Hello!
Finally decided to slowly make the move to an SFF build instead of buying a laptop in addition to my PC. The PC is mostly used at home, but also needs to be able to be taken to work/university in a backpack. As such I thought a small console-shaped case would be best for transporting in a backpack, because it will not tip over randomly while walking with the backpack. Therefore I thought Skyreach Mini or the Zaber Sentry would be my best bets. But the Sentry is not available for buying except for 500+€ on ebay which is a little absurd.
With the Skyreach I am worried about future upgrade due to the limitations with Voltage and GPU size and the new GPUs :x
Currently I only plan to move my current PC with a Ryzen 5 1600 and a EVGA GTX 1060 into the new case, which would not be a problem but I am quite sure I am due for some upgrades in a year or so, considering I use the PC for playing games and developing 3D applications (possibly in VR too) in Unity.

I assume my next best choice would be the Dancase, but I wanted to check if I missed any other suitable cases/options or my worries about the skyreach's future upgrades are unjustified. So I'd be glad to hear your input!
