Awesome! Found a few others to add:
THERMALTAKE VF6000BNS & VF6000BWS Mini Case
Antec New Solution Series NSK1300 Mini Tower Case
Not sure of the pros cons.
And for Sugo 1 and Sugo three, that's the SG01 and SG03 right? Does this include the SG02 and Fragbox2?

edit: ah the VF6000 is the Lanbox Lite

yes those are the sg03 and 01 and the 1300 sucks in my opinion, and theres an antec 3300 too but m atx psu. and the thermaltake VF6000BWS is the lanbox lite i was talking about. and antec made a new one called 3480 i think im not sure, and also the sg02 is in america or has not even been made i dont think, but its the exact same as the sg01 interior and everything else, the only thing thats different is the face plate, which looks fuckin sweet in white!! and the fragbox 2 is almost the same but it looks different and has the side fanels and windows, they also made a sugo 1 with windows that looks awesome because the interior is pre painted black! and just looks sweet.
 
theres also the lain li v300 and the soon to be v350! the v300 kinda looks like a shitty design, the case cant take long cards unless you take the 3.5 bay out, and the psu placement sucks, but the v350 looks very promising!
 
most of them are noted on there. I have a few reviews at my site sffclub.com.

I need to update that site too...hmm
 
I was just at your site, would be an awesome source if you update it a bit.
 
ya dude no prob, and the place to buy the cases would have to be sffstore.com, its steeve's stores, he has plenty of cases and he is good to buy from.
 
I just went from a SG01 to a TJ08 and I love it. Better cooling all the way around!

Yeah, I really have no help with the site which makes it a big undertaking if you have a full time job and a store on the side :(
 
ya because its the exact same thing the qpack and micro fly are. microfly is a little bit longer so its better
 
The Sugo2 is my fav of all the ones I've seen. Anybody have an idea where to buy a SG02? :confused:
 
the rogue looks pretty nice, any other pics around the net?

and i could help you steeeve, but you would have to tell me wat we all have to do and stuff like that. i got a lot of time.
 
Rogue looks awesome, but I can't find any info on it. Emailed the company to see if they will be marketing it soon. Small dimensions is a big deal to me.
 
Looks nice, but I wonder what it looks like internally with the 2x120mm on the slot side. Room for watercooling or will it block a slot? It looks short too, but it's hard to get an idea of size without seeing the inside.
 
Went ahead and started the list on page one. Let me know if you know of another sff model or pros or cons on either
 
Lian-Li v300
Pros: Full ATX PSU, Looks great
Cons: 80mm cooling (can still be usable) Have to mod to fit large videocard, side loading ROM bays, have to use low heat sink. Loud...
 
Coolermaster Elite 340 (RC-340)

Basically the same interior as a TJ08.
Better looking on the outside

Ah, the type that buys gold curtains and thinks they're 'high class.'
You could make the TJ08 faceplate out of diamond encrusted gold and it would still be fugly, especially the square intake.
