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)

I was able to put in a single slot card to hold 4x PCI-e NVMe card from Sabrent. This ended up being a great little UnRaid NAS that's 5TB of NVMe storage. It's quiet, and plenty of power to host some dockers. The case is not as thick of metal you'd expect but it is sturdy once assembled. The finish is fine and the edges aren't sharp. I was able to fit the power supply in just enough, but this case is definitely cramped due to its size. You can't really do anything about that because it's designed to be that small.

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/disassemble Cons: ~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 size Overall, 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 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.

Got my system up and running with the included riser cable and it crashed constantly. So I took out the cable and booted everything on its own, no issues. Then I read that the riser is PCIE gen 3, my components were gen 4 so I tried to force gen 3. Still crashed with the riser. Tried reseating the riser again and it straight up died. If you want this case, get a separate PCIE riser and just avoid the headache.

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.

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 quality Cons: 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 80s Stand-offs/magnets temps: high 60s - low 70s No side panel temps: high 60s

Amazing mini ITX case, the looks are super optimal and the case can fit a decent variety of parts. if you do use this case I recommend using a AM4 or LGA1200 or lower end LGA1700 series motherboard and CPU that way your not consuming alot of power or generating a bunch of heat. fits a 1u flex power supply (I recommend a modular psu). temps are not the greatest by default so you will need to under-volt the pc. All in all this is a fun little build and and only took me 30 minutes to put everything together and get it running.

Velka 3 on a budget, bad airflow so it gets real warm, worth it for the price though

Budget, very small case, ideal for building a portable pc.

Respecto al gabinete en sí, tiene un acabado bastante bonito en plata, y se puede desarmar por completo para poder cablear y colocar los componentes más fácilmente, y se siente bastante solido, incluso más que algunos gabinetes mid-tower de marcas grandes. Definitivamente inspira suficiente confianza como para poder meter el pc completo en una mochila y llevártelo a otro lugar, y lo puedes encontrar también en negro o blanco. Es un gabinete supercompacto con una buena distribución del espacio, ya que te soporta la placa mini itx, una grafica de escritorio (ojo que tiene que ser de un largo similar al de la placa para que no choque con el gabinete, casi siempre las marcan como variantes ''ITX'' o tarjetas de perfil bajo), y te soporta hasta dos unidades de 2.5'' SATA. Respecto a disipadores de calor, no cabe nada más grande que un NH-L9 o un JONSBO HP400, por lo cual es necesario restringirse a un CPU de 65W o menos, que hoy en día no es tan malo como lo era antes de la era de la DDR4.

Although the case is well built, if you intend to use a PCI-E card, you will not be able to secure the cars to the case, the PCI-E bracket on the motherboard does not have a card or so.you can't "fix" the card to the case, hard to explain but you can see my image for more details

Build case, though there not much guide but super easy to build in.
