I've been using my AMD K6-2+ based retro PC for quite a while now, and I'm very happy with how it turned out. It's been my gaming station and a writing station (Multi-Edit for DOS is still my favourite text editor out there, and writing in a distraction-free environment is incredibly productive).
However, it has one downside: it's a full-size ATX system which means that it's a bit too large, especially now, since both me and my wife are going to work from home for the foreseeable future.
I would like to assemble another retro PC based on my VIA EPIA 800 which is a mini-ITX motherboard featuring DOS-compatible integrated sound. However, I also want to use an external graphics card (S3 Savage 4 PCI) and a full-size CD-ROM drive with it.
So, my question is: what is the smallest currently available ITX case with an expansion slot and a 5.25" bay? I don't need anything superficial such as front USB sockets etc (the motherboard doesn't have a standard USB header anyway).
