Itx case with 2 PCI slots above motherboard?

**3Tripnip** · 01-03-2006, 12:16 AM

Hey!

Has anyone seen one of these cases? Some of the Travla cases have 1 PCI card above the mobo, but I've never seen one with two slots. Does one exist? Here's the Travla I'm talking about:

Any help would be awesome. Thanks!

That would work perfect, but I'm looking for a case.

Is this what you are looking for?

These are side by side slots, so no riser needed, but it makes the case 'taller' than you may want.

Close, but no.

The two card slots are "perpendicular" to the motherboard, where I need them "parallel" above the board. I have an ITX motherboard with a PCI slot that supports up to 3 cards on one riser card. I would like to have two though (sound and video). Getting closer... I can feel it.

Okay, you did say that. I have seen cases where the riser points the cards away from the MB like this:

but I have not seen cases that have two pci slots over the MB (only 1 slot as in shuttle cases). If you find it, please post the link - I'd like to see them too.

Iwould say get friendly with some plexiglass and build on:-)
put plexi in the oven.. it makes it soft and plyable.. easy to make nice bends.. not too hot though

found this on forming plexi that way http://casemodgod.com/Worklog-story-2-9.html

I read about that (maybe on the same site - those guys do incredible stuff!). I've bent plexi with a butane tourch before and small pieces using a candle. It's not difficult, just need patience.
