Jonsplus BO100

This case look cute. It could do well with a smaller GPU like a RTX 3050 or 3060.

And maybe they'll make an extended one that fits a full-length GPU?

is for taking your pet rabbit to the vets?

Could have chosen a better name. Not sure I'd want to buy some BO.

Quite like that, funky little thing!
With the front tempered glass allowing you to see the hardware at the top and maybe have a screen at the bottom, would make an interesting little media pc!

OCUK have this case for pre-order.

I'm sorry, but at £170 Jonsplus really are taking the proverbial: it's at least £100 too expensive.

PinkFloyd · 3 Jul 2021 at 23:34

Yep, agreed. Price is ridiculous really. £100 at a push imo.

What kind of screen were you thinking? Any examples? Thanks

No examples or anything, just thought about it as an idea!

Hadn’t seen this case before and I really like the looks.
Can pick up the silver here for 849rmb, so there is a good bit of markup going on there for UK.
I guess cases are a bit chunky to transport, and adding on VAT will hurt.

The wife will kill me if I get another case…

Edit: Watched a build video on YT, a small channel "foni". It is a nice looking thing. The black version also looks great.

Just bought the silver version. Caseking have it in-stock so sure overclockers will soon.

Few things to note.. need an itx mobo with USB c header, not many to choose from!

Only a few 3060/3060ti will fit and obviously all out of stock.

Other than that, love the looks...!

Would definitely like to see some pics, once you get yours and put a system in it.
I'm assuming temperatures will be pretty toasty, but it's not exactly a hardcore OC case.

Just bought a Asus rtx 3060ti dual oc mini, going to pair it with a 5800x. I hope the temps will be ok! Will deffo post pics when I get it. Caseking is in-stock so OC said it should be ~10 days.

Emlyn_Dewar · 12 Jul 2021 at 16:20

Will definitely be a powerhouse for the size.

Anyone know if you can put a liquid cooled GPU in here. Was thinking then you could fit a 3070 founders edition in.

You can certainly put a W/C GPU in there. The radiator will be the tricky bit

It only supports 120mm rads. Looking at pics of the case, the rad location is likely on the back. That, in turn, means it's going to be tricky to fit both the rad and a CPU cooler. Though using an external rad (even mounted to that same location, but outside) should work.

You have been extremely helpful on two topics consecutively, please can I just hire you to solve all my problems

I got one. I'm happy with it.
