    Hi,

    I have a 12U Flight case similar to this: http://www.flightcasewarehouse.co.uk/music/typeproducts2.asp?id=2887-2604

    I'd like to add my PC to the flight case but I'm having trouble finding a suitable rack-mountable case with a depth of 500mm.

    Presently my PC comprises of:

    ASUS P6TD Deluxe
    Corsair H50
    Saphire ATI 5770 HD
    1 x SSD
    1 x 3.5" HD
    2 x DVDRW drive

    I've seen cheap "short" (460mm) 4U cases which would fit the flight case but I've read that fitting a full sized graphics card can be difficult.

    I was also wondering if a 4U case is sufficient for airflow? Is it worth considering a 5U case?

    If anyone has ideas or suggestions for this I'd be very grateful.

    Thanks for reading,

    Shanksy
