Fractal Design Ridge Black - PCIe 4.0 riser card included - 2x 140mm PWM Aspect fans included - Type C USB - m-ITX PC Gaming Case

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.

The idea for the build in this case was for a HTPC / living room games device. 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.

Great build quality overall, A true pain to cable manage in if you choose to fully load it with SSD's in the back panel. But that's what you sign up for when building in such a case. If you can get your hands on shorter run cables for your SFX power supply i would highly recommend it The looks overall are great, the size can be compared to that of a PS5. Do note that you will need to manually adjust fan speeds in your BIOS or the noise level will be unbareable. I set them as low as possible so that i still had good airflow but couldn't hear the fans turning into a Turbojet.

First of all, gpu temps are amazing in this case with the two stock fans facing the GPU. However, the stock fans are incredibly loud. Worth setting to silent mode in bios. They'll still pump more than enough air into the system. CPU temps however are a little harder to maintain. If you're going Intel I'd recommend the 65TDP CPUs. In my instance I used an i5 13400f. I'd recommend using the CPU cooler as an exhaust. Invest in some 60mm noctuas that you can fit by the front mesh panel, or I've even seen someone manage to fit a 60mm noctua at the bottom of the case, technically towards the top of the motherboard, as it's placed upside down. Use the 60mm as intake, CPU fan as exhaust. However I'd only suggest going through all of that if you're using a 125tdp CPU. The power connecter that goes from your psu to the back of the case, uses an extremely thick cable, with an extremely thick connector to the rear of the case. Which sounds great for build quality, but it made getting my cooler in a nightmare. I managed in the end, but others might not be so lucky with their cooler. I had to remove the connecter and squeeze it back in and screw it into place after installing the heatsink. Finally, if you're building for someone else, as I was, for my father, I wouldn't recommend this case. It will require regular cleaning as all the vents are just open holes with no mesh. I ended up getting magnetic mesh and attached them to the inside of the side panels, meaning my father can now just remove the side panels and clean them off, and that should keep the inside of the case from needing a clean for a long time. Once it's all built in, looks great. But yeah, the only nightmare building experience is with the power connector. The maintenance with cleaning will be a nightmare, and the stock fans, which are nice to be included, are extremely loud and will require a fan curve edit.

One of the best cases I have ordered. Good cooling and ok value foe money. Will fit is any home or office and easy to build in. Fan that's come with case are amazing nice and quite and it's the perfect size

Cool case temps are better than expected,nice fit and finishing it feels good quality. Shame it doesn't come with a gen5 pcie riser

*update if you are concerned with cooling performance, you can fit a Kraken 120mm AIO with a 120mm slim fan like the noctua one. I use it as an aircooler is not enough for my cpu of choice. I am looking to see if a 240mm Kraken cooler might fit but it is a tight squeeze. My setup is: i5- 14600kf MSI 4060ti 16GB Gaming Dual Fan 32GB 5600mhz Corsair ram Kraken 120mm AIO (with noctua slim fan swap to run in the system). 750w CoolerMaster SFX PSU Overall the case is fantastic if you are looking to downsize to an ITX system. However from all the reviews I have seen online, no one talks about the amount of black particles from the black paint of the chassis that comes off with tightening the MOBO screws or any other screws bottom or top panels. The case has a sleek design that feels more Xbox One Series S styled which is nice. It can be a slight pain installing the mobo but apart from that it is good!

Used this case for my first pc. For a case this sleek it was simple to build in and offers a lot of space for fans, gpu's etc etc. I haven't had any temp issues using the default fans and they're hardly loud. The sides are easy to remove so you have great access to your parts. Great quality of build as well for the price. Definitely worth buying if you like the look and like sff pc's.

fairly easy to build in. make sure your motherboard has all the necessary plugs for the front panel USB-C or you might have to buy an adapter

Al jaren is Fractal Design mijn favoriet wat betreft behuizingen. Deze kast stelt niet teleur. De kwaliteit is zeer goed, de indeling is doordacht en de handleiding is erg duidelijk. De meegeleverde fans zijn stil genoeg en de temperaturen zijn voor een niet-gamersysteem goed te noemen wanneer je niet de zwaarste hardware wilt gebruiken, zelfs met een horizontale opstelling. Ik heb er een Ryzen 7 7700 in gebouwd met een Thermalright AXP90-53 CU, twee M.2 schijfjes en een voeding van Corsair. Er is genoeg ruimte voor een moderne grafische kaart. Wat er aan verbeterd kan worden: de voet is erg plastic en te laag, isolatievoeten voor audioapparatuur zijn aan te raden bij horizontale plaatsing Jammer is dat er geen stoffilters bij zitten. Maar verder is dit de ultieme ITX-kast wat mij betreft.

Clairement un super boitier et trés bien conçus, il se marie parfaitement dans un salon a la place d'une console

Buena caja. Los acabados son muy bonitos y la posibilidad de desmontarla entera mediantes tornillos e imanes es una pasada. Te montas un equipo gaming en un espacio reducido sin problemas. La usé para montar un Ryzen 7 8700g con refrigeración liquida y va espectacular

Super case, juste faire attention à prendre la bonne alimentation adapté pour les petit espaces
