Review: Best ITX case i ever had - From the packaging to the accessories, this product is really well made! It's by far the easiest case to disassemble/assemble i ever had! And it also includes a very useful step by step illustrated guide! The PCIe riser is solid and precise! Same quality as rackmount server risers that cost hundreds! It took less than a hour for me to assemble everything in the case, including organizing the cables. I have big hands, so, it's hard for me to work with compact stuff. Even with that, I had no issues to assemble all the components inside the case. The fans are silent and efficient. Overall, the case is very good for it's price. It's compact and have a good appearance, even if you use it as a home theater in the living room. The only thing you should be aware of it: You need a SFX sized power supply. ATX won't fit on the case. Also, this case is mini ITX only. It won't support Micro ATX mobos besides the description saying otherwise. Review: Seriously rewarding case to build - but make sure you plan your build! - Amazing fantastic case, the sense of rewardingness is insane after you build it. For context this was my first ITX build and I loved every second of it. Space is tight yes and you have to be smart about somethings. My major issues with this case were: - 27mm thick CPU AIO (liquid) coolers will not fit at all depending on some GPU's. Im unsure if others have had luck with this but my RTX 2060 mini's housing was sticking out too much for the custom cooler to fit so I had to send it back and use the case fans. Im assuming if you had a low profile or used thinner fans on the cooling radiator, it may fit. - The Noctua NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.black, Low-Profile CPU Cooler for AMD AM4 (Black) I bought had a slight issue. You'll notice the two screws that go into the back are unable to go in due to the motherboard back frame covering a bit so the screws will NOT go in. I had to use my angle grinder to create a cut off edge, enough for a screwdriver to fit in the philps head but not enough to destroy integrity. - My motherboard was a gigabyte b550i and the front case panel comes with a USB connector and USB 3 connector. My mobo only came with one which was my own fault. So make sure your motherboard has support for this. - When installing the M.2 from the front side, if your M.2 sticks up too much, the screw is inside the screw (as dum as that sounds) so you need to get a thin nozzle plier and twist the screw out of the supporting socket so it sits flush with the cooling plate. Everything else was great. Cabling was quite fun as well, since you have ancor points so my build was quite neat and tidy. The only other issue is noise but using stock case fans can result in this. With time, I'll invest in proper cooling as right now I'm running in silent mode and getting a good temp. Overall a really good value for money and everything was great. ## Features - An uncluttered, small form factor case designed to integrate seamlessly into your living space and daily rituals.

If your GPU and motherboard support PCI-E 5.0, you would need to enter BIOS/UEFI and set the PCIe slot configuration to PCIe 4.0 for optimal system stability. **Q: Is the Ridge PCIe 4.0 riser card compatible with the Node 202?** A: The two are not compatible due to different design, size and mounting location of the Riser. We do not currently have any plans on making a PCIe 4.0 riser for the Node 202. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best ITX case i ever had *by E***A on 5 September 2024* From the packaging to the accessories, this product is really well made!

Irs a great SFF case allowing for a decent itx build inside whilst looking like a console and thus not out of place. I opted to use a 120mm aio with the AMD 5600x and temps are very good, the case is stood up with the ve tilation panels oriented so the fans can pull the air across the radiator. I also used 3 x 80mm fan's along one edge to provide more fresh airflow. We only used a single fan 1660ti which fitted very comfortably along side the aio setup. I would certainly recommend this case for anyone wanting to build an itx setup that resembles a console. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fractal Design Ridge Black - PCIe 4.0 Riser Card Included - 2X 140mm PWM Aspect Fans Included - Type C USB - m-ITX PC Gaming Case - Noctua NH-L12S, Premium Low Profile CPU Cooler with Quiet 120mm PWM Fan (Brown) - CORSAIR SF750 (2024) Fully Modular Low Noise 80 Plus Platinum ATX Power Supply – 3.1 Compliant – PCIe 5.1 Ready – SFX-to-ATX Bracket Included – Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/527326436-ridge-black-pcie-4-0-riser-card-included-2x-140mm](https://www.desertcart.it/products/527326436-ridge-black-pcie-4-0-riser-card-included-2x-140mm) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
