Sa TipidPC.....Hanpin mo iyun' member na Techjunction.

Dito sa Pinoy...nag post sila, ang store nila ay Quest Logic.

Sa Mandaluyong at sa Paranaque sila.

Kung gusto mong maganda...puro order basis iyun'

Pero may mga entry level nang lumabas ngayon.
Sa GILMORE at Broadway....from 1.2 to 2.5K. may Powersupply na.

best looking cheap HTPC case locally available is the Icute QS02-BB

http://www.icute.com.tw/english/QS02.html

2K sa TPC (Search mo lang QS02)

got mine from PCHUB at 1.9k. wala pa siya PSU. make sure to get a PSU with the fan blowing out (normal configuration).

I have the same casing and can accomodate full ATX boards.

hi. pwede bang ilipat ang foot stands para maging vertical ang orientation ng QS02 casing? nakalagay kasi sa website ng icute na "Both Desktop and Tower Style Available." ano ung orientation ng nabibiling QS02 sa PCHub?

how much ang total cost for your HTPC setup?

thanks.

pwede po itayo or ihiga yung QS02.. hindi ko din lang alam kung bakit yung pic sa websyt nakatayo.. eh dapat nakahiga yan dahil sa design niya..

check niyo din po antec cases.. pricier but napakapogi.. kayalang matx lang...

silverstone nice din.. kayalang too big for my taste.. pero kasya dito full atxs and maluwag..

Meron sa PC Hub, PC Options, PC Gilmore, etc. usually. Pero tawagan mo muna for inventory, para sigurado. Depende din nga sa form factor na hanap mo. Madalas uATX or Mini-ITX ang available na HTPC cases.

May mga online sellers din sa TipidPC.

mhupixto · « **Reply #21 on:** Jan 04, 2012 at 12:12 PM »

@ klpangan, sir thanks for the offer, But I might get a new one.

CD-R King also sells a fairly decent case for 1880 PhP. It can be placed on its side, and accepts most ATX/uATX boards, a normal ATX power supply, a regular-sized 5.25" ODD and a 3.5" HDD.

http://product.it168.com/detail/doc/308764/trait.shtml
Just remember na half-height lang ang expansion slots niya.

Here's a new option for those who want to build a formidable ITX rig:

There is enough space in the Coolermaster Elite 120 for a powerful graphics adapter and a strong power supply.
