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

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.

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.

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.

Consider looking into 3D-printed cases, if you have access to a printer or thought about it. Lots of nice small designs out there.

$240 with no fans. Not that I will need a new case anytime soon, but that is ridiculous for a narrow 011 clone

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.

Oh for sure. I just meant this one didn’t do anything different than the 011 and is more expensive. And well…trash quality
