First of all one thing, the case is really very small. In terms of volume were six (!) Of these Minis easily fit inside in my Corsair 750D and you would still have some air.
Processing:
I have so far only rarely had a case which is processed so clean. No quirks, almost all components are bolted (only the floor is riveted), an excellent fit and, thanks to the material, very light.
Appearance:
Small and precious. More we can not say because actually. The system can be easily placed anywhere without any noticeable optically negative.
Space:
It's amazing what you can still accommodate in such a small package. We had decided on the following components:
Gigabyte GA-F2A88XM-DS2
Club 3D R9 270 Royal Queen 14 Series Graphics Card
AMD A8-5600K Quad-core processor)
AMD Radeon memory 8GB (2400MHz)
Apart from the graphics card (see below) fitted directly into all housing and even the hard-drive carrier could be easily installed.
Disadvantages:
Unfortunately, there are some small drawbacks cost housing the fifth star.
1. The only major problem I had with the installation of the graphics card. The above 220mm for the graphics card is very optimistic! Built 270 is 211mm long and I had to remove the front panel, the required power plug 'a bit' fashion so that it only just so fit and even the installation was difficult. If ever the card to be replaced I have to disassemble the entire computer again.
Although I usually have no problem with the external expansion boards to screw is in this case the one centimeter I've missed and would have to install the graphics card much easier.
2. The use of a large USB connector for the motherboard. In such a case it is of course quite close to that I had expected, but that the manufacturer is because uses a standard plug is not exactly optimal. Since I had a slightly different solution expected.
3. A shame, I also think that the installation space for the 120mm fans no longer is on the edge. Especially when every millimeter counts can be the key for the installation of a fan and the bottom is just the only place for a fan.
TL / DR:
Optically very appealing housing with smaller weaknesses in mounting options. Anyway, you can deal with this case fairly simple a small 'wolf in sheep's clothing' Assemble, which is also suitable for games, or even, with the appropriate hard drives and external optical drive, a small media center that makes a very good figure next to the TV.
Purchase recommendation
Tips:
1. If you remove the front panel must not forget the third screw at the bottom of the housing.
2. Builds, with longer graphics cards, the CPU cooler and the RAM in later. You will need free space when installing the card every centimeter.
3. Ordered still a silent 120mm fans (such as from this series from Corsair) for the ground with. A stream of air in the housing is always good. ;)
