Digital Home Thoughts: Full Size Desktop PC Cases A Thing Of The Past

"Bit-tech and Custom PC writer Antony Leather strolled into the Labs the other day and, proud of his work, showed me a system he'd just built for an upcoming feature. It's an impressively slick machine: Core i5-3570K, Nvidia GeForce GTX 680, 8GB of RAM, a 128GB SSD and a custom water-cooling loop, all put together with the sort of fastidious tidiness you'd expect."

Components are getting smaller and smaller so its only logical the cases that holds them get smaller too. With the ever expanding availability of space efficient cases, mini/micro version of components, high efficient cooling systems and solid state drives, perhaps there is no longer a need for the classic full size tower PC case.
