Who's excited about the A4-SFX? I'm already planning my build.
Also, can somebody recommend a replacement for the Bitfenix Prodigy? I hate everything except for its size. I want something more aesthetic with better cable management.

I am.
This would make a sweet SteamOS build.

Never change small fags.

If you hate everything except its size then get an ATX case as they are the same size as that thing.
I'm still not convinced about airflow in this thing. I mean, I get that it takes air in from outside, but I can't trust the air to just rise out of the case top. To me it seems like you're basically slow cooking your motherboard, RAM and everything else that isn't actively cooled.

Why there is not a leading case brands doing cases like this?

jonsbo cases are like affordable ncase. Too bad no one sells them where I live.

The air doesn't just "rise" through the top, the idea is that the CPU, GPU and PSU fans all draw air in through the sides, which creates a positive pressure situation inside the case, so the air is forced out of the vents (top and otherwise). I have my own reservations about the airflow, though, and I think the back of the GPU and motherboard are going to be real problem area, since they don't get any real airflow.

There is, kinda. See pic related. It's not nearly as small, but fundamentally it's pretty similar.

Why exactly should he build a new computer?

Yeah, anyone with a motherboard that has m.2 on the back is fucked. I use an open air video card because reference designs are too loud, so I'm a bit worried about mine.
I was thinking of getting pic related to replace my Sg13. Thoughts?

Why go bigger?
>>54336063
Better cooling. And it's not THAT much bigger. Plus I would be able to fit my 3.5 1TB in there as well.
>>54336025
It's basically the same case without the ugly front.
>>54336338
Also 40% larger
>>54334884
Fucking this.
I'm STILL waiting for the C3, but fucking Rosewill refuses to even acknowledge it. Even the Europeans already have it through Cooltek.
I do not want the U3, Rosewill. Give me the C3.
