Question Mini atx build

[LastSamurai]

Hi all

I’m looking for a mini atx case that fits a 280mm radiator aswell as 3 120mm fans?The only case that I know of is the phanteks Enthoo Series. If so is it any good? I currently have a atx tower which is really bulky on my desk and I want a nice small compact case.

Any help would be great

Do you actually need that many fans?

280mm radiator is longer than most Mini-ITX cases. Usually limited to 140mm radiators, the occasional 240mm.

How much are you willing to spend?

Practically a mid-tower: only other one I could find that would even do a 280mm

There are some ultra low volume cases out there, but they wouldn't do 280mm radiators, just 120mm and 240mm. They are also $300+

@Eximo i currently have a midtower with the 280mm and the 5 fans so that’s all going to go into the mini itx. Wow thank you this is an awesome case.i don’t want to spend a fortune $90 max

I have the regular neo mini, and it is fairly compact.

This supports 280mm as well.

Those both look like excellent cases. What motherboard do you have?

Gigabyte X570 I AORUS PRO WIFI

Wow that’s some motherboard you have. It’s more expensive then my 3600x lol

I did a microcenter deal, so I got $50 off of it.
