So this case is about 33% smaller than my last ITX case. Everything fit, but just barely. It took much longer than I anticipated to build, and there is no way I am opening up and swapping components. I literally threw away all the extra wires, etc... and I sent back two Nocturna fans - because there was literally zero extra room. That being said, so far there have been no problems with it running hot, which I attribute to the liquid CPU cooler and placement of the video card. This is also not the case if you want RGB lights. The video card and the liquid cooler block almost all the light coming through. My build was: 1. AMD Ryzen 9900X 2. CoolMaster V850 SFX gold (you have to use SFX power) 3. ARTIC Liquid Freezer III Pro A-RGB - 240m. RGB was wasted, and it's really thick. I wish I had gotten something thinner. It barely fit in there, and I had to jury-rig it slightly to make it work. 4. Samsung 990 4T 5. Cosair Vengance DDR5 64G 6000Mhz 6. ASUS TUF GeForce 5070 12G 7. Gigabyte B850i ITX Read more
This case is absurdly good, especially for the money. Very easy to build with, very small, looks great, works great. The slight upgrade is a NCase M2 grater, but that's $380 after shipping and the required accessory for vertical mounting the GPU. It's really hard to justify the 3.5x price for the NCase. Read more
Good case. I have the original V1 and the finish of this newer version feels much nicer. It's also one of the few Mini-ITX cases that can house some of the RTX 5090 AIB shroud. Reason for the 4 stars: the original and V2 designs are nicer (personal opinion), the rear mounting plate for GPUs to "slide/attach" in separately after all your other interior components are done is not built rugged enough for heavy GPUs, and finally, I would have thought Cooler Master would have done a better job designing the top mounting system for radiators/AIOs. Not that there's anything particularly wrong with it but there are other cases that I own and seen over the years that do this better and in a more modern way. For the price, it's a great case and has been relevant over the years for a reason. Read more
Awesome case. Looks clean, and I was able to fit my ASUS Tuff Gaming 4080 Super (348mm) paired with a Ryzen 9 7950X3D and an ID Cooling 240mm AIO. The temps are great, around 48°C on my GPU and around 60-65°C for the CPU while gaming. Read more
Best PC Mini itx case out there Read more
Great case for a itx build with a 9070 oc card. Only thing is I needed to buy a thinner profile pci riser cable and raise the gpu on back mounts with spacer to get gpu up a bit. This made it so I could fit 120mmX25mm fans under the gpu for intake and got the 140s up top. Great case otherwise. Read more
High quality case made with great material. Had to return it since it didn’t fit my GPU. Fit length wise but it was too thick slot wise. And made my GPU sag by a few mm. The case closed but I could see the sag. Cable management was good because I was able to fit in the cables neatly but still sad on the last step the GPU didn’t fit. Read more
Great SFF case for someone just getting into smaller builds. The biggest issue I faced was the included riser cable being way too stiff and a bit too short. Installation is a very tight fit and the short length forces you to have to mount the GPU farthest from the side panel, so larger GPUs are even more difficult to install. Otherwise, its a very good case for the price and a decent amount of space to work considering the size. Hopefully they'll update the riser cable to a better version for future buyers. Read more
