Full tower mostly, but also use mid tower for smaller builds.

well honestly I;d have to check them all...

I love the challenge of a tiny case but I also like any case. I prefer to pick the case to fit the job I am doing. I dont have a personal preference for size as I have ATX, mATX and mini-itx is various sizes and shapes. it really doesnt matter to me.

What is that? I like.

I voted full tower, because my mid tower is to small.
