I'm working on list of cases, that have window on right side panel, so you can put them on the left of your screen and see the interior. They are often called inverted atx, because most of the time mobo tray is flipped upside down.
If you guys know more case models, especially some new ones that fit that requirement, feel free to post it here.



List so far:

- Corsair 600C (Q windowless) (ATX)
- Corsair Carbide 240 (no feet so you can flip entire case) (mATX)
- Be Quiet dark base 700 i 900 (ATX)
- Raijintek Thetis (ATX)
- Thermaltake g3 (ATX)
- BitFenix Prodigy & Phenom (mATX)
- Parvum R1.0 (mATX & ATX), X2.0, VEER1.0 (both ITX)
- Hex Gear R40 (mATX) R80 (ATX)
- Silverstone FT02, RV02 (ATX)
- Silverstone TJ08-E, PS07, KL06 (mATX)
- Silverstone TJ07 (easy mod, ATX), TJ11 (ATX)
- Lian Li A05 (old version, ATX), V1000, V2000 (old cases, ATX)
- Cooler Master Cosmos C700P (ATX)

I know there is more old Lian Li models, they are hard to find, long time EOL.
Sadly there isn't that many new cases that come out with this layout, or at least modular design that allow to convert them to inverted without modding.

What about the Corsair 600C with the window, great roomy case.

I am a huge fan of these cases, I've been using a Coolermaster Stacker STC-01 (from when invertable mobos were a bit more common) for over 10 years now. It is finally getting replaced with a BeQuiet Dark Base 700. I am waiting for about two more pieces for the new build so hopefully just a couple more weeks before it is built. I looked at the 600C, but did not want or need 5 1/4 bays at all.

Plus I liked the looks of the DB700 more.

I put tempered glass panels on both sides of this Thermaltake Core X9, does that count?

Thank you so much for this list! I've got my eye on flipping the InWin 900 upside down and moving the rubber "feet", but there are small grooves where they originally sit which is putting me on the hunt for options like this. Still one of the most beautiful cases and so tempting, though...

Does anyone know if the Lian Li v3000 is also invert-able? I can't seem to be able to confirm..

Also, where to buy it these days? Ty!

Lian Li PC-O12WX

Weird thing about this one is the GPU's are mounted on the "right side" and attached to the mobo with a riser cable. Also there are no expansion slots.

I just did a build in a Thermaltake g3 (ATX). Cable management is non-existent. Significant modding is required to get decent airflow. Water cooling will require significant planning.

I only got the case because I only had about a 140mm of space on the left side of the desk. It worked for me but I knew what I was getting myself in for after research.
Pleas check out builds and reviews for this case before buying one.
