Best HTPC Case: Computers and Accessories

This is a great looking case in a compact form factor, but it packs a lot of room if you get the right components. The remote control works perfectly, I really like the LCD display, it has a lot of potential. Simply put, it's worth the price and is pleasing to the eye.

Pros
  • External Components
Cons
  • Updates Available

The Retro Milo Case will still be a good HTPC in 2020!

I didn't buy this from Revain, I got it from Newegg and paid way more than stealing the deal offered here. However, this retro Silverstone case caught my attention and I set out to rebuild it into a modern HTPC. So I had to switch from the flimsy 120W PSU to a PICO PSU, I got the 500W version but I only did that to meet the GIGABYTE B350 D3H motherboard spec. I chose and paired an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G, 16GB DDR4 RAM and 2TB NVMe for boot/storage. I also added a Slim Blu-Ray drive that I found…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Weight
