Since my desk can't hold a huge Full-Size PC and I don't want to spend my money on a Gaming Laptop. I always wanted a Mini-ITX PC Under 10L which will perfectly fit on my desk but I don't know any good cases for the build.

Thanks for the recommendation but I'm looking for something a bit thinner than that

.. and maybe you'd want to specify more details, like:

- what size of motherboard?
- what's the minimum CPU cooler height?
- what size of GPU? dual slot? triple slot? full height? half height? single fan? dual fan? triple fan?
- how many hard drives (3.5" / 2.5")?
- preferred PSU type? SFX, ATX, Flex, Meanwell, etc?

I'm Choosing a Mini-ITX Motherboard
the CPU Cooler is AMD Stock Cooler (Ryzen 5 3600)
The GPU is MSI Aero ITX RTX2060 it's a single fan
I don't plan to have Hard Drive, I'm gonna choose 512 Nvme SSD instead
For this project, I'll prefer SFX Power Supply

Around $1500

Sorry, I mean the budget for the case alone.

As you know, commercial cases usually cost like $50 and more. Now the custom cases here is another story. I'd say $150 onward.

Also, for the custom cases, depending on where you live, you may need to pay shipping fee as well.

ah for the case i think i won't spend over $100

Right. So I think we can rule out many of the custom cases here.

For the commercial cases, I'd suggest:
- Silverstone SG13
- Silverstone Raven RVZ01/02/03 series (or Milo ML08, basically similar)
- Lian Li TU150
- Cougar QBX

Please note that they aren't exactly 10L & some are probably slightly more expensive than what your budget allow.

if you have a $1500 budget you could spend a bit more for the case as your components are kind of cheap. I had a similar budget (just a different currency):

I would recommend a Velka 5 if you can find one on sale or order it next month. It is probably the smallest case that can hold these components at a relatively low price. (I own one and it is very nice).
