    For a $240 case, no review is going to make me want to buy it, but god is it funny to watch Steve’s frustration with it.

        Some cases are worth it tho, even for 249€ with no fans, eg. the Phanteks NV9. Size, space for radiators and fans, RGB built + controller + addon kit etc.

      You must not build SFF PCs. $150-$200 is pretty standard in that space, though there are definitely some great budget ITX cases.

        This doesn’t look like small form factor to me, if that’s what SFF stands for.

          Oh no, this one isn’t. Just saying that it’s common in that niche space. I personally spent about $200 for my case, and the price was not my fave but the case is super portable and I love that about it.

            Consider looking into 3D-printed cases, if you have access to a printer or thought about getting one. Lots of nice small designs out there. For the price of one of your cases, you can get an excellent printer already.

            I’m guessing that’s a mini-ITX? Yeah I can forgive a case which is highly optimized for small form factor, but this case is if anything the opposite.
