Suggestions needed for a slim cabinet & PSU for HTPC

Hi guys,

I need a slim cabinet and PSU for my HTPC which can accommodate a Micro ATX motherboard (Gigabyte B75) and a low profile graphics card.

If it comes without PSU, then it should be able to accommodate any regular ATX PSU (like CX430V2) else it wll be difficult to find a compatible PSU.

I will prefer a horizontal one but will take a vertical one also if it is a good one like the one used in Dell Inspiron 620s .

I don't like CM 360/361, they are not slim either.

My budget is around 3-4k.

Thanks.

CM Elite 310 @ 1.8k
Corsair CX430 V2 @ 2.4k
Total 4.2k , if you can extend it to 5K
Get the NZXT Gamma @ 2.5K , very good vfm Cabinet

You won't really find a lot of good branded HTPC cases in India. Since you don't want the CM 360, check these out Cabinets - Slim - Zebronics - Always Ahead - Largest Range of Peripherals

They may not be very well built though.

Thanks mate.

I guess I will have to go with either Zebronics or CM 360/361. :(
