Enclosure Full ATX in SFF case?

[Jordy]

Hello,

I wanted to build a xeon machine, with the 1366 socket.

I would like to carry it around, and was wondering what my options are. I will use a HD PLEX psu so don't need a full atx psu. And i'm also able to cut some parts inside the case if needed.

Personally i was thinking about the node 202. But i'm not sure if everything will fit.

Thanks.

There are a few Silverstone cases that might work for you, look at the Milo line.

If you want a Mini ITX Xeon one I can offer you one. Not cheap, not cheap at all but that's also cause it includes the CPU. Can provide some details tomorrow if interested

On second thought ignore that. That was a lowish power 45W xeon cpu a customer of mine uses

Why do you want Xeon? Just trying to understand your rationale.

If high core count, would a Ryzen / Coffee Lake system do?
If ECC support, would Ryzen do?

Simple question, simple answer...Kimera Industries Cerberus-x..

Check my build (signature). I guess that the case for you..

Yeah a ryzen would do but i bought a x5650 12gb ram and a msi x58 pro e for just €160 already had a nano psu laying around, gonna use this build for college. Instead of buying a €500 pentium laptop with 4 gb of ram, i'm better of with this. And i'm also working on a Ryzen build right now.

What do you mean by nano psu? Dc-dc like hdplex? If yes, it's not able to handle r9 nano.. (check my s4 mini link..)

You can mod a lot of mATX cases that have he psu mount in the bottom to fit an ATX board. Ideally you go with an SFX psu since you need to relocate that. Definitely getting your hands dirty but if you get the case really cheap hacking it up is super fun really!

Maybe a Cerberus-X? I thought I saw one of the prototypes for sale ( by @VisualStim ) in the Bazaar...
