Aluminum Mini ITX Case with PCIe 3.0 Riser, JOYJOM Mini PC Case, SFF Small Form Factor PC Case

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.

Riser that came with it a bit short and airflow is limited with the mesh design. Heats up fast but the aluminum case did cool down fast when AC was on but if you’re in a place with no ac it’s going to heat up. Cable management was good and fits everything as advertised. The material is pretty good too and I liked that the front panel came off. Just components heats up because the airflow is limited due to the mesh design. If the front panel had some perforations and if the mesh design allowed for more airflow I think that it will be a really good ITX case.

Despite the panels bowing, this case is sturdy and clean. I honestly love the simplicity and efficient use of space for the components. This is a great looking little case. Heat management could be better improved by removing the panels altogether, but playing at reasonable settings (medium/mid-high) didn't melt my parts. I plan to mod the panels to get some better airflow. Overall, a great and inexpensive alternative sff case!
