Hi
I'm purchasing a new case for my pc, the problem is the place that holds my tower in my desk is too short (about 19 inches) I want the CM Storm Sniper
Newegg.com - COOLER MASTER Storm Sniper SGC-6000-KKN1-GP Black ABS Bezel, SECC Body ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - Computer Cases sniper
It is about 22 inches tall. Is there a case just like that, that is about 18-18.5 inches tall. Tool-less 2 or 3 case fans. black color.
Or if anyone can suggest a way to give my self more room in my desk to use that case then please do tell. thanks

One question: Do you really want to use that compartment of your desk?

Because If it were me, I would just put it on the right side below it, theres still space for your legs, and its easy to reach.

Though I can understand why you would want it there.

Yeah, I guess that would be a good idea. Do you know a PSU with about 550-600W with long cables?

I agree with itragedy, if you are going to pay for a Storm Sniper you might as well show it off.

If you absolutely must hide it, Bare Foot Kids idea is good. Better than buying a new desk!
