    I love how tiny this is, but not being able to fit at least a flex psu and bigger itx gpu is kind of a deal breaker for me. I think I'll be happy with the velka 3 clone I got off AliExpress... if it ever gets here.
    Maybe I'll do a build in this case too and just keep whichever I end up liking more.

    This could have a somewhat bigger brother with space for additional storage so it can be used as a compact NAS/home server. The only option to add more storage into this is to use a half-height M.2 PCIe expander card.

    Great reviews of SFF builds. The landscape of SFF cases continues to change, evolve and get better. Suggestion for the next build. Start with GEEEK G4 4.8L case & Flex PSU, then build a Ryzen 5700G system with DD4-3600 RAM and go from there. The case looks like it has some potential, since it supports a bottom and top 92mm X 15mm fan, would that help thermals? Build and find out.

    This is pretty frikkin sweet. I think when you originally released your video about the J-Hack Pure, I said how cool it would be to have this virtually cable-less build, if they just added a bay for a low-profile GPU. And well, now I feel like I have to put my money where my mouth is and buy one! Awesome little case. Only thing is that ridiculous riser cable, wonder if there already exists some kind of card you could use as a daughter-board.
