Having a hard time finding atx desktop for htpc

[thestain]

I bought a Lian Li PC-C301, thinking this would do the job, but it comes with pre installed and slightly mis measured standoffs, making it really a micro atx case, since really difficult to mount full atx and one of the micro atx stand offs is not needed or desired for atx, yet it is hard installed.. drmel would make micro atx no longer a possibility.

Anyway back to the case..

no more than 16 inches deep
can be as wide as 20 inches
and can be as high as 9 inches.

Any and all ideas appreciated.. I have looked at silverstone.. all through the teens and 20... want something taller and wider, with 120 mm fans and good cooling, good air flow..

Whatever happened to the Antec large atx desktop that looked like a nsk 2400 or 2480.. demo'd almost a year ago? No mention of it on Antecs site.

Thanks for replies, I am limited to no more than 16 inches deep and this is what is making it hard to find one.. lots of cases 17 inches deep, but with my set up I need that is not that deep. I measured and any case under 9 inches or so.. actually 9 1/2 inches will fit and width needs to be less than 20 1/2 inches. It does not have to have 120 mm fans, but the bigger the fan the better imo.. Some nice cases to look at, but have not found the "one" yet.. about 390 to 400 mm deep is as much room as I have to work with.

Antec Fusion Black 430 is the closest case i could find with your specs. Only it has 414mm instead of 400 (you must have 1cm space there, is it really that tight?), however, it is very well ventilated for a htpc, 2x120 sidemounted Antec TriCool

If all else fails it's time to break out some tools and a visit to your local hardware store.
