I've got a spare GPU, CPU, SSDs and PSU which is most of what's needed to build a new PC and I want to make one for my living room, somewhat like a Steam Machine.

Obviously though I want it to be as unobtrusive as possible so does anyone have any recommendations for a small case that would fit a regular ATX PSU as well as a decent small AM4 socket motherboard to put in it?

Other than buying a commercial case, I've also considered 3D printing one and there are a few that look interesting - does anyone have any experience of that?

The rationale is I want to reuse all my spare parts and the PSU is actually pretty decent but ATX is bulky for a really small case so that will make finding a compact one tricky.
Expensive memory is a bummer but I'm just looking to go with 4x second hand 8GB DDR4 modules which I think should be reasonably affordable as they are typically what gets discarded when people go for 32 or 64GB upgrades.

I have a Lian Li A3 mATX which supports a full ATX PSU (I have an SFX one in mine though).

The Jonsbo D32 Pro also supports an ATX PSU, but has GPU size limitations - https://www.jonsbo.com/en/products/D32PROBlack.htm...

I have a jonsbo d31 with atx, but good modular cables etc advised.

Also not sure if Streacom Da2 might take atx but getting crammed.

I’d get an sf750.

I have a da2 (black) with all the extras and an sf750 in storage, can’t find decent use for it.
I went to Jonsbo d31 but now also to full tower again. Shove it under desk where you can’t see or hear it biggrin

I bought a standard ATX sized tower for my media PC. I wasn't too fussed over the size as it matches the furniture and covers the unsightly plug sockets and cables on the wall behind it.
