I am looking at getting a big matx case sometime soon.I dont want to go full atx I want to stay with matx.I need to be under $150 shipped also,the lower the better

I need something with room and good cooling.My current case is a small gateway case and when my new video card gets purchased I am gonna have to hack the HDD case to get it to fit inside.

I just need something that will accomodate the big ass video cards that are coming out
GTX 260 specifically.I am only gonna be using 1 hard drive,1 dvd drive,a card reader thats it for the front so please help me out guys
 
Silverstone TJ08, SG03/04. I have the TJ08 and it has fantastic cooling, and enough room on the inside for big graphics cards.
 
You could always look at ATX mini towers also. The LL A05 is a fantastic choice.

Why you being such an ass. Do you live just to give others hard times or what? And why is it that you knew about a 3 month old thread, did you come here and think, humm, let me search the universe and see if I can find something to give this guy a hard time about. I don't have anything usefull to add so I will just be an asshat!

And why the fuck did you bump the old thread on top of it all! GET A FUCKING LIFE ASSHOLE!

Back on topic.

I don't understand exactly what your looking for. Every ATX case can support a Micro ATX motherboard. Ruling out a standard ATX case is elimanating alot of very good cases that are about the same size as the largest MicroATX cases and you would have alot more options to choose from.
Are you wanting a cube style case like the NZXT Rogue or a tower? If your looking for a tower then do yourself a favor and consider a full ATX case and you will make your search alot easier, if your looking for a cube case theres not really much to choose from, I think the NZXT Rogue would be a good choice.
 
LianLi A05-B is full atx, but with the positioning of the powersupply(front bottom of the case) it ends up being comparable to a large matx case. I'd recommend it.
 
Coolermaster 340.

Fits My Tuniq Tower.. and should fit any video card. The HD cage doesn't go all the way to the bottom. However, there are only room for 2x3.5" devices, and 2 OPTICAL drive devices.

But it might not be the look you're going for.

edit: Price is nice too. at fry's the normal price is $35.
 
I have been looking @ the 340 lately the only thing killing me is the shipping.If I could find a used one or get free shipping I'd be A-OK

I only have 1 dvd drive,1 card reader,and 1 hard drive so I dont need all the hd cage room.If I need more HD space which I highly doubt I'll just buy a bigger HD.I have a 320gig which isn;t even half way.
