Source for BTX Computer Cases

[bgavin]

Does anybody have a good source for BTX cases?

Antec made a single model, but it is discontinued. I prefer a full size tower case with 3 or more 3.5" internal drives in the cage and fans in front of the drive cage.

USA vendor preferred.

Does anybody have a good source for BTX cases?

No idea if they are good, but I found a few links:

- Xoxide computers: http://www.xoxide.com/btx-case.html
- BTX form factor: http://www.btxformfactor.com/item/27/1.php

I think nobody will produce BTX cases in future because Intel stopped its developement in 2006 (source Wikipedia): so it was really a solution intended for Pentium 4s as Intel's detractors wrote about 4-5 years ago...
You may have more luck with convertible tower: they supports both Atx and Btx standards.

Intel stopping development surprises me. However, I still see a whole lot of brand new Dell machines in BTX. Despite this, the loss of Intel's blessing probably explains why nobody makes BTX cases.

I have a BTX motherboard (new) that I won't build, but will just hold onto for eventual insertion into a client's machine.
