I like the BH4 because it is quite small; 22 liters, the Core V21 is twice the size 44 liters.

I think that is the closest you will get for matx.....

There might be a lian li solution, but i havent really kept up with there cases.
And Lian Li's arent really watercooling friendly, if putting a LCS was your intention like most case labs cases.

Only air cooling for me. I liked the clean dual chamber layout, small size with good unobstructed air flow from the two front intakes fans.

The closest mainstream case (I have a spreadsheet with every one I could find) is the Corsair Air 240 I previously mentioned at 34 Liters, and a lot of ugly plastic.

Maybe someone will pick up tooling and IP in the asset sale.

Yes, I got a Lian-Li for a E-ATX dual socket motherboard for $220. They want $800. And Lian-Li is some of the best out there.
I have a couple Lian-Li cases here, it's what I was buying before I picked up my S8's. The Caselabs is much thicker aluminum. Almost bought a PC-D600 before I grabbed the S8. Lian-Li seemed to stay with 80mm fans for quite a while after 120mm became standard on most others.
