Cool need a btx mid tower case
is there any cheap btx mid towers out there or better yet is there any cases that aren't riveted so i could make my own btx case? doesn't have to be anything special. and i know i could get a btx back plate for my armor but this if for my new computer. i came in a desktop btx case with one fan. just want to give it a proper home.

The Stacker 810 is convertable, but it's a **** load of rivets and screws to convert it from ATX to BTX.

If rivets are what pain you, why not just bust them out with a drill bit?
