Aluminum Mini ITX Case with PCIe 3.0 Riser, JOYJOM Mini PC Case, SFF Small Form Factor PC Case, TX Computer Gaming Case Supports GPU Graphics Card (Black)

Build quality surpassed my expectations, a tight little case that looks great. My only suggestion would be more perforation for air flow. CPU stays cool enough but the gpu gets a little warm, an adjustment to fan curve fixes this, but extra air would allow for a quieter machine. Would buy again

Excellent mini ITX case! Once all the panels are on, it becomes very solid and is the smallest case I've ever worked with. For size comparison, the size of the monitor to the left is 15.6" portable display.Pros:~Smallest possible case that reasonably supports a single fan GPU~Solid structure~Easy to assemble/disassembleCons:~Paint scratches easily, especially around the screw holes~Poor heat management and airflow~Limited to a handful of CPU coolers and GPUs due to the small sizeOverall, it was an interesting build. I was able to run a Ryzen 7 5700X and a GTX 1050 Ti just fine under small loads. However, heat built up quickly when gaming, and since there are no fans mounted to the case for airflow, thermal throttling was inevitable. No space to install fans. I have seen some crazy DIY modifications to these cases to support larger components which is pretty neat but I preferred keeping my case stock.

I am very satisfied with how much I was able to shrink the footprint of my PC. I had a small 16L cube. This thing takes up less than half the size of it. I like aluminum cases. Aluminum is a soft metal and will scratch easy if you're rough with it, but it makes the case very light. No room for a traditional case fan. No problem. Heat has not been an issue whatsoever (I do not overclock, not a gaming hobbyist).I did need to get a low-profile CPU cooler, which I did not expect. I could have figured it out with the posted measurements, but assumed the "stock" CPU cooler would work. Only the 36mm height CPU coolers can fit here.Assembly was... like a solving a puzzle. Components need to be installed in the correct order. If you forget something you may find yourself needing to undo a lot of work to fix the situation. For example: did not install my m.2. storage drive before I put the motherboard in. The m.2. port is at the bottom of the motherboard. Can't access while installed because the GPU is blocking it. This means needing to remove the GPU extension, and removing either the GPU or the motherboard in order to get to the port.Overall, it was only tedious because of my own decisions and not because of the design of the case.Other important thing to note: only a 1u or flex atx power supply fits, and these do make some more noise than the typical PSU. BUT there is a custom option made by HDPlex that is fanless. It is a power converter that fits inside the case very easily, which you can then connect to a compatible power adapter. They recommend one on their website. This power situation makes this little case WAY more attractive.I'm definitely satisfied. If you want a small case go for it. It's a good price for a case and included PCIe Extension.

First of I love the size and design of this case. In black, it's very sleek and unassuming and very small. The major issue I found is the ventilation holes isn't big enough to allow proper airflow. With a i5 13400 and noctua l9i temps can get very toasty under gaming loads around 85c on the cpu. With that's within spec, long term it will shorten the lifespan, especially with the GPU. Overall if there is a version 2, I would recommend bigger vent holes.

A great budget alternative to the Velka 3. Overall satisfied considering the price, it even comes with a riser cable!Pros:- Building is a breeze, as all the panels and the middle come off- Looks pretty decent- Decent build qualityCons:Horrible airflow design for the cutouts leads to extremely high temps and insane turbulence. If you want to use the side panels, get standoffs or > 2mm thick magnets to create some space for airflow. A 3mm gap will eliminate the shrill turbulence sound as well.Stock temps (CPU & GPU): mid 80sStand-offs/magnets temps: high 60s - low 70sNo side panel temps: high 60s

Honestly if you like a challenge or really like doing mini itx/sff build this case if worth it for the price and my only complaint is just the panel screws tend to strip. Other than that I like this case, it save up a lot of room.

This case is great, nice and compact. The issue is that it ships with a PCI-E 3.0 Cable which will not function correctly with modern GPUs with up to date drivers. Due to the form factor of the case finding a PCI-E 4.0 riser cable has been a considerable challenge and I still have not found one that will fit. Very annoying. If it shipped with a PCI-E 4.0 cable would be 5/5 stars but due to the experience I have had trying to get different riser cables to fit, it is a 1/5 stars.

I bought two of these cases as a mini desktops and then started modding. Systems are both Asrock Z690m-itx, 14900k and a 12700K, 64gb Crucial ddr4-3200 with heatsink, 2x Crucial 2tb gen4, RX 6650xt and other 3070FE, both have a Intel RH1 cooler and 600 watt PS. (won't clear a stock Intel cooler without cutting out a hole in the side panel)Modded the case with a Dremel. Measured and cut the access for the cpu fan and GPU. Total time to mod each case with trial and error= 45 minutes.Temps go over 100 and throttled during benchmarks on the 14900k, but the 12700k was at 92 and got a better 3dmark score. Temps were 40-75 on Win11 with no case fans. For everyday and gaming, it is the smallest case I could find that would fit stuff.PCIe riser cable is gen3 and is replaceable with a Gen4 one if needed. Yes, I like the Intel RH1 cooler, the RGB's on it are cool, but not my thing.TLDR- Great case. Easy to mod for full size cards. Dremel's are great. 12700k runs cooler.
