mini ITX is all about space saving....What is the point of a mini ITX case if it's as big as a mid tower that can support full ATX. The smaller the better- as long as it has support for a 120mm AIO Water Cooling Kit- long GPU, decent PSU and 2.5" Drives I think you would please alot of people.

My hunch is that M-ITX will become a killer gaming platform. Slap a dual GPU and maybe an H100 or Kraken X60 for theh CPU and you've got a pretty sweet setup, if you can keep the case small enough. I'm not too concerned about having the tiniest possible case because there are already dozens of designs for that, but I agree, if it's too big - what's the point? For those that don't need W/C, fill the rad space with HDD mounts.

OK m-ITX? Top Ventilation. (2x 120mm fans) Space for 1x 240 Rad would be nice but not mandatory. (in the top of the case) But offer the option of a pedestal for extra rads if they want it. Room for at least 1x 2 slot GPU, Bottom mounted PSU of course. 1x 3.5" HDD and 2x 2.5" HDD/SDD. 3x 5.25" Case Labs drive bays.(would allow 1x120mm Rad mounting possiblity) . USB 3.0. Pleasing outside asthetics.

How about this layout?
If a pedestal, the I/O ports will be on the bottom.... have to create a channel to redirect them to the back.

I want it to be aluminum for sure. Maybe have the option for steel at a lower cost?

Really appreciate the input guys! 
I'm not going to go into much detail about the layout just yet, partly because it's still evolving and partly for competitive reasons
I'm still debating aluminum vs steel on this one. At the moment, I'm leaning towards steel: less expensive and the weight penalty is less significant on a small case. For a TH10, you'd need a forklift

Personally, I would much rather have aluminum simply for the heat dissipation....
