A09 Black Mini-ITX 0.8mm SPCC Desktop Computer Case Fit in Flex PSU

I used the A09 for my first Mini-ITX build after a number of AMD Micro-ATX builds over the years.* AMD Ryzen 8600* Gigabyte B650I AORUS Ultra Mini-ITX* T.F.SKYWINDINTL 400W Power Supply Flex ATX Fully Modular PSU (very tight!)* G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 Series (Intel XMP 3.0) DDR5 RAM 64GB (2x32GB) 6000MT/s CL30-40-40-96 1.40V Desktop Computer Memory UDIMM* Crucial P3 Plus 1TB PCIe Gen4 3D NAND NVMe M.2 SSD* SAMSUNG MZ-V9P4T0B/AM 990 PRO PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD 4TBThe Goodisory A09 is one of the smallest ITX cases out there. It accommodates the above hardware with a few caveats:* The Ryzen 8600 with stock Cooler fits, but precludes the optional mounting of a video card w riser across the side of the case* The PSU listed is a VERY tight fit.. to be fair, it is longer than what the A09 specifies as usable. It had to be maneuvered past non-removable mounting posts.* There is no spare room. The main motherboard power is right against the front panel* The front buttons needed to be temporarily removed to permit installation of the motherboard (picture)* The fact that the Gigabyte board has sub-board to attach case power and reset is helpful (picture)While the A09 is well made. Its design sacrifices everything for small size. I think it's a nice solution for a Ryzen APU and M.2 storage with no extraneous devices in the case: no GPU card, no SATA drives, no add-on cards. Even there, assembly will take some trial and error to find the correct order of operations.What could make the A09 better? The basic case is riveted together and risers are not removable so it is quite sturdy. The side panel is the only removable panel. If the risers and other panels were removable, it would be easier to mount the PSU, and access the motherboard connections.My goal was a lunch-box sized host with ample memory and storage for data projects. The A09 can literally be carried in a child's soft lunch bag (pictured)

This case is a breeze to work in, is perfectly compact, and has one single flaw.That flaw is that the front I/O daughter board is in the way of the GPU. Your GPU *WILL* hang too far and hit that little PCB and its wires... So I suggest you only buy this if you don't intend on closing the side panel, or if you don't need even a small dedicated GPU.Needing a riser cable could have been avoided if the manufacturer had put a low-profile brace elsewhere, instead of a regular sized GPU brace where it is... But that's a nitpick. The only real concern is the placement of the Front I/O ports.For the price, it's a decent case.

Love, love love it!This thing is VERY good quality. When it first came in the mail, I forgot how much I paid for it and when I first felt it I was like "oh yeah, that's why it was so expensive." Then afterwards I realized it was only $45! I thought I paid $100 for some reason. My point is, it's amazing quality and super dense and sturdy with very little to no bend in the side panels.In my pics, I was still waiting on my flex PSU. I went with a 300w for my 5600g build. Everything works great but I would highly suggest buying a modular flex power supply. It will make a world of difference and your life much easier!100% worth it.

I bought 2 of these cases and had issues with both: One power button sticks badly while the other case's power button doesn't light up. I reached out to the seller for button replacements, but have been ignored. Obviously they don't care. If you still plan to buy this case (I wouldn't in hindsight), a modular power supply is a must. No room for the extra SATA and PCIe cables. Also plan to remove the USB3.0 ports temporarily to fit the motherboard and have a mini screw driver handy.

Nice and simple little case with great air flow. I put a ASRock N100DC-ITX board in it which has a embedded processor that is passively cooled. No fans, no sound at all coming from the machine. This computer is a fun project to run Casa OS on Debian. This is my new home for Home Assistant where I can control lighting, security cameras etc. One thing I like about the case is it is made to fit a power supply inside, but since I can run this motherboard off of a laptop power supply, I have all that room for some extra hard drives. The case is not too large, but it is easy to work inside of it, just a open box essentially, unlike a lot of ITX cases that are very tight. The construction is solid steel sheetmetal painted black. It's not too fancy which is fine for this use case and it keeps the cost down. This whole computer including the case was around $200.

My computer gets insanely hot not recommend if you have a basic setup. I would return mine but they dont accept returns

Built this machine that I could take when I go to friends' houses, to run a game we play often. Nice and compact, easy to travel with. It's a bit hard to work with inside, but that's because it is so small. Only thing is I wish it had at least some part of it not covered with holes, so that I could attach a cutout sticker to it. I was still able to attach it, but it was harder to do with the holes.
