silverstone site, but I'm pretty sure i saw 10.5" somewhere)

It's not as slim as a steambox and it does need an SFX.. but i am very happy with mine. It looks gorgeous under my tv. (that's my 2 cents)

A slim case can only be as slim as the height of the video card, unless it turns it 90 degrees. After that, it can only be as slim as the power supply is thick.

As nukemaster said, there are some great ITX cases that turn the video card sideways, but they use SFX PSUs to get even more slim.

I would personally go with a Silverstone ITX case + SFX PSU if I were building a slim machine.
