Mini ITX Case with PCIE 4.0 Riser, Mini PC Case Chassis, SFF Small Form Factor PC Case, TX Computer Gaming Case Supports Graphics Card (Aluminum Black)

I really like it so far, even though I haven’t completed the build yet. I’ll likely update my review once it’s finished. The size is just right for my needs.

Overall the case felt sturdy and for a mini-itx build wasn't too terrible difficult to assemble. Keep in mind with a lot of mini-itx cases, if you put one thing in wrong, then you may have to take it all apart to fix it. You do have to buy very specific components and add-ons which is why I gave this 3 stars.Observations:1. This case only supports a 36mm-37mm CPU cooler. (Noctua NH-L9a-AM5 will fit)2. The power cable for your GPU will block you from connecting the top usb port to the mobo. I bought the left version of this cable (SinLoon 8-Pin Extension Cord PCIE 8 Pin Female to Right Angle Male PCIE Express Power Adapter Cable for Graphics Card 18AWG 15CM/5.9Inch (Left)) (required)3. I bought mesh sides to replace the metal ones for better air flow (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09Y336F2R?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title) (optional)4. I replaced the PCI 3.0 cable with a PCI 4.0 cable (optional). The PCI 3.0 cable worked fine with a Zotac 4060. Make sure you buy a 180 deg, reversed PCIe cable. If you find that the PCI 3.0 cable isnt working, it's probably your bios settings, GPU drivers or in my case I had to set my GPU to run at a minimum clock.5. I bought an nvme heatsink (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09DBF8FX1?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1) (optional). Cheap add-on for helping maintain one of the hottest components.6. Someone mentioned that the screws would strip, I did not notice that when assembling and disassembled (several times). I did use a precision screw driver set with the correct heads. They also send you more than enough screws.Improvements I wish they would make:The usb / gpu power cable issue is just bad. They clearly wont work together and there are only a handful of GPUs small enough to fit in this case, so it's not like testing this wouldve been unfeasible. Had to buy a extension cable to make this work (see above)The metal sides should be mesh (see above). There is no room for other fans for input and exhaust so you'll only have your CPU and GPU fans available. The air they push gets bounced back on the metal sides leading to higher component temperatures.
