I looked for advice in the SFF forum but didn't get a huge response. What I'm looking for is a minitower that will be able to hold a big video card and yet be easy to transport back and forth. Some of the things I've been looking at are:

Silverstone TJ08/Athenatech 301 (same chassis)
Evercase 3505
Antec Super Lanboy (I'd rather not because I don't like the way it looks)
Lian-li PC-A05 (seems a little too deep)

I'm going to be taking this between my apartment and home 3 hrs away, probably with a load of other stuff (like laundry). Is it easier to transport something light-weight or is it easier to transport something small? i find that minitowers are usually steel but there are some midtowers that are aluminum and actually lighter than the minitowers.
 
If you are looking for a light case, go with a Coolermaster Centurion 5.
I have one and with everyting i have in it, it's pretty light.
 
MrDude:
It doesn't matter if it is mATX or ATX, as long as it's easy to carry. Well, I'd like it to fit a normal ATX power supply.

AMD Rules:
The Centurion 5 is made of steel, so it can't be that light. I hefted the Centurion 541 and it didn't seem that light either.
 
well all i can say is i have one and it can tip over pretty easly if you are not careful....w/e
