There's a giant thread full of this over on the forums :) Still, if you're into that sort of thing there are dozens of more affordable options (both copies of more established designs and a lot of original designs) in the 4-15l range on TaoBao - you just have to go through an agent like Superbuy and live with the delays and lead times of small-scale manufacturing. Still, tooling even for a small mass-produced case can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to manufacture. There's also the issue of lack of economics of scale in the SFF space - due to compatibility issues and the sheer number of different layouts possible it's really hard to reach sufficient sales volumes to make cases cheaper - though hopefully we'll see developments of cases like the InWin A1 or Corsair QBX moving to SFX PSUs in the near future for some more space savings. I'd be interested in seeing someone launch a £70-£80 budget option (regardless of build quality, as long as its built to last)."Regardless of build quality, as long as it's built to last" is a rather contradictory statement.Īlso, sandwich-layout cases aren't becoming that cheap any time soon simply due to the requirement for a quality PCIe riser cable, which is easily a $30 cost to the manufacturer - which will obviously become higher than that when passed on to the end user.
