Kolink Rocket V2 Aluminium Mini-ITX PC Case

i bought this case not knowing fully how small it was as it was on offer lol. but now i have an old pc which i cant fit in it and RX580 gpu and it was my old pc which i was trying to put in a smaller case and just use it as an office pc but it wont fit this case and im not sure what to do with it or try find another smaller case or if theres a smaller motherboard which will house cpu and memory and gpu and psu?

please any help would be great

old PC
i5 4690k , Motherboard Z97P-D3
16gb DDr3 , EVGA 600 W1, 80+ WHITE 600W, Power Supply
PowerColor Radeon RX 580 Red Dragon V2 8192MB GDDR5
 
The easiest solution sounds like just send it back, because it is not suitable for you. There are compact(ish) ATX & MATX cases you could get instead, e.g. Lian Li 207.

You could sort the motherboard easily enough, but looks like it only supports SFX/SFX-L PSUs and I can't see what you can do about the GPU length restriction.
 
if you was to do this its going to be expensive for no gains.

you need an itx motherboard
better than stock cpu cooler with a max of 45mm as it pull air off the back of the GPU
you need an itx PSU
and a new GPU
without the GPU your looking at £200.


ive seen people doing full size atx build in this case
