    Thinking of building a reasonably capable gaming and HTPC in a small as feasible case with an optical drive and tv tuner card.
    My main concern is getting a decent looking case that can fit a mid range graphics card tuner card without too much trouble, any inspiration from similar builds or advice is appreciated, thanks.
