    Need some used 1U cases

    Nothing special, needs to be under retail price and good airflow.

    rackmount design is a lot more complicated than "good airflow"
    - what board are you fitting ?
    - what cpu ?
    - active or passive cooling ?
    - with or without rails ?

    Sorry if I was a little vague, we are using Q6600's with active cooling. Rails are a plus but we are looking to undercut retail by a bit so they can be removed to reduce cost.

    Remove the rails to reduce costs? What the hell are you going to do when you have a stack of 5/10/20 of these and the bottom one fails? Madness IMO for the £5/10 you will save. Good luck!

    We already have generic rack kits ready to attach to them, I don't know if this is how you forum users treat people looking to buy products but unless you have something to sell then I am not interested in what you have to say.
