I've been using the NR200 P Max for about a year and I don't regret my choice. I love itx format but had enough of those cases where you can only fit one little 120mm cpu cooler. The NR200p max comes with an included 280mm AIO watercooling, a sfx psu and a Pcie 4.0 riser. Best value. Great cooling and very low noise level. 👍
@@TaxiDiver100 I should have specified with the vented side panel. Machines & More tested some configs and arrived at bottom and exhaust and top exhaust (side intake directly at gpu).
@@maxwellgriffithThe case sits on my desk, on my right side.and I found out the glass panel really soften the noise, so I'm using it... Maybe I sacrified some performance in exchange for some more silence, but that's fine for me.
@@maxwellgriffith I had it as intake and the AIO at top as exhaust and that worked really well for temps. Was even better than I thought in terms of impact.
Love that you share thoughts on Cases you can actually find in stock, I actually had a similar thought with the North and Terra and tweeted it to Fractal a while back "Hey, a North itx version, something to think about huh.." and they responded "We will certainly pass on your suggestion to our design team.", thanks for sharing and keep those build coming!
My favorite case of all time is the Dan Case C4 SFX and it's a terrible shame more people couldn't get their hands on it due to limited production. I got one on Amazon for $270 like two days before it dropped off and never came back. I'll cherish this case for a very long time and i'm very lucky to have gotten it.
I actually have a silver C4. It's a great case and it has no problems housing huge graphics cards. I also love the fact it supports 135mm air coolers. That said, I'm currently looking into downsizing to the Formd T1.
The FormD T1 is my favorite. I ordered a titanium colored one that is arriving tomorrow. I'm still gathering parts, but when I saw the case in stock, I jumped on it.
@MarigoldAW For some reason my reply keeps getting deleted. But yeah, they have it in stock. Their old site doesn't update so you need to find their new one. I try to include it in my reply but I think that's what gets it deleted.
While it may not be as well-built or visually interesting as the cases mentioned here, I think the A4-H2O is also worth considering. It was fairly easy to build in even for a SFF newcomer like myself, and it's very reasonably priced.
I loved the S300 build you did and ended up building a ITX PC for my mom taking tips from your video. It is a sleek build and the included handle really makes it a portable option.
@@ItsPhurpl yes, but easy is not necessarily the main objective for everyone. I want to be able to choose my own PSU and cooler/radiator for example and I don't care if it takes a bit longer to build or if it is more complicated.
I wish I got my hands on a DAN C4-SFX. The Fractal Terra is kind of bad, since the noiseprofile of the slitted sidepanels is very annoying and you can't fit a 4090 (or most other cards) without downsides to CPU-cooling. Using a NR200P Sakura Limited Edition atm. My secondary PC is in a Densium 4+ V1 (5L), very similar to the Velka 3, but it is longer, fitting upto 220mm cards. 1x 4070 fits with a little modding.
The issue with the NR200 Max is that CM doesn't sell the case by itself. I want the interior redesign for top radiator mounting but I don't need the PSU or the AIO.
@@bri1085 If you mean the NR200P V2 I would say it's not worth the price increase vs the normal NR200, especially since it only supports vertical GPU mounting and doesn't have any advantage in motherboard and PSU compatibility.
This is my itx wrapped of the year. I’ll love to see you build in one of the Chinese brand itx cases. Budget friendly but highly exceeded my expectations.. try the shiny snake s300 or s400 I’m seeing no youtubers building with these
He has built in the s300. One of the best videos on TH-cam for building in that case. I bought one this past blackfriday along with parts for my son's build this weekend.
Really nice summary of your ITX builds. I've watched all of them, and the content and production quality in your videos keeps getting better and better. Excellent stuff. Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
I think the Lian LI Q58 shouldn't be overlooked. Built my first SFF in it and I think that for someone who has many drives, it is one of the best cases to use!
I built my wifes new ITX Gaming machine in this KXRORS S400 - Mini-ITX PC Gaming Case - It's a great case that you may want to look into. The handle on top makes it a good choice for LAN parties.
Surprised to not see the Meshroom D on the list. Especially since you got such incredible thermals on it. Awesome video, as always! Thanks for all of your hard work.
My biggest gripe with FormD T1 is for the price point they give you zero front IO... Not to mention to even get ONE type C USB you have to buy a separate kit for it at 45 dollars... Meanwhile the Fractal Terra is priced even lower at the same volume and gives you USB 3.2 and Type C.
Hey guys, I’m actually thinking about doing an ITX build myself (first time ever). I could really use some help on picking the right parts, do you see any problems with the following setup?: Case: fractal terra (black) Motherboard: ASRock B650i lightning WiFi CPU: Ryzen 7800x3D CPU Cooler: ID-Cooling IS-55 GPU: ASUS ProArt 4080 Super RAM: 2x16gb DDR5 Vengeance 6000Mhz SSD: Samsung 990 Pro 2tb Power: Corsair SF750 Fan: Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM Fan grill 120mm Cables: Corsair premium 600W 12+4 pin
I saw your s300 video. I will be building in it this weekend for my sons first gaming pc. I wanted something small but more budget friendly and i think itll do the trick!
The new Fractal ERA 2 looks very interesting and I'd like to see how the integrated dual SSD caddy actually works in a speed test with the new gen 4 SSDs. Hope you get around to building in this soon. Also to use the new Thermal Take SFX PSU. That could be very handy for power connections.
Great video once again dude! My favourite is the current one I have (Xtia Xproto ATX case (the V1 version). It is under 17 litres and it has everything I could ask for and more so won’t upgrade that case any time soon
I'm really struggling to choose between the T1 and the terra. I love how compact and clean the T1 is, but the Terra's walnut piece looks so good, I js don't know how to choose loll
1 month late I’m sure you already found your answer but I would eliminate fractal from your list, for the size and amount of cooling it provides, not only is it just as big as any other cases, it doesn’t support water cooling like the t1, Dan a4 h20, iqunix. I would recommend the h20 due to how safe the choice is in price/availability, cooling, size, and quality. The only annoying issue I have with h20 is the material lian li uses, just never been a fan of the material they used for their cases.
when you said you wonder about the terra having a front similar to the north and I immediately thought if the terra was 17mm longer and if the front panel was slotted like the side panels but completely walnut, making room for a 120mm/140mm slim fan.
Any news on the NR200P V2? It was supposed to hit the market in February, but when I directly asked Cooler Master they did not even have the official specs yet. I'd like confirmation that it will actually fit my TUF 7900 XT 🙂 as PCWorld claimed in their CES video. Would be great to see this on this channel.
I'd like to ask, is the NR 200p max offers big improvements over the nzxt h1? I checked them, and the 200p max for me costs 3 times the price of the h1. Is the price increase actually somewhat justified? I only want to build a midrange PC in it, but for futureproofing, i'm ok with the extra cost.
I hope you could try out more ITX cases from China as there are a ton of options there (metalfish, aklla, jonsbo etc.) I specifically found interest in the Metalfish T40, hoping you could check that one out too 😊 cheers!
I recently built in a Cyberwood M1 Mini-ITX case and rather like it, but it's probably not worth covering since it doesn't stand out from other sandwich style cases (besides being made out of plywood).
My favourite is the KXRORS (known as Shiny Snake in Asia) S300, 400 and 500. Also I believe your channel has never featured the ITX cases from AKKLA or Mechanical Master?
I wish there was a case similar to the H1 v2 but with a large fan at the top similar to the series x. Mine is loud and runs pretty hot with the lack of airflow.
hey devyn, you should check out the JIMU D+, it was originally a formd t1 clone but its very much its own case. the formd t1 actually took some features from it. id love to see you do a comparison of the two.
@@devyn.johnston ZZAW, Jonsbo, Metalfish (last two are available on Amazon too I think, not sure about the stock though) -- also I remember they also have a Ghost S1 clone as well
@@devyn.johnstonyou should check out the jimu d+, its very similar to the formd t1 but has better gpu support and cooler support (by 2mm), is a litre less in volume and is more than a kilo lighter.
Should had included the case from Lunchbox Gaming PC video, so compact and i got a 3080 and a i7 11700 running on it. My favorite case, amazing price and sturdy.
As someone who doesnt use headphones and is irritated by fan noise, are these loud or can they be quiet? My current computer is a bit older now and needs replacing, and I'm so irritated by the hissing sound the fans make when I do almost anything..
i wonder is it also possible to mount the AIO on the T1 on the top cause having it mounted on the bottom will kill the aio slowly overtime or like swap the bottom plate and top plate around to the aio gets to the top?
I'm am currently building it with i7-13700 just waiting on all the parts to arrive, I think it should be fine checking the compatibility on NOC site with the cooler he used it says it's fine to use.
The vid is 5months old now so super excited for an update next month! You should do a top itx cases in the current market. Have some categories like best budget, mid range, high end, portable, vertical, most compatible etc categories.
I always wonder why the Thorzone cases don’t make these shortlists. The materials feel significantly more premium than most of these other brands. More expensive but you get what you pay for.
Nice video, thank you. I'm looking to build my wife a sffpc basically for work (MS office, Internet, nothing gaming) and am looking at a MB (Asus z790) and CPU (14900k) with 64 or 96gb ram and want it to handle 2 4k monitor w/out a GPU. All air-cooled with the Noctua NH-L12S (or larger if able to). Building this all inside the Fractal Design Ridge case. However your video has given me some nicer options as I'd like to display the PC but wife only wants it on the floor. What do you think of this (pro/con) and what case (absolute favorite that she would want to display it), CPU and MB would you recommend? Thank you.
I think it's a shame you didn't mention the Meshroom D from SSUPD. Perhaps availability is a tad spotty (especially in Europe, I can't find one anywhere) but it seems like a great case for what it is based on your video. Awesome production quality as per usual! 🔥
@@KG_BM True, I wish SSUPD made more of an effort to get this case out there tbh, I personally have a build lined up just waiting for the thing to be sold somewhere in Europe. 🤞 It's odd how it never got into the hands of some reviewers who had already looked at the Meshroom S prior.
Would be cool to see an Air Cooled mid range build in the Asus Prime AP201. Its such a nice looking case while being fairly affordable and it being M-ATX makes it more cost effective in terms of parts.
But it looks big for a m-Atx case. I would consider one of the more compact SAMA IM01 clones (Itek, Nox, etc). Sized and looks similar to NR200, but with m-Atx support. Although there are no recent YT builds on it for AM5, and from what I have read, some motherboards that have bottom IO are not compatible.
@@dexter_hacks The size of the AP201 is actually not that big of a deal to me , I already have an M-ATX (5700x/RX6600)build in a DLM 21 and I was thinking about changing cases so the AP201 looked appealing. Another reason im looking at the AP201 is because its one of the smallest cases I can find in local stores where I live and ive never bought anything off of places like Aliexpress and im worried if the cases comes damaged or something on how to deal with warranty and stuff , buying computer parts off local stores is a lot easier for me.
Hi. I am trying to build my first PC and I happen to have 12900E CPU, 2x16gb DDR5 SODIMM and 1TB NVMe. Do have any recommendations for MB and GPU? I mainly play Ark. Thanks!
Does a Gigabyte RTX 4090 Gaming OC fit in an NR200P Max? GPU specs is 340 mm and clearance on the NR is 336mm but has anyone managed to squeeze on in and done so safely?

Very portable. I fit it in a 40L backpack with plenty of room to spare (probably like 5-10 liters of extra space).
I would say looks wise it can easily keep up with cases mentioned in the video. And at the same time it's not expensive as some mentioned here.

The NR200p and NR200p Max are not the same case! The NR200p has no top radiator option (without modifications), which is a real bummer.
That’s because only the p variant supports horizontal gpu orientations, which won’t allow room for top radiators d/t motherboard height

I always wonder why the Thorzone cases don’t make these shortlists. The materials feel significantly more premium than most of these other brands. More expensive but you get what you pay for.
Nice video, thank you. I'm looking to build my wife a sffpc basically for work (MS office, Internet, nothing gaming) and am looking at a MB (Asus z790) and CPU (14900k) with 64 or 96gb ram and want it to handle 2 4k monitor w/out a GPU. All air-cooled with the Noctua NH-L12S (or larger if able to). Building this all inside the Fractal Design Ridge case. However your video has given me some nicer options as I'd like to display the PC but wife only wants it on the floor. What do you think of this (pro/con) and what case (absolute favorite that she would want to display it), CPU and MB would you recommend? Thank you.
The Q58 goes hard
Terra is best look!
ITX is such a cool form factor
NR200P has different design from NR200P Max. It has only 2 slots gpu support and does not support top liquid cooling mount
Can I use a atx regular power supply?
I think it's a shame you didn't mention the Meshroom D from SSUPD. Perhaps availability is a tad spotty (especially in Europe, I can't find one anywhere) but it seems like a great case for what it is based on your video.
Awesome production quality as per usual! 🔥
@@KG_BM True, I wish SSUPD made more of an effort to get this case out there tbh, I personally have a build lined up just waiting for the thing to be sold somewhere in Europe. 🤞
It's odd how it never got into the hands of some reviewers who had already looked at the Meshroom S prior.
Thank you for the rundown. Really enjoying the videos on this channel.
Great video, surprised the Corsair 2000D didn't make it into the list.
Would be cool to see an Air Cooled mid range build in the Asus Prime AP201. Its such a nice looking case while being fairly affordable and it being M-ATX makes it more cost effective in terms of parts.
But it looks big for a m-Atx case. I would consider one of the more compact SAMA IM01 clones (Itek, Nox, etc). Sized and looks similar to NR200, but with m-Atx support. Although there are no recent YT builds on it for AM5, and from what I have read, some motherboards that have bottom IO are not compatible.
@@dexter_hacks The size of the AP201 is actually not that big of a deal to me , I already have an M-ATX (5700x/RX6600)build in a DLM 21 and I was thinking about changing cases so the AP201 looked appealing. Another reason im looking at the AP201 is because its one of the smallest cases I can find in local stores where I live and ive never bought anything off of places like Aliexpress and im worried if the cases comes damaged or something on how to deal with warranty and stuff , buying computer parts off local stores is a lot easier for me.
Which ITX case has the most room for future upgradability e.g. 5090?
So far none. We don't know how big or small next gen cards will be. They could stay same size, but also can increase in size
10:54 what case are you holding is both hands here?
Can you fit strix 4090 on those case?
Hi. I am trying to build my first PC and I happen to have 12900E CPU, 2x16gb DDR5 SODIMM and 1TB NVMe. Do have any recommendations for MB and GPU? I mainly play Ark. Thanks!
Nice video. I think timestamps for each case would be really helpful.
Does a Gigabyte RTX 4090 Gaming OC fit in an NR200P Max? GPU specs is 340 mm and clearance on the NR is 336mm but has anyone managed to squeeze on in and done so safely?
built using the iqnix and that case is something else
Wish you put the list and the names of the cases in description
Can you fit micro atx case in these ?
is the pump on that aio on the rad
I thought the FormD T1 has been out of production. Website says they will be back.
edit: My bad I didn't hear the section on the T1
Nice.....can you update the indexes for video seeking ?
