Reverse ATX cases...

Not really any better.
Upper part of case without active exhaust: graphic card, motherboard's that end and everything in there gets baked.
Aerocool masstige has the same setup, Its an awesome airflow case, but if your not into modding, the pricetag will steer you away. Other than that, This case is a modders dream.
I recently added wire management holes, added a 240 rad grill at the top (Which dropped my Gpu temps by 4C). I was gonna replace this case, but once i picked up the dremel, i fell in love again.

I'd recommend sticking to dremel brand. As said, the 300 should suit your needs perfectly.

Eh, there are better tools than the Dremel for almost any application...
Jig-saws for cutting in panels (with at least a 26tpi blade).
Hole saws for making fan holes.
etc.
The dremel excels at making small cuts in small areas, but it's really, really expensive.

I believe it will fit with the TRUE.
If a dremel is too expensive for you, you shouldn't be modding anything anyways...

Hey, lay off the man. In this economy, everything is expensive lol.
He may have meant "expensive" in terms of time and consumables (i.e., cutting disks) compared to using a proper tool.If a dremel is too expensive for you, you shouldn't be modding anything anyways...
99% of PC modding is simple metalwork...go to any metal shop and see if they have a Dremel.
Betcha they don't.

A Dremel is too expensive for me, because it achieves much less than 40$ of tools you'll use for a good 5-10 years. The price tag is small, but the ROI is also quite small.
A 100$ dremel kit versus a:
9$ Drill from Wal Mart.
15$ jig-saw + blades from Home Depot.
10$ Small moue sander for edges from anywhere.
Add in another 25$ or so for a 120mm hole saw if you'd like (still cheaper than the dremel kit) but this is totally optional.
Exactly.

If you guys want to get a good deal on a Rotary tool, make sure you check eBay. Two or three years ago i picked up a rotary tool by Craftsman with a case, extender, and two sets (one is a cutting other one is sanding/polishing) only for $30 + some small shipping. It was refurbished but it was in like new condition... chewed up around 4-5 cutting wheels with 2-3 sanding wheels, not to mention the polishing of all my water blocks in a past.
Pretty sure it means what it says it means mashie. WTX is pretty specific: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WTX_(form_factor)
It is specific in referring to a different power set up, a different size motherboard, etc. It's not exactly the same as turning an ATX motherboard upside down.

Mountain Mods Towers are swappable - ATX or Reverse ATX. Sweet feature.
So are their cubes if you get creative.
