V500 Mini Portable M-ATX/ITX Computer Case, MINI-Tower CASE, Full Side Transparent DIY Desktop Case with Handle, Support 320MM GPU Size (Black-2.0)

I took a chance on this cheap case and was honestly surprised at the lack of better reviews—this thing is really, really good value for the price and can be made to look high quality with some effort. The case metal is on the thinner side and a bit flimsy, but once everything is installed, it holds up fine. The included magnetic dust filters are pretty restrictive, so I wouldn’t bother using them if you care about airflow.Cable management in this case takes some creativity. For my build, I gloss vinyl wrapped over the PSU branding and made a custom PSU wire cover by cutting up a plastic binder, then vinyl wrapped that in black too (see the photos). The 4 infinity fans have all their cables routed behind the motherboard tray, with connections flat and double-side taped to the back panel so they stay put during transport and never get in the way of the motherboard install.If your interested some of the specs are:- Ryzen 7 3700x + Stock Cooler- EVGA RTX 2060 KO Ultra- Matx mobo- 600 watt ATX non modular thermal take smart- 4 infinity fans 2 reverse flow at the bottom and 2 regular flow at the top for exhaust + cheap rgb controller.Build Tips:-Install the PSU first, connect its cables to the motherboard outside the case, then connect the fans to the mobo, then install the fans, and finally the motherboard—this avoids any clearance issues.-You can fit a 2-slot GPU that’s extended up to a 3-slot cooler, like an MSI Gaming Z RTX 2070, but you’ll need to use low profile 120mm Arctic fans at the bottom for optimal GPU airflow.-In my build, I used an EVGA RTX 2060 KO Ultra (a slimmer 2-slot card), which I recommend for maximizing space.-You can’t mount a 240mm AIO on top unless you remove the PSU mount and double side tape it towards the middle of the front pannel (would not recommended if you transport your PC, since this could cause wobble or damage).Cheers and I hope to buy this case again!

having built a number of computers there is a MAJOR chance you will need to modify something. you get a L shape power supply cable if the power supply fan faces the front of the case it cant suck in air to cool it so you have to have it face the mother board so you have to squash the given L shape cable to get the power supply in. Next the case is so thin I bet the handle will bend the top so I didn't use it. Next you have to screw ALL fans/hard drives to the honeycomb mesh top/bottom/rear and they don't all line up square for the different sizes so they sit at small angles. The inside width is 2 ssd side by side IF ONLY THE MESH HOLES LINED UP to do it but NO...rrrrrr... RECOMEND slim fans for the bottom, regular fans work for back & top. MAJOR problem is if your vid card power cables are on the top (going down from the glass like my rx 580 red devil or 580 fatmax) vs the back of the card they hit the glass so it wont close I had to drill the hole bigger and use mother board mounting offsets to lift the glass higher and they cables still touch so hope you want a smaller card or the power is located somewhere else. ITS REAL GLASS so beware. The bars across the top of the power supply bend with ease a baby using it to stand up might bend them YA its that easy. The dust mesh screens are useless. they attach with junk magnets on 2 sides only NOT all 4 so any screws used for fans/HD better be small or they over power the magnets, if on the bottom the dust screen just falls off. For a small case it rocks there is nothing better at this size only 2 problems are mounting the power supply and size / location of power of your vid card if these 2 check out I would get it.

This case is a copy of some other cheap front-mount PSU MATX cases that have come out in the last few years. It can be found under other names like SGPC K133 or K88. At the end of the day it is a very low budget alternative to a premium case like the NCase M2. But, there are a lot of compromises on build quality when you’re spending 1/5th the amount of money.This case comes with no instructions, very limited accessories, low quality screws (especially the countersunk ones - they strip very easily), and the case itself is easily bent out of shape. Because the entire side panel is a sheet of tempered glass with holes drilled into it for mounting, the case is essentially a 5 sided metal box with no cross-supports meaning that it can flex at each corner quite easily. Adding the glass panel on does not really help either because the mounting holes are oversized. For this reason I’d strongly recommend against using the included carrying handle and leaving this case on your desk. Just for fun I tried picking up my case after finishing my build and my graphics card visibly moved almost 2 cm up and down as the case flexed. Yikes!For most people, I’d recommend spending $20 more and getting a Jonsbo D32 STD which is a bit wider but has a back panel behind the motherboard tray for hiding wires, has a frame around the glass side panel for durability, and has much higher build quality with bent/rolled sheetmetal for rigidity. This V500 case is literally just a few straight cut panels that are riveted together. Unfortunately my desk is very narrow and this case was one of the only choices. If I had 2” more width to work with, I would not have bought this case.On the flip side, this case can fit a full ATX PSU, a full width MATX motherboard, a 135mm tower cooler, large modern GPU’s, and has room for four 120mm fans (2 top, 2 bottom) without making any modifications. If you’re going to build your PC and never move it around, this might be an okay choice.
