well, i am a huge fan of the corsair graphite series and the 380t would be a nice one to mod, to fit mATX motherboards. i remember when the bitfenix prodigy was modded, so i thoughts is, can it be done ? to make the 380t case to fit mATX motherboards?
I have yet to see a 380T in real life, but having owned a Prodigy and from what I have seen a few people say about it as well, is that the Prodigy had a lot of 'wasted' space for an ITX case. thus the reason and 'ease' of converting it to mATX by having motherboard vertically placed. the 380T from pictures looks to be quite compact and not so much 'wasted space' so it could be a bit more difficult. then again you see weird and amazing changes done here, so who knows.
You could probably fit one in vertically, but it would take a fair bit of modding due to the slightly awkward shape. It'd probably need to go in the middle with the psu behind and gpu also rotated 90degrees on a riser cable/card.
#4 well the thing is, i dont yet have seen and hold the 380t case in real life. so i cant say if the motherboard should be vertically in the case. but corsair havent made the graphite series in a mATX size yet, only on ATX and eATX. - but i really like hte new 380t and 780t cases i think i would buy the case and see if i can do something about it posting some pictures in this thread later this week
