Oops, I just reread my post and that just didn't come out right did it.

Once you add 3", next time you need 6", and so on and so forth.
You'd end up with a case the size of an Abrahams tank.
My next build is probably going to be a mini-atx one, just to see how much stuff I can cram inside one of those cases without it blowing up or melting down.

Cheers,

What on earth would I do with 3 6950's, assuming I could actually fit it someplace, which I can't.

You'll be sorry. Everything you buy has to be half height, and whatever you want cant be found in that size. You end up with what you can find in the right size, not what you wanted. Been there, Done that. Didn't even get a T-Shirt.

Well, whatever you're doing now, you could do it a lot faster. maybe you would want 3 6950's for the same reason some people want 3 690's. I guess they want to play BF3 at idle.

Thanks for the advice Steve.
I guess I'll start thinking about a different new toy then.

I found that it is a lot easier to find room to put a big case than it is to find room inside a small case.

10-4 on that good buddy! I see no reason to build in a mini-ITX case just so it can be on a shelf with the DVD player.

I'm liking this new case design a lot. Could be a fun build, check it out.

HAF XB - LAN Box

Then there's this wicked idea to consider.

Enclosures -> m-ITX - Cooler Master

I looked at the HAF XB once. I'm going to build a computer for my Granddaughter and she has limited space. The best part about it is forget cable management it's a lost cause. But it would be a good test bench too. It's kind of a neat case, but I sure wouldn't want to have to work inside it.
