It was for actual testing. I typically shoot B-Roll after everything is done and the script is complete. That was just a mistake during footage collection. I was just trying to demonstrate and show the slim fans used.
This case needs to be expanded from 223mm in depth, to 255mm This will allow the use of XL PSUs and more GPU compatibility from 215mm to 247mm (242mm Founders edition cards) While still fitting inside a carry on case. Making it the Goldie locks of PC cases. Also it would improve airflow and cable management, since the 140mm fan in the front needs more room to blow air upwards to the GPU. I would even put 2 140mm fans stacked, in the front Please lets make this dream come true :) PS: also make passthrough holes for the larger 180mm long PSUs
@@lamboratorioaive I don't see the need for an ATX power supply in an ITX computer. SFX (sometimes SFX-L) is used for this purpose and it is completely sufficient (around 500-600W).
@Lumperator where I live. Specialty parts are rare to come by, such as sfx PSUs. 3rd world countries are notorious for having bad electricity, so being able to go and source an old PSU (when that sfx psu goes bad without warning) is of massive importance. It's about availability and price
Just a note. You missed on the GPU. The best card that can fit in here is the 2 fan Gigabyte 4070 model. That card is under 200mm so should fit snugly in this case.
a shame they couldn't orient things to get a larger GPU in there. That's a good-looking case. Edit: and I LOVE the horizontal layout mod you did at 12:24
The front fan is installed backwards; instead of providing air to the heatsink, it’s taking air away from it, which makes the airflow somewhat inefficient. The cooling could improve if the front fan brings in air towards the heatsink and expels it through the back.
Would it be possible to use a top down cpu cooler in this case? I guess that would mean the fan would be facing the glass panel, but how much does that matter? I'd love to see the T6 provide the option to replace the glass panel with another grater-style vented panel.
Hey CJ, great video! I was just looking at this case for my next SFF build. Quick question if you don't mind? I would love to fit any of the Asus 4070 cards, but they're 227mm in length with dual fans. Could you perhaps measure on your T6 case what the absolute maximum is it'll accommodate for the graphics card? Frankly it would be an oversight on their part to not give you that extra 15mm as all dual fan 4070s are 230mm or less. Appreciate it, thanks!
Great review, this case has a lot of potential. I think I'll take it. Can you tell me how much space is available for the top ( height ) of the graphics card? It might help me to eventually deshroud the GPU.
sort of wish they made dual chamber for a vertical GPU on the back. That would add to the size footprint, and require a riser cable, but it would really open up the GPU options.
The way the gpu is configured, you might actually want to install the cpu cooler so that it exhausts to the front as well. Probably wouldn't impact cooling too much, but exhausting to the front and the back irks me in a way I can't put into words. Also, nice heating in winter. The room for an ATX psu is wasted because I can't imagine a current cpu drawing enough power that an ITX psu can't supply, especially when limited to a 215mm gpu. All in all, the handle is a great idea for SFF builds and the room for large air coolers is cool, but I think sandwich layouts are still the way to go for SFF. Very interesting, but not the target group I guess.
The limited graphics card length is a deal breaker for most people I would think. Also, that doesn't look like real wood on the front. The Fractal Terra is still ahead in SFF cases.
I’ve been wondering if it is possible to fit a 4080 super and a 7950x3d by using a custom liquid cooling solution but I still can’t figure out where and how a radiator would fit in this
I love the design the case, however I think the gpu limitations are just too much, if the mobo were rotated at least 90 degrees i think youd maybe be able to fit a 4070 in there somehow.
I honestly don't get why SFF cases include a handle AND a glass side panel. Who is gonna carry a case with a glass side panel around? Also you have the best regional accent!
Its legit. FormD and Streacom and Fractal all have good competition with this. We're also seeing sff gpu's emerge. Gigabyte has their 4060 mini. I expect a 5060 mini too.
More cases, and especially portable ones, need to go back to acrylic panels. YES, glass looks 5 percent better, but it is also 10000% more fragile. Never heard of anyone with a cracked acrylic panel.
anything can handle any power if you don't care about dust or noise, because all you need to do it make it mesh on all sides and it'll be the same as open air. but at that point you gotta ask yourself what even is the point of having a case.
This looks so weird to me. Pulling in air from the top is so counter intuitive and why buy such a premium case when you're limited to such tiny graphics cards. I'm already annoyed I was only able to find one single RTX 4080 SUPER that fits the Fractal Design Ridge after my RX 7900 XT already seemed too big (and it actually wasn't, no idea what I thought when I looked at those measurements before going out to buy a new graphics card. I guess warm air rising against the airflow isn't that much of an issue when the components can't be very strong but still... just feels weird overall. That and that gigantic handle at the top 🤔
Not everyone uses big GPUs. Using mid to low end hardware is actually quite common if you stalk any SFF PC boards. SFF is an interesting space because a lot of people want something kind of hyper specific.
If you're saying that it's a bad idea to intake from the top because hot air rises, hot air rises a lot slower and with a lot less force than fans can move air. There's been a lot of testing on this, temperatures don't change if you intake from the top or the bottom of a case.
Why is the front fan exhaust?
It was for actual testing. I typically shoot B-Roll after everything is done and the script is complete. That was just a mistake during footage collection. I was just trying to demonstrate and show the slim fans used.
this case is gonna look good beside mid century furniture as a media center 👌
Nice case with interesting design features. Strong frame and panels and atx psu to keep costs in check. Thanks for reviewing 👍

I think the opposite. They could be even smaller.
@Lumperator what for?
There are plenty smaller cases.
But little that can accommodate full size ATX PSU (180mm length) and still fit in a carry on

Yes, the most powerful graphics card for this case is the Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4070 WINDFORCE 2X OC 12G.
grate video! please review the jonsbo mk-0 next!!!

That case is beautiful! However, I think I'm going to stick with my plans to get a Terra for my personal build.
Thanks for the video, when recording noise. Click a mouse first near the computer so there's a reference. 🙂

Let's hope next gen RDNA4 8600XT, 16GB, performs like a 7700XT at
I do like the look and the big cooler support, the limits on the GPU length would kill it for me.

I had the fans configured with the front as intake and the rear as exhaust, so all the ventilation was front to rear.
@@ElevatedSystems In hindsight, I have no idea how I made that leap of logic. Probably rotated it on the wrong axis in my head.
@@overlordmarkus no you were right. It was accidentally flipped in my B-roll shot. It was the right way during testing however.
I wonder if it would be possible to reverse the top and bottom panels, in order to reverse the case.
Magnets only to secure the tempered glass panel is kinda bad if they want to market this as portable with a handle.
The limited graphics card length is a deal breaker for most people I would think.
Also, that doesn't look like real wood on the front.
The Fractal Terra is still ahead in SFF cases.
Great case, wish it could fit the smallest 4070 super, 227mm.
Theoretically can you fit a 120mm AIO radiator on the 120mm fan slot?
I'd also like to know this - Just ordered this case and was originally planning on using a Deepcool Assassin Digital AK620

Good point.
They can add 2-3cm to hight and we fit mATX mobo dut no, we have ATX PSU but hight priced itx mobo =_=
I see another video.. It fit 4060 asus (227mm long) can it fit zotac 4070 which 225? Really i need to know this.. Please help me
What setting value did you set in the BIOS to underclock the CPU?
This will give you all you need to know - ua-cam.com/video/wiPDD3QGmBs/v-deo.html
Can I fit a VGA 4070 FE?
Its legit. FormD and Streacom and Fractal all have good competition with this. We're also seeing sff gpu's emerge. Gigabyte has their 4060 mini. I expect a 5060 mini too.
First video I've seen of this channel. Great review. Didn't like the hip hop beats combined with the reviewer. Niche.

The horizontal look like a microwave lol
