So I've had my sig rig since Dec. of 2010 and really enjoyed the crap out of it. I was very excited to go with the HAF-X at first, however, I felt like the novelty wore off. I have been very impressed by how powerful these mATX rigs can be. The cases I've been digging so far are Fractal Design Arc Mini and SilverStone TJ08B-E. Leaving my 1090T/6870 for either Sandy or Ivy , a 7970 and a RoG mATX mobo.
Also, a co-worker of mine offered to buy my rig for $800.
Anyone else get bored of their HAF-X and decided to go mATX? I would love to see before and after pics if possible. And if so, did your components become beefier even though you've downsized?

After making this thread, I started to look at my HAF-X from different angles. Even picked it up, I forgot how heavy it is, lol. The nostalgia of putting it together for the first time kicked in. Ugh. Maybe, i'll keep it in the family and give it to my kid while I go mATX. However, that would be a tough sell to get another high end pc in the house since I just got approval from the boss lady to put $400 down towards that Catleap 27" IPS . If that didn't push it, building another rig would.
