The NOX Xtreme Coolbay CX joins the fray of sub 70 euro mATX cube cases - a hard fought-over case segment. It aims to catch your eye with its ability to hold a 280 mm radiator and its built-in card reader. But will that be enough to take away from more specialized or more colorful mATX cases?

I like cases with flat laying motherboards.

Love it, anyone know where can i find one or something like this in the US, all these great cases seem to be from Europe or UK. I'm pretty sure I have seen a mATX one from BitFenix which has the motherboard horizontally like this one, Prodigy or Phenom is not the one.
edit
found the man!!, its the Aerocool Silent.

You are very welcomed. :)

I saw it on NewEgg a few weeks ago and thought it looked exactly like, just slightly larger than, a Corsair 250D. Had to sign up to let others know as soon as I read this review.

Looks like my Aerocool DS Cube. I like the idea, but I'm not a big fan of the concept. The case is massive.
