I recently built a system based on a Micro-ATX motherboard and a Micro-ATX case. -ITX. I love small cases, but didn't want to pay too much for a "small size" since SFF parts are usually more expensive. It wasn't long before I was itching to upgrade to the ITX platform every day, which was driving me almost insane. That would mean I would have to spend over $300 to get a Mini-ITX mobile device ($120), an NR200 case ($80), and a small form factor power supply ($120). to get. That didn't happen. A few days ago I came across a post about this case and it said that very few Micro-ATX mainboards are actually suitable for this case. Coincidentally, one of these boards was the board in my system. In this case, the ATX power supply is without a cable tie mount. If everything goes well, only the extra charge I w is worth $80 in this case. It's time to discuss some assembly details. X 120mm White LED PWM Fan Aresgame 500W 80+ Bronze PSUCase I chose this case for its neat looks, relatively low price and of course its compatibility with my motherboard. I was very pleasantly surprised upon unpacking this suitcase.1. Build Quality - Heavy doesn't always mean high quality, but light weight usually means poor quality. This case is surprisingly heavy and durable2. Extras: Many accessories included: 1 x 92mm PWM fan, 1 x 120mm PWM fan, 2 x fan grills, 3-way fan splitters, vertical GPU mount, small cable ties and a pair of Velcro straps. Motherboard - My Micro-ATX motherboard (230mm x 201mm) barely fits in this case. Only 4 mounting screws are for ITX boards, but that doesn't bother me too much since the GPU is held by screws on the PCI.2 bracket. Connectors - The audio jack on the front panel was too short for this motherboard. But I never, ever use it, so it's not a problem for me. Everything else fits and comes well.3. CPU Cooler - CoolerMaster states a distance of up to 155mm, Freezer 7 X at 132.5mm fits easily.4. GPU - Since my phone is Micro-ATX, I had to use the bottom two slots on the PCI bar. This leaves no space for installing fans on the bottom of the case.5. PSU - My ATX PSU is attached to the front panel with cable ties. You can buy 3D printed brackets to attach the ATX to the NR200 power supply from *bay, but this has an additional cost and I'm cheap.6. Fan - Uses the included fan splitter to install 3 fans per fan slot. 1 x 92mm fan, 2 x 120mm fan on the top of the case also as a fan. The PSU fan also blows air into the top of the case. Performance / Thermals The system is just as cool compared to my micro-ATX case with 5 x 120mm fans. Despite the cramped space, the directional airflow where everything is vented through the top is really great in this case. .I have not overclocked and do not plan to overclock my CPU beyond the base 4.2GHz PBO, idle (35°C to 45°C), under load (60°C to 72°C), steep enough for my use. The GPU sits very close to the lower mesh panel and gets plenty of fresh air, idle (32°C - 38°C), load (60°C - 70°C). In general, everything went much better than I expected. The case looks AMAZING, I have no regrets. I hope this information is useful for someone!
