I start to get a sore taste for this mini ITX, I wanted to get one so much, but case options, at least at mini itx don't satisfy me completely. Closest thing to my wish would still be the Prodigy, mostly due to the fact that I could place a fan vertically on top that would blow fresh filtered air directly on the Intel stock heat-sink, which would help better cool the cpu, even in hot summer days (ok, maybe I will give up the OC during hot summer days). Would reversing the airflow on the 250D, lateral's fan have the same effect? On the 250D I don't really like the drive cage position. To make things worse, the Prodigy is difficult to find, there are a few left at various CC locations, there a Fire Red one in WestIsland.

No chance to convince you to revisit the 380T is there? I'm liking mine, and the handle is functional. :)

That would be another option, especially if I could have it in bumblebee yellow!

I think I am going with the Core V1 : has the huge 200 mm fan, PSU is on the bottom, will probably let the plastic window on top but install 2 x 80 mm fans in the back, should I put them to exhaust air or for intake? And again, where do I get some good filters from?

The yellow ones are on sale @ncix w/ a free shipping code......😈
 
I have the Obsidian 250d, and I can't say enough good about it. I have 1x 140mm fan up front and 2x 120mm on the radiator on the side. And I could add a couple smaller fans in the back if I chose. Plus the layout is phenomenal for building in, and the build quality is excellent.
 
SG07/SG08. ATX PSU, 180mm fan blows air directly onto cpu/mobo as an intake.

I had forgotten about the SG13 as well when I made my vote between your original choices on the main page. Ah well.
