That's a really small case, how was working on it? Also, given its size, 150W PSU and lack of room for a GPU card, am I right assuming that it's for an HTPC?

 
Pretty much a build for someone, small system for older games and smaller AA games with video here and there. It was tight, the motherbaord took up all the space and connecting everything was a little bit of a hassle, cable management was ok i suppose, just tucked in cables where i could. The SSD was a little difficult to connect and mount so I removed the HDD bracket (it wasn't being used anyway) but that's my only real complaint. I could see a taller cooler being a problem with this case too. 

Specs are:

R5 2400G
3000MHz 16GB (2x8) RAM (2933MHz due to motherboard) - corsair vengence lpx
Noctua - nh- l9a cooler
250gb 970 evo
250gb crucail SSD
Gigabyte b450i motherboard 

I see. An AMD APU was the best (almost only?) option, and I see you went with the best one. That someone will surely enjoy it, even if it's for non-demanding games.

And thanks for your feedback on the build, I'm always curious about how it is working on such cramped cases. The last two times I've changed my PC I've thought about going small factor, mATX rather than mini as I have several HDDs and need the extra SATA ports, but I always end with regular sized ones.



Please excuse my bad English.
