Awesome thankyou. This case looks just what I need for a bit of "downsizing" and I am impressed how flexible it is.

@TheBigBlueMarble 4 ай бұрын

This case could and should become the case that pre-built companies use. The flexibility of this case would make it possible to create almost any build for any customer.

I agree and a price that's compatible with that scenario too

@MrOnlinenow 4 ай бұрын

Actually, I would prefer to see the compatibility and cooling performance of air cooling in this case. Currently, the videos on KZbin all opt for water cooling.

@jezwinni107 4 ай бұрын

Sorry to spoil that video when you find it but it will be fine, and will look the same only with an air cooler instead of an aio.

@Dr_cHeNGo 4 ай бұрын

Same here. Feels like Lian lixDan told reviewers what they have to do :D … only found one guy building up with an air cooler

@CrazyTechLab 4 ай бұрын

Compatibility is just sub 165mm. There aren't really any other restrictions. Cooling performance will just depend on the size of the cooler/speed of fans and whether you add other fans to the case. TBH though it's more designed for AIO's. There are smaller MATX cases out there that would be better suited to air cooling, albeit maybe with less GPU and CPU cooler compatibility.

@jeremyg2236 4 ай бұрын

best config for air cooled setup is rear intake tbh. Otherwise it's still solid option, since the whole case is mesh panel, apart from the front ofc.

@lordpotashmallow2443 3 ай бұрын

@CrazyTechLab sure, it may have a lot of AIO compatibility, but this is the smallest mATX case I've seen that is able to have this big of an air cooler. Like another commenter said, bottom & rear intake with top (& maybe side) exhaust will work very well with a left to right air cooler. PSU might get a little choked, but it doesn't need that much air anyways.

Great review! I've seen a couple and as usual yours is the most detailed. Would be good to include some air-cooled stuff even just to show what it looks like with a large air cooler but great info regarding radiator compatibility and case quality.Thanks!

Looking forward to an air cooled build of this case

nice case for custom water cooled mini-itx pc for where you cant fit 2 rads and sfx psu + reservoir

@joshd108 4 ай бұрын

I have a similar case but the psu cannot slide down to open up another 120mm spot. A 240 aio is plenty for my cpu. I even squeezed in a 120mm aio on my gpu. Made a HUGE difference

would love to see a 7900 xtx nitro+ build here holyyy I hope it fits

@swizzler8053 Ай бұрын

Easily.

4:17 This is exactly why I dislike tool-free designs. All the flimsiness that tends to come with it and the possibility that your case with pop open while you're handing it. All because people are too lazy to turn a thumbscrew.

@Veyron_fan 4 ай бұрын

I would tend to think you could get noticeably better temps with a different cooling layout. Intaking from top for 1 is gonna suck all the dust down into the case that settles on the top. Then you've only got 1 little exhaust fan in the back and nothing in the bottom at all. With psu in side position, mount the AIO on the side panel intaking for optimal cpu cooling without pulling all that dust down, then you can mount full size exhaust fans in the top to get all that hot air out, and then if possible mount fans intaking in the bottom to feed the gpu cool fresh air. Even a couple slim fans on low speed would make a decent difference. 👍

This has the AIO exhausting out of the case through the roof. Not intaking.

@marius.n-m Ай бұрын

I Would love if you meassure from top of case and down to heatsink. So Knowe how thick radiator and fan it can takes. I did see your radiator/fan was close.

@Kanti12311 4 ай бұрын

Will you be building one when RTX 5090 come out? I'm looking to build one with AIO cooling.

@moxb 4 ай бұрын

Is it possible to mount 2x 280mm 30mm heat sinks with 25mm fans at the top and side with RTX 4070 Ti Super Tuf Gaming in this case?

@Just_Denys_13 2 ай бұрын

Nice video! If you don't hard, please drop the link to pdf manual, in the video.

@stancartmankenny 4 ай бұрын

it looks like if you put fans on the bottom (which is where the dust filter is), they will block the fourth pci slot. Is that right?

@EnnTomi1 4 ай бұрын

does it fit the liquid freezer iii ? 360

@yuricoia1590 4 ай бұрын

Nope

@CrazyTechLab 4 ай бұрын

I've requested a sample from ARCTIC so I can hopefully answer that soon and with future builds as I know they're popular. I have a Liquid freezer ii 240 with similar thickness - you'd need to use low height RAM and probably an SFX PSU to lower the PSU bracket another half inch or so.

Is the best the Case Jonsbo Z20 ;)

Can I remove the foot of the case so I can put it horizontally in my TV console (entertainment HTPC style) ?

Will the MSI project zero motherboard be okay for this case?

@Aggressive_Splooge Ай бұрын

360 rad on the top didn't fit in mine. The heatsinks on the mobo were 5mm to big... =(

@CrazyTechLab Ай бұрын

Is it a custom loop or an AIO?

@la009895 4 ай бұрын

what's the best air cooler that can fit in this?

@dark4yoyo 4 ай бұрын

Should fit a Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120SE no problem, and that's pretty much as good as it gets (and cheap as a bonus). I have one in my SAMA IM-01 clone which is a similar design but shorter and less width.

@CrazyTechLab 4 ай бұрын

Anything under the 165mm clearance. So as the guy below says - Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120SE also Noctua NH-D15, be quiet! DARK ROCK PRO 4.
