Antec Minuet350 Piano Black Computer Case
Cons:Needed one extra HD mounting screw

Pros:Perfect component fit, size and quietness
Comment:
This, my 6th build, was for a compact but capable device for my wife's fabric arts studio. It took me about 90 minutes between delivery of components by UPS to have it up and running on Win8 Pro. The ASUS Z87i-Deluxe mITX motherboard plus Intel I7 4770S Quad Core 3.1 GHZ Haswell processor fit perfectly. The lift-out cage was just right for the 120 GB Kingston SSDNow Flash Drive, Seagate Barracuda 2TB Hard Drive and LG Blu-Ray Writer. The setup is not for gaming, but for high-resolution graphics on a Viewsonic VP2765-LED 27" orientable monitor. The very attractive package is unobtrusive in both footprint and in sound. It runs at less than 37 degrees C, which is almost 10 degrees cooler than my ASUS P8Z77-M Pro machine. This was my most satisfying build yet!

Antec Minuet350 Piano Black Computer Case
Cons:PSU is only 350. (would have liked 450)PSU is not modular; cables are too long.HDD installation is confusing without first looking at the manual.One exhaust fan with no room to add.

Pros:Very easy to work with.Nicely compactedSolid look and feel.
Comment:
Pictures are deceiving; the case body is a lovely piano black, while front panel is a mix of glossy/matte silver/grey.One exhaust fan which sucks, but then I remember this is to reduce noise for an HTPC set up. Overall, this was a great choice for my mini-DTX build with the Atom processor. Definitely recommended for Atom builds, and is really quiet.The bundled CPU has been wonderful at moving the air within the case while the exhaust fan is pushing quite a bit of air out of the case. Case quality is definitely wonderful, and wouldn't expect less from Antec. I will be buying again.

Cons:nicer case the the picture above makes it out to be. was surprised to receive the piano black version (thought it was silver). theres not a lot of room to work in the case to tuck away spare PSU cables etc. the manual wasn't too helpful installing the 3.5" HDD's too.
