Preface:I have been on the hunt for an SGPC K66 for several months but was unsuccessful in importing it from China (also it was very expensive). Months later, I saw this case which is almost identical, ships from Amazon, and is much cheaper than the SGPC K66! Despite this listing having no reviews at the time, I jumped on it immediately. I might've been the first person to purchase it (Purchased on Jan 14, 2024). At the time of purchase, this case was listed for $69.99 with a 20% Amazon coupon ($58.63 total after tax). Despite the price jump, I still highly recommend this case.Pros:- The second smallest ITX case (~11L) utilizing a traditional layout (behind the SGPC K66 (~8.4L).- Very minimal design with a large side glass and a nice power button (and white LED power button).- The case has a heavy weight to it despite its size. It feels very durable and is nicely made.- The instructions were simple and easy to follow.Cons (more so pre-cautions):- GPUs greater than 135mm in width may have a hard time fitting the two 6P+2P PCIe cables. My ZOTAC RTX 3070 Twin Edge is 141.3mm and barely fits with the cables. If it was more than that, the glass wouldn't be able to close.- Similar to the con above, GPUs greater than 41.5mm in thickness may have a hard time fitting the two 6P+2P PCIe cables under the GPU. I had to finesse the cables so that it doesn't hit the GPU fans while spinning. The PCIe connection bits (at the end of the cables) are thick and can hit the GPU fans.- The Power Supply cable that connects from the PSU to the rear of the PC case is a little restrictive. I have a slim (15mm) 120mm fan at the top of the case that slightly interferes with the cable. If you zoom in at the top left of the picture inside the case near the rear, you can see a slight bend of the built-in PSU cable. However, I have had no problems with it. Just a caution.- This case has large holes (~5mm) that can let in a lot of dust and even tiny flying insects. I highly recommend getting a 60-mesh filter, especially if you're going to use the rear as an intake similar to my build. The case only comes with one filter (for the bottom of the case) but not the rear.- This case can get pretty hot if you only use the bottom GPU intake. I highly recommend using the rear as an intake. Despite using the rear as an intake, my temps are still on the hotter side, but not as much as it would be with just a GPU intake.PC Specs:RYZEN 5 5600Thermalright AXP90 X36 Black Low Profile CPU Cooler (I attached a Thermalright TL-9015 92mm Fan for the white aesthetic)ASRock B550M-ITX/acAsgard Valkyrie Series 2x16GB 3200MHzSamsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB M.2-2280 NVMEKXRORS M02 SFX Mini-ITX PC CaseCooler Master V750 SFX GOLD 750W 80+ Gold Fully Modular SFX Power SupplyThermalright TL-C12015 RGB (top exhaust fan)
