an odd request

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
Ok so I have my case selection down to the following 3 cases -

Silverstone SG05
Silverstone SG08
Fractal Design Node 304

Now I am well aware of the features / limitations of each. Now the question is does anyone have photos of these cases next to some larger conventional cases? Trying to get a better visual as size easy works to some degree, but it is better to see it next to something that I can actually compare scale.

By the way my current case is the original Antec 900 which I believe comes in at around 47 liters in size.

a cardboard box would be fine but it isn't necessarily 4 yrd old or puppy proof thumb.gif

and the reason i asked for photos here is the simple reason people tend to have alot of cases it seems like and maybe had a quick and easy size compare.

Maybe you can use a site like this to visualize size? Heh, first time I used it. Neato! Here's a link of the comparison.

Then just look at the pics noobhell posted above. The three ITX cases are pretty close in size, with the greatest difference being the SG05 is much less deep than the other two. The mid tower ATX cases are probably pretty darn close to the Antec 900 in size.
