Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The front panel has a removable dust filter. The finish is slick feeling and nicely done inside and outside. The case is sturdy and easy to work on.

This is the best mini-itx case if you're going for smallest size case possible with your build. Smaller than most mini - itx cases, certainly the cheapest at this overall size.

The psu sits above the processor fan so if you have a larger cooler that may not be the best configuration for you but there is no other way to make the system as compact as this. Plenty of clearance for the wraith cooler included with amd cpus. Aio h...  Read More

The intake is the radiator's 120mm fan and the exhaust is the psu. Big fan (120mm or 140mm) in the front as inlet. Loudest thing is the gpu fan.



Cons

Stamped metal pieces are warped and don't sit flat. Poorly soldered wiring too. One snapped off when * it in.

Zero places to mount fans. I decided to not even use the sata slot, there is just no reasonable space left for the sata cables. The motherboard power cable is just so consuming of the limited space. No psu dust filter.

Headphone jack plays static when plugged in. Only when you press on the headphone plug really hard in the upwards direction, the audio plays stereo. Need to bend the headphoneplug really hard to the point of almost breaking.

Quality


Quality is pretty good and easy to remove extra panels to clear up space


The build quality is great and the buttonsfront panel ports are sturdy


Now that youre aware lets continue with the details you might want


Be careful with the front its attached by screws on the side of the frame and some tabs

Packaging/appearance


Packaging was adequate and the case was protected with styrofoam holders


The case is sturdy but you can expect a flexible panels so a tricky final packaging but the air flow is amazing

Competitiveness


Solid airflow only drawback is it really is designed for a watercooled cpu


Id definitely recommend using an sfx instead of fullsize atx power supply


It was a very tight fit and would not work with a 140mm fan


I picked up a noctua nfp12 redux 120mm fan and installed it in the front see photo

    It would have been better to have greater variety in the screw sizes so i dont get them so easily mixed up

    For sure you have to look out for dimensions and even with a modular psu there was no way to fit also the disk cady


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    With full size atx psu no way i could fit an air cooler for my ryzen 7 3700x so i used an old no rgb water cooler from coolermaster that i do not really recommend due to funny fans choice


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have a strange issue with front audio jack as it already starts having issues holding the jack i presume i am just lucky but as compact as it is damn if i return just for that my mb has audio over usb3 so i am fine with it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It is as big as a tall soda can an deep as 2 it really it does not take that much place


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    God help you if you have a gpu


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Get a modular power supply if you can afford it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not sure a front fan makes sense if you have a solid front like i do
