I was almost hell bent on getting the Prodigy. I currently use the Coolermaster HAF XM and while it is an amazing case, it's simply too bulky where it sits in my room and for travel it's simply. . inconvenient. I've flip flopped between towers, mid towers and small form factors for years but the Prodigy caught my eye.
I understand it is a bit on the big side for an ITX form factor, but it allows for some great cooling which is why I like it (especially coming from an air cooled monster like the HAF XM). I would be able to tuck my H100 in the optical bay with a 200mm up front and a 140mm in the back. Also the first case I've seen where the motherboard lays perpendicular to the floor.
For whatever reason though it's been out of stock at newegg for a few weeks now, and on top of that I've never been fully sold on the better ITX boards. Limited memory, SATA ports are in odd places. . . .meh.
To the point then, can anyone suggest an mATX case with similiar cooling features? I would need to fit a dual 120mm radiator and would love decent air cooling. Size doesn't need to be tiny, but at least around mATX mid tower or so.
