I have utilize the i5-3470t in an antec mini skeleton case. Keep in mind that my build retains all the slide out functionalities (slide out optical drives, hard drives, easy access to the motherboard) ; Also, keep in mind that using this case one"s power supply is limited to a 91watt brick. Also, any graphics card that will make a noticeable difference simply will not fit without major modification to the point it destroys the functionality of the case. The i5-3470t has a TDP of 35 watts, more or less, 2 cores instead of 4, and it let"s me retain all the functionality of the mini skeleton. I have seen many, mini skeleton builds; all highly modified to the point that the case cease to function, and losses it"s uniqueness .
