- The prodigy of BitFenix started with the BitFenix Prodigy and the newest generation of BitFenix Prodigy M 2022 Chassis redefines chassis just like the original Prodigy.The compact and modern chassis with high quality tempered glass is suspended on Reinforce handles to showcase the components. With the support of up to top tier NVIDIA RTX 3090 series and AMD RX6900XT series GPUs or the Titanium ATX power supplies, the new Prodigy M 2022 efficiently supports large components with a smart layout design.The modular brackets allows the PSU and HDDs to be mounted on different locations clearing the way for support for up to 280mm radiator at the top and 120mm radiator in the rear. Pairing this up with the choice for either vertical or horizontal GPU mount and rich assortment of accessories, makes the new Prodigy M 2022 an ideal chassis for a variety of builds.

Thank you for bringing this case back in to production. Love that it caters to both mini ITX and Micro ATX motherboards. Can't wait to get the White aRGB version.
Thank you:) This is actually a new version with new layout for the latest hardware. Also the handles are enhanced with stronger mechanical structure and the surface treatment is with new matte coating. They're actually already available in quite some countries. May I know where you are from?
@@bitfenix I’m in the UK. Looks like Overclockers UK has them.
Thank you so much for bringing this legendary case back❤ i will forever love this company for taking my opinions on the old case to keep the option to have the gpu vertical👍
Just bought it. I travel a lot so the handles will come in handy. Excited to try my 6900XT In this case.
So?

2:10 does the acrylic panel to replace the top mesh come with the case? (Looking at ARGB version specifically)
Yes, it's included
@@bitfenix Wonderful, I've just ordered it in white via AWD-IT
@@kiri101 Thank you :)
Love the prodigy had one a long time ago, really wish i could get a hold of one of these new models
Just finishing up a mATX build with this case. Seems to me that in all situations you would be better off mounting the PSU directly to the bottom of the case instead of using the PSU bracket. Doing so gives you more room to plug in cables with a longer graphics card plugged into PCIe slot 1 and allows you to replace the small intake fan for the graphics card with a slimline 120 mm fan.
Thank you for providing the feedback to the communities:)
welome back bitfenix!
Wish the side panel IO disconnected from the side panel. It's incredibly inconvenient to have to disable IO connectors from the motherboard to fully remove the side panel.
Prodigy, 10 years ago, was a breakthrough. M 2022 is not convincing me as I prefer by far Sliger Cerberus case family
Hi MarcParis,
If you like the original Prodigy and I think Prodigy M 2022 won't let you down😁😁😁
In years, we've been requested by the communities for the new generation of Prodigy M...therefore, we re-designed the internal layout to match the latest hardware like 30 series of GPU, 280mm AIO, USB Type C and etc
@@bitfenix This effort is clearly welcomed. Market is very though with nr200 mainly but it has its limits too.
Hello. I have an MATX board where I need to install the GPU in the 1st PCIe slot. What length PSU will fit? Your documentation covers every scenario from 2nd slot to 4th but no mention of 1st at all?
Also, what height are the feet and handles?
Hello KAL,
We will suggest you to use 150mm length of ATX PSU if you would like to install in the 1st slot.
And the height of the handle should be about 48mm from the bottom to the metal body.
Hope this will help🙂
@@bitfenix Thank you. My PSU is 17cm in height. I was hoping everything would fit by removing the PSU bracket. Sadly, looks like I'll have to look elsewhere.
@@KAL-589 How about consider to install the graphics card vertically😃? May I know the model of your graphics card
@@bitfenix I need my Assassin 3 CPU cooler to fit so vertical GPU mount is not an option sadly.
@@KAL-589 Maybe it is the time to have a new AIO cooling and Prodigy M 2022😜
This case looks almost perfect for me, but I travel a lot with my PC for work so glass panels are kind of out of the question, is there any plans for a solid metal panel option? (or maybe the original version's panels are compatible...?)
the glass panel is actually without screw holes and it's tempered glass therefore, it's stronger than traditional glass panel..when you're traveling, we would suggest you pack the glass panel separately with protection materials then basically you don't have to worry the glass panel will be damaged...just for your reference :)
I did a build with the Phenom back in the day, is there plans to reintroduce the Phenom?
drinking game: a shot everytime he says “literally”
hut fr, very nice case, exactly what I’m looking for. will wait a bit until more retailers in my area will have it
That vertical GPU adapter could also have a hole for an SFX PSU behind the GPU. This would allow the front of the case to be used for a 200mm radiator .
I love to see this case again :D
i hope they remade this case for 2023, i would love to see a version with a more standard fit cuz the airflow its kinda strange on this one (since the hot air tends to go up, and the gpu taking that hot air its weird...)
Can the front panel be inverted, swiching this case back into a right-handed case, rather than a lefty?
OMG!!! hope they also considered Phenom M 2022 got both case wayback 2012 and really love it
I like the compactness of this case, looking forward to build with this case for personal use, is there a mesh panel for vertical gpu build?
Are the handles made of metal? Or are they still plastic and just have the new ribs?
they're plastic with enhanced strength and mechanical structure
The most interesting part to me is that one can place the graphics card horizontally to a mesh, and point that mesh somewhere else than the floor.
Mostly the graphics card points towards a glass wall (a dumb trend in that regard, more options would be appreciated where applicable), a plate bottom, or a mesh that's a few cm above ground. I hate those options, it's especially bad for smaller builds. I don't like the idea of the coolers creating increased suction from a constricted space or working like a vacuum cleaner.
When might we see this case in Canada? While I could ship to a US address from your store and import it, it would be great to be able to buy without having to go through that trouble.
I see it is for sale on Amazon US and adding the option of shipping to Canada would be appreciated.
Hi Sean, thank you for your interest in Prodigy M 2022. We're currently in discussion with Canada Computer to bring in these new models. However, due to the logistic congestions caused by pandemic, it may take more than 3 months. If you don't prefer to wait that long, we would suggest you go from USA first. Thank you for your understanding and sorry for the hassle
Is there a way to get rid of gpu sag? Now that the motherboard is flipped it looks like a unique problem.
Whatever happens to the 230mm fan?
Are you going to upload 3D files to print a lower psu bracket in case we want to use the case upside down as if it were a normal distribution? so the psu cable is not left out, I have a 14cm psu atx and if necessary I am willing to put the graphic one slot lower with a riser cable.
This with the purpose that that part looks more aesthetically beautiful for if those of us who prioritize the airflow, we turn the case upside down.
@@telacreiste984 the PSU bracket can be removed. Please check here www.bitfenix.com/products/chassis/micro-atx/prodigy-m-2022/ at the bottom of the page you can click on compatibility guide for further details
The dream has come true!
But, will we get more colours?
We need the classic Colossus big tower as a mid tower or matx with the same LED design but with ARGB and a side window, that would be soo sick
we launched Colossus Mini & Colossus mATX back in 2013 unfortunately they're not in production anymore
BitFenix yess but i mean the big colossus with the stripes at the side, just smaller and with the stripes as rgb, would be so unbelievably sick😁 the mini colossus only had one stripe
@@switterbeet ha...see...we will pass your ideas to the product development team..thank you! :)
BitFenix would be nice😁 thank you!
looking good man 👏
Agora tô em 2024 querendo um desses e não acho de jeito algum
where is my red version ?
Is a riser cable included with the case, or is it sold separately?
The riser cable is not included and we don't sell riser cable either. There are quite some offers of riser cables in the market
Awe yeah. These are awesome. The instructions/presentation was great, thanks.
Any chance the regular Prodigy also getting a 2022 version.
Yes, the regular version is also available, the regular version will be with 1 x 120mm (all black or all white) fan and 1 x 60mm (all black and all white fan) blowing direct to GPU included in the case. For detailed spec of regular version, please check here www.bitfenix.com/products/chassis/micro-atx/prodigy-m-2022/
@@bitfenix I'm not sure what "man rom" meant by "the regular Prodigy" but to me the regular Prodigy means the non-M version; i.e. the original mITX case (the Prodigy M came out later). The thing I loved about the original Prodigy and the Colossus was that by reversing the upper hard drive cage so that the drive connectors would faced the motherboard side, I could fit 6 hard drives AND a full size video card. Will you be coming out with that configuration?
@@daveminion9453 true, the very original Prodigy is the ITX version:) You know the history very well;) As Prodigy M can fit both ITX and mATX mobos, therefore we go for 2022 version only for Prodigy M :)
@@bitfenix That's disappointing news but thanks for the reply.
What is the maximum PSU length compatible with a 120mm front fan?
www.bitfenix.com/products/chassis/micro-atx/prodigy-m-2022/ please check here. At the bottom you can click on compatibility guide for further details
can it be used "upsidedown" so the writings and brands of the components are oriented properly???
function wise you can but it probably wont look that good
Curious why you swapped the panels around? The side io was on the right side of the case on previous cases
In order to allow the tempered glass panel on the right to better show the beautiful components😍
We will suggest to put Prodigy M 2022 on the left hand side on the table and make a little distance allow to plug in the USB drive and press the power button.
@@bitfenix I mean on my bitfenix prodigy the motherboard is mounted on the right panel, so in that case you’d want the glass panel on the left side. Seems you’ve swapped around which side the mobo mounts on.
@@TechGamesAU the mobo mount on the left in Prodigy M 2022😊
@@bitfenix can the case be turned upside down so you can put it on the right hand side of the table?
@@jan_philip6641 function wise and in term of mechanical strength, it's ok...and as long as you're ok with it that it probably won't look that good to have it up side down
the case sucks, the glass should be on the other side. Where can you get the top glass?
When will it be available for sale on Amazon and Newegg? and what will its price be?
they're already available on Amazon and Newegg. Please check on Amazon and Newegg and choose the seller: BitFenix
Wish there was lefty and righty my pc sits on my right so I want everything seen from the left
Is it possible for a fan Size other than the tiny 60mm to be placed in the front?
At the front you can install 1 x 120mm or 2 x 60mm
@@bitfenix thank you for answering my question, i just have one more
Do any accessories come with the case, like the extra cables or riser cable shown in this video?
@@darryljack6612 sorry for the late reply...we missed this message...the riser cable is not included
What is the horizontal length of the case?
W 250mm(9.8inch)x H 404mm(15.9inch) x D 359mm(14.1inch) for details, you can see here www.bitfenix.com/products/chassis-2/micro-atx/prodigy-m-2022-argb/prodigy-m-2022-argb-specs/
can it be used without those Tim Apple rubber domes?
you mean rubber domes for keyboard?
@@bitfenix no, i mean those flexible feet arches made of rubber. The handle/feet on the outside
@@bobbyboygaming2157 yes, you can remove them if you prefer. However, as when the bottom handle is removed, the case body will sit direct on the floor or desk and there will be no room for air flow at the bottom, therefore, if you're doing so, we would suggest you use something at the bottom of the case body and not to have the case body sit direct on the desk or floor or you can just remove the upper handle and keep the bottom handle
can we use 3,5 hdd in this case?
yes, you can install 2 x 3.5" HDD
i hope the handle not as sharp as the old one.
There is enhanced mechanical structure on this new version
can you use it upside down?
yes, if you don't mind the logo will be upside down
So basically you have to choose between accessing your front IO or looking at your components. I'll wait for the 2027 model with reversible interior.
basically most of the Prodigy M users put the PC on the desks, we would suggest you leave some room at the left side against the wall then you will have easy access to your front I/O. Actually when the communities asked for window version of Prodigy M, we got requests to move the front I/O to left side as they would like to keep the window side clean ...guess its a subject of different opinions on aesthetics:)
@@bitfenix Are the handles strong enough to act as feet so that the case can be flipped? That would be great so users have the option to place it at the right hand side of the table and still have TG panel facing them.
@@ailluinthethyra6139 Yes, the handles are with enhanced mechanical structure. The surface treatment is also changed to new coating that it won't get sticky after years under humidity like SofTouch used to be
What's the ETA for this?
what country are you based in? If USA, it will be available on Amazon, Newegg and BitFenix shop next week or the week after. Here is the link for BitFenix Shop bitfenixshop.us/
Since 20 years nobody uses 60mm fans anymore! since 5 years nobody uses plexy-glass. (and for good reasons) Why was the large fan-mount in the bottom removed?(from 200mm to 2 x 120mm?) This new versions layout and air-cooling is worse than the old. The new glass-window is a nice after-thought at best. Noteworthy improvements are made only for cable-management and longer power-suplies. Having a full-size(tripple-fan) GPU dangle on a riser cable and two tiny screws at the rear slots is not an improvement unless a riser and support-bracket would be included. The material of the handles becomes sticky after 5 years in use and than attracts hair and dust.(looks terrible) Stop that silly RGB and fix the case! Dont ever buy the white version volks because it looks shit after only 3 years. (the white handles turn to yellow do to sunlight)
