Hi guys. After some upgrades and changes to my system I find myself with almost enough spare components for another PC. My question is thus - are there any compact ITX cases out there that will accommodate a 120mm AIO? I won't be adding a GPU, so I want to keep the build as small as possible, but hopefully negate some of the airflow/cooling challenges of smaller builds by using an AIO I have.

Any thoughts welcome.

DAN A4 SFX is probably the smallest that can do a 120 AIO with no gpu.

Although depending on the CPU it might be worth considering a low profile air cooler instead like the alpenfohn blackridge. With that you can go even smaller like the velka cases.

That was able to keep an 8700k cool and a delidded 9900k at stock from throttling.

Streacom FC8 might also be worth considering. It can be fanless up to 87W.

Aio are comparatively very bulky. If you don't need a GPU then consider a high quality low profile air cooler. Inwin Chopin would be a super compact build this way.

The sg13 is a cheap compact option - it does have room for a GPU but it still only 11 litres and is designed for a 120mm aio and ATX power supplies
