Nice. I do enjoy sleek lil ITX chassis. Are these a new company, @ChugNorris?

 

[HoneyBadger]

These are actually really old, in that they've been around for 5+ years. I remember when they doing a crowdfunder and then your primary competitor sold them for years. (They were a bit cheaper too)

OOH - that is NOICE !

 

[MrRockliffe]

Damn, that GPU length of 170mm is killer - otherwise a cracking case

 

[marco.da.man]

very nice

Nice looking case but how much.... from a personal perspective I'm just not seeing why it's that much (I know OCUK doesn't set the price but still)

 

[Random Guy Esq.]

Economies of scale.

Just for one wouldnt it be nice to visit a thread in here and see such an item available for say £29.99

 

[lsg1r]

Economies of scale.

Even taking that into account it still seems overpriced, not saying it should be '£29.99', £150 maybe, but not just shy of £200.

isnt this the same price the enthoo primo was? and for 1/4 of the case. ITX anything prices are getting out of hand.

It's been around since 2015. £199 is the highest price I've seen it. However, US sites have it at $199, so presumably the price has simply gone up over the past five years (by £84, IIRC).

Cooler Master have an ITX case in the works. Looks to be about the same size as the M1 from NCase (or a little bigger). It should come in at a more reasonable price when launched (pics and info on reddit).

Lian Li are releasing the O11D Mini very soon at a good price

I'm not against paying good money on a case (although I focus more on cooling than anything these days, my office gets rather warm in summer) as it's not an area I'd be replacing often but at the same time I also look at 'is it worth the cost'....

Even if you ignore the likely cheaper price, I'd argue that the CM has an overall better layout as well, especially with it supporting 240mm rad up top.

This used to be £180 when a competitor of OCUK used to sell it.

Yeah, but in that case "Mini" is an oxymoron

It's about 4x the size of this case, 3x the size of the Ncase M1, and 2x the size of the CM NR200.
