- The best mATX cases combine airflow with great design and clear cable management but its been a long time sine I've been excited about one. But the ASUS PRIME AP201 changes that in a great way. The AP201 price and everything it offers from GPU compatibility to airflow makes it one of the best small form factor cases I've ever seen.

#hardwarecanucks #bestmatxcase - Věda a technologie
mATX.. the forgotten middle child.
speak for yourself, all my friends built matx…
ITX outshined it due to the fact that if you are building mATX, it's because you're looking to build something minimal and for a while, ITX didn't offer full feature sets. However, now those boards do and have for quite a while.
In the western market perhaps. In Asia, it never left.
I agree, I searched for so long but still didn't find a good matx case. There are very few choices when it comes to parts compatible with itx cases and they are all much more expensive.
@@BenyaminLorit mainly because it's cheaper than ATX.
I love M-ATX. Never understood why it gets neglected so much. This case looks pretty decent.
I can tell you the reason. The size difference between ATX and mATX mainboards is very small. So this could have been an ATX compatible case if it was just a few cm higher.
@@achannelhasnoname5182 The size difference between ATX and mATX is the same as mATX and ITX thought, so you can make the same argument
@@achannelhasnoname5182 I'm well aware. I have built many ATX, mATX, and ITX systems. I still believe there's no one size fits all. Different people like different builds. For some, they want smaller than ATX even if it's only slightly but need more IO than what's on an ITX board. Or for others they don't need everything that's on an ATX board so if they can get an mATX board for $20-30 cheaper, they are super happy. More options is better. Last thing we want it to be forced into only having one size.
@@achannelhasnoname5182 My o11 air mini absolutely supports ATX, but I need to go mATX (which I prefer anyway) to have a top mounted AIO along with bottom fans for the GPU. overall the case looks much more filled this way
Its amazing, I did 2 builds for cusins in it each with artic 360 AIO and atx PSU.
Its also possible to fit a third 120mm fan in the bottom intake, but it definently needs a fan gril for it to be sensible.
I thought it was just me but from the comments it seems that a lot of people still have love for mATX cases. For me it's the best size and it really should be the default for everyone. It has the only full bandwidth people really use for their GPU, enough space for ventilation, so no concerns like ITX cases, enough length for most GPUs, smaller footprint, enough to put the case on top of the table and of course the cheapest motherboards.
I agree. I went ITX when I built my last pc, but mATX every time prior. My old enclosure was a Fractal Mini R2. So it had soooo much flexibility. I use it as a NAS now, so since there's no GPU, I can have 6 3.5" drives, 2 2.5" drives and 1 m.2 ssd. That's an insane amount of storage. Even with a full sized GPU, you can can still have 3 3.5" drives and 2 2.5" drives.
SLI/Crossfire isn't really a thing anymore, a lot of motherboards have multiple m.2 slots and built in wifi. I don't get the appeal of ATX nowadays unless you're trying to go super over the top.
I refused to jump onto the Mini ITX craze and decided mATX was the better compromise of small footprint but still enough expansion available.
right? I only started to question my mATX when I saw that the 4 slot GPUs nowadays would actually have it kinda tight now in my NR400
Honestly I never understood why regular ATX formfactor is the most popular one. Parts are more expensive, for 95% of people the extra connectivity will never be used, and the only benefit from a case-perspective is that they're perhaps a bit easier to build in and you can support 360mm aio rads etc without much difficulty no matter what price range you buy from. But why is this the standard? I do not know.
@@Real_MisterSir In the older days it made sense as less things were integrated on the motherboard due to still rather large processes in manufacturing chips. Many PCs had separate add-in boards for specific tasks which was slowly being done away with as more things became integrated into the chipset or the CPU itself. Kinda the same reason it is still the platform of chioce for quite a few enthusiasts today as they can load it down wit more add-ins like more NVMe drives, SATA drives, GPU, Capture cards, sound cards etc. An ATX sized tower also has plenty of space for multiple radiators or tricked out custom loops or just more space to cable manage. mATX is a good compromise for those who don't need as much add-ons and would take a smaller footprint that still offers some expandability as opposed to Mini ITX systems.
I got this case a couple of months ago. I spent so much time choosing the most practical case and I am pretty happy with my choice!
Things that I love:
- No tools needed to remove the outer plates.
- No stupid RGB lighting
- No unpractical glass doors that add weight but are just to show off your RGB lighting
- Mesh plates that help to ventilate the case
- It's long enough to fit a full-sized GPU (Zotac RTX 3080 in my case)
- USB-C port on the fron panel
- Quite lightweight
- The price is pretty reasonable (Cost me about $80 USD)
Things that I didn't like (because of the mesh walls):
- The walls get dusty quite fast
- The noise level is probably higher than with more enclosed cases.
I gonna buy this case,can I ask you do you see any problems of this case ?
@@conprika540 It's an amazing case but the front I/O USB cable is pretty thick. I had to get a right-angle adapter for the USB header on my Aorus B550 Pro-P motherboard otherwise the cable kept interfering with the fans on the GPU. Dust could also be be a problem long term depending on your environment; it might need get the dust blown out regularly.
That said, it's gorgeous, it fits my Sapphire Nitro 6700XT no problem, and everything stays really cool. Great case.
holy crap i have the exact same gpu and am planning to do a m-atx build for the first time! the aesthetics that come with this case are so pleasing and the fact that you could just carry the pc through your house is cool. its also not obnoxiously big and, as you said, not an rgb explosion.
@@conprika540 Sorry for the late reply. The only small downside for me was that cable management is something you'll have to spend your time on in this case.
Also, not exactly a con but I added 2x140mm and 2x120mm fans but they lowered the temperature only by a couple degrees Celsius, probably because the mesh walls are doing a good job at ventilating the case already.
One more reason: there is a glass-side variant of this case too. Still have all of other sides being mesh so still ventilate enough :D
Hope to see more mATX cases in future 👍
I feel that they are the ideal form factor for the 'intermediate-tier' users, as they are essentially like ATX but without the additional PCI-e expansion slots.
They aren't so monstrous and imposing as ATX.
I'm so happy that more mATX cases are coming out. I love the smaller size of mATX, but ITX tends to costs as much if not more, and you lose a lot more IO, and I use up all my USB ports. Was needing to get a smaller case for a family member's computer, and wasn't wanting to have to buy them all new parts for an ITX build, so will definitely check this out.
I saw this case last year and knew I had to have it, so I bought it. It's absolutely gorgeous. It looks very unique with some RGB in it as the square mesh creates a pixelated effect. I love how my GPU seems to almost fill up the bottom of the case, while not being suffocated at all.
I saw someone on reddit who managed to get an extra 120mm fan on the bottom and even one in the front using the rubber anti-vibration mounts. They kind of fit through the mesh of the bottom panel and inner front panel. I did the same so I have 8 fans (4 in, 4 out). I do have a small form factor PSU which helps with the front fan, and you will lose your option to place an SSD there. Also I turned the PSU so it takes in air from the front instead of from the inside of the case. My el-cheapo Artic p12 fans are quiet in this case, but you do hear air flow, but also I don't hear it because I game with my headset on.
I've been literally looking at this case for months and waiting for a big fish to review it. I decided to buy it yesterday and picked it up today in store and then I see this! Thank you for diving into it. I feel you about the psu mounting options and I think I might just take that weird cover off, but for my first matx case, I'm super stoked. Compared to my lian li mini - it's shorter, narrower but longer and I'm excited to move my stuff into its new home... eventually.
Using four $0.02 nylon washers as standoffs usually solves fan noise - I started doing this on all my builds as it also helps to isolate NVH.
ok
What is NVH?
Noise vibration harshness
It can help but a lot of the issue come from having the fan blades too close to the mesh. A spacer would be the best bet to quieten them down.
Thank you for the great review, this seems a nice case. The water cooling right on top of the PSU gives me anxiety though.
I did my build in the AP201 last month; it is amazing. Easy to build in, full size Sapphire Nitro 6700XT & full ATX modular PSU, everything fits great. And with the fans I put in, everything is very, very cool. *Great* case.👍
Will always build with Matx whenever possible. Love my current setup and will continue this as long as I can. Might check this case out
I just finished my daughter's build in this case and loved it. Plenty of room. 360 aio is a snap to put in. I am running the max 6 fans and there is some vibration on the lower fans, but the rubber washers eliminate the vibration. Great review. I agree with everything you pointed out. Thanks.
I really like this case layout. As compact as possible without having to compromise on price or performance.
A decent selection of this type of cases on the market currently, compared to when I bought my Jonsbo UMX3, which was pretty much the only one with this layout, I could find at that time.
The real challenge with these cases though is to find cpu cooler that can be rotated by 90° on AM4/AM5. So you could follow that vertical airflow properly.
Love mATX, got Kolink Citadel Mesh RGB for both myself and my cousin. Compact, cheap ($55), front and top mesh, tempered glass door that can swing open for a quick clean, and include 3 RGB fans, clean and easy cable management as well.
Finally this case is getting some good coverage. By far my favorite case I’ve used. Glad to see hc review this. Retail is $75 usd but I never see if for that price. I have the black and white versions and couldn’t find a issue other than limited cable management behind mobo tray. I’m t fits my xfx 7900xtx without issue as well. Great work!
did u add any extra fans and how are the temps and dust
@@sql64 removed stock prime fan and put 3x120mm and 2x140nm fans in. Temps have been great. Use a nzxt t120 on a 5800x3d and temps hit 72c gaming and 80c all core. Must be from the airflow from all sides of the case. I can’t recommend this case enough, dust doesn’t seem to be an issue but I use a blower on it every few weeks because I have one for building pcs. You won’t be disappointed with the case but I wouldn’t pay more than $100 for it imo
OMG I have been looking at this case every day for an mATX build! Thank you SOOO much for uploading this!
Bought it last year, it replaced my previous Define Mini C TG and the GPU temps are so much better. Build quality is top notch. Even fits a 280mm Liquid Freezer II leaving the psu in the highest position with plenty of space in the bottom for cabling and ssd's. To reduce noise from the bottom intake fans I used noctua spacers to distance my a12x25 a bit from the mesh.
Man, I've never knows this is a thing. Was it a noticeable difference? My Silent Wings Pro 4 suddenly sound much worse at 80% than 70%, so I wonder if these could help.
Very good to see this case coming out. Here in Brazil the mATX motherboards are always the best choice value wise and is what I recommend to my friends when they're building new PCs. Having that new case option to recommend will be really nice.
Yeah, we used to have the hx100 pichau. How is pretty much this case with some extra options. I hope this case or the Sky One Mini show up here in Brazil with a resonable price.
I am the only adopter of the ITX in my group of friends in Brazil and, damn, it's not only expensive but also really hard to find good components that fit into small computers. For example, paying 450 reais for the Cougar QBX is nuts compared that you could pay 260 in a Montech Air 100 that has way better construction. So, even though I use ITX myself, MATX is the best choice in Brazilian market by far.
@@Polesca Yeah I'm the only adopter of mini-ITX between my friends as well. It's not only really expensive but for several months now there's literally no new mini-ITX motherboards to buy.
yeah but cases very hardly are exported/imported....so we're stuck with very limited choices
@@VictorRomano, I've really wanted to upgrade to LGA1700, but a H610I wouldn't cut it. I hate my X470 GTN from BIOSTAR, easily the worst mobo I've touched, but it's all I have.
Finally, more nice case designs for M-Atx!
I transitioned to M-Itx mostly because there were absolutely zero good looking cases that were practical.
I ended up with the nr200 which I found was the least limiting M-Itx case but I definitely would have considered this and the fractal pop!
I currently run a build in an NZXT H1 V2. It gets warm, but that's inherent to Ryzen 7000 processors. It's one of the best systems I've built yet.
@@ResidentWeevil2077 what gpu are you running?
@@arewealone9969 I actually switched CPUs since my previous comment to an i5-13400F paired with an Arc A770 LE 16GB card. The 7700X I still have was swapped into a black NZXT H1 V2 case and paired with an MSI RX 6750 XT Mech 2X 12GB card. Both rigs use 32GB DDR5 dual channel modules, though the Intel rig can only run at 4800MT/s; the AMD rig runs at 6000MT/s.
Got this last month as my first build. Been smiling everyday ever since!
Another, similarly, prices case to look at in the mATX range is the Sama IM01 and IM02. They are basically larger NR200 cases in styling but they bring what is great about the NR200 to a MATX with no need for modding.
Got this case this year for my build. Absolutely LOVE IT! Have the white version with TG. Bottom 2 intakes,rear and 3 tops out. 13600K and RTX STRIX 3060Ti. Temps while gaming CPU 75-78C (Jonsbo HX6210) and GPU 55-62C. Love mATX format!
I bought the prime case about 6 weeks ago. Very pleased with it. Great cooling with negative pressure setup, and very quite.
I have placed the order for mine. is 3 fans setup as negative pressure enough for an air cooled build. cpu is i5 13500 and gpu is 3060ti.
I'm wondering about the dust situation. Is it bad with all that mesh side panel or it's acceptable? Really want to hear ur opinion cause i'm in love with this case.
@@luu_hainam i am planning on clear taping the rear panel fully, and some spots to reduce this.
@@luu_hainam Just like those mesh itx cases (I have the Meshlicious) I just wipe the panels once a month is actually enough, don't have to fiddle around any mesh filters
I havent really had it long enough to comment on the dust situation. The side pannels come off super easy so it should be quick and easy to dust the system as needed. I do put a cover over it when its not in use as well.
Thanks for the noise demo of the bottom fan option! I think many reviewers neglect to mention the noise aspect of the cases, which is very important for many people who need to keep those levels down to absolute minimum.
I love matx! I went with the Fractal Define C. I build a pc for a clients podcast and decided to go matx.
So many features!
Boards with wifi are surprisingly hard to come by but they are priced way better than atx. I went with a 12700k for fast video editing (thanks to QuickSync) 1660 super for nvenc and an Elgato cam link pro to push all the dslrs into OBS
Update: this case has a TG version. I own one and it’s awesome! The rear panel is still mesh so you can swap the TG and mesh to get both looks, so I think that’s the way to go. Thank you hardware Canucks for covering this case.
Literally just got done doing a Ryzen 7000/nVidia 4090 build in this case. It's fantastic for having a smaller footprint build without having a smashed shoebox feeling like some ITX builds. I'm very happy with it.
I love Micro ATX! For me its the fact that I can have a smaller overall rig without compromising on obvious features like you sometimes do with ITX (like having four ram slots) the better airflow thru most mATX cases vs ITX SFF cases helps too
I have this case. It’s nice in terms of what you can put there. Building inside it is easy and fun. The only dust filter you get is in the bottom, so if you have a cat (like I do) be prepared to vacuum clean it at least once a week. However, case is great
Nicely done as always. This is most likely my next case
Had to buy this for a new build for my friend and this video really sold it for me! Thank you! The fit and finish is incredible in person!
I actually really like the design and the glow of the Lit components through the mesh in the dark, its definitely a nice understated touch.
Been using this case for 5 months now and this is the best case I ever had in a matx category
I've been looking at this case for the longest time and I'm glad it's finally getting attention.
Re-cased my build into this since I wasn't really using the extra stuff ATX gets me. I was trying to specifically avoid any glass at all. I love how RGB stuff looks peeking through the mesh.
Great review. Would love to see more content involving other m-atx enclosures!
Love the case. I would use a hole saw to cut the floor out from under the fans on the bottom. It leaves enough surround to still attach the screws. Plus that bottom filter still works for dust as you are going intake down there. Also you eliminate that whine and improve airflow. Easy mod!
i have pretty much always been a matx person, don't want a giant tower. Just moved my main rig into a fractal define 7 mini and i absolutely love it. The best front IO available on a matx case as well as nice sound reduction keeps the system whisper quiet and my pretty basic hardware is still nice and chill inside.
im using the ap201. i absolutely love it🥳🥳 good temps, best psu mount ever, nice craftmanship, no glass,...
Nice case, we need more of these. Like the IM-1 pocket (IM-01 SAMA, Tecware Fusion) thi sis a nice case as well for small powerful systems.
I bought the ap201 last december! Love it!
I‘m owning this case and I do have a really clean and powerful and quiet!!! build! This case is like the one with the perfect airflow optaining case. I have 2 120mm arctic 15mm height fans at the bottom and 2 arctic 140mm 25mm fans at the top plus 1 120mm arctic fan at the rear. I love it
I really hope we get more mATX cases in the future that get as much attention as the other two form factors.
cool case, great review
Very nice looking case.
Happily running mATX in my O11D-Mini with dual 360mm rads. Love the smaller boards and having more space for custom cooling!
wow... this is only 1 of 2 tech channels i still follow... (thumbs up)
Just bought this case, looks great, can't wait for rest of my parts 😁
I have one on my bench right now and I've successfully been able to invert the layout by drilling out the 15 rivets holding the rear panel and mobo tray. I had to trim a little bit of material off the rear panel to allow the rivets to align with the top of the case, as well as trimming the motherboard tray lip to accommodate the side panel press-mounts, but it actually works and I'm working on installing dual 360 rads in a custom loop. I was able to re-rivet the case back together and it's hard to tell that it didn't come that way. It's ridiculous how much fits in this case and I love it. Note: Jonsbo sells a variant (D31 Mesh) with a built-in monitor too!
sick, would you post a quick video showing the build?
@@zephyr.r I'm in the process but YES, I'm documenting it for my channel and I'll note when it's up.
@@zephyr.r I put a quick community post on my channel with pics of the dry fit process and some notes on making it work.
I like mATX. It sacrifices some features, but still has plenty. Personally I'd love something weird that sits between matx and itx. Like all 4 ram slots, use a riser for the GPU and put it behind the mobo, and still fit a few low profile 1x or 4x cards.
I found this case on youtube weeks ago and end up I build my new pc in it, LOVE it so much
loved the video. I had to say something about the yellow jeep rubicon on your desk considering I happen to drive a solar yellow jeep rubicon haha.
just picked up up and its awesome. perfect size, small footprint without being too difficult to build in
Oh wow! Simple, and somewhat aesthetic. If the temps are cool, I'd probably down for this.
Just ordered one of these for my workstation. It appears Asus did a great job with making an mATX case that has no glass and excellent airflow. Really looking forward to building in it!
Just to say Thanks to give credit on photos, Thansk a lot and great case video as usual
Please review the Jonsbo D31. It addresses some of the issues you have with this case!
Was wondering when you guys were going to bring this brilliant matx case for review. It's just dope.
I'm waiting for the release of Dan cases a3 matx and choose between the two depending on price.
I was an ITX guy for a good long while. M.2 becoming radially available and modern SFF or SFFish mATX cases got me into mATX for my new build.
I love mATX. It was my go to until everything seemed to go ITX or ATX with the odd eATX. I am glad it is back. I even have a decent mATX MoBo in mind. My next build, but my current one still has a lot of useful life left. Thanks for the vid!
I bought a Corsair Air 240 5 years ago for £40 from OcUK Members Market. Loved it so much, I found and bought a 2nd one for my step-daughter a year later (now handed down to my son). Both are still being used , don't really see any point in changing as it's still great mATX case
Very nice case!
About freakin time! I have always loved m-ATX, and that is especially true now that most ATX boards barely have 3 expansion slots on them. I just don't get how most people don't find 4-5 slots to be perfect. It gives you 2 slots for a sensible GPU, a slot for a sound card, one for a RAID or capture card and maybe one more for anything else like expanded USB or WiFi/BT card. Now if we could just get some premium m-ATX motherboards again instead of all of them being budget boards now days. I still have multiple ASUS ROG GENE boards in use and they have more functionality than about any m-ATX board you can buy today.
I just did my latest 13th gen build in this case. I completely agree with everything youve said, this case is flying under the radar, especially at the 75 bucks I picked it up at
An absolute steal. I can’t imagine a case being easier to build in. And it looks so nice
Out of curiosity, what PSU do you have and how long is your GPU. I'm trying (and failing) to wrap my head around the fitting situation there.
This is a beautiful looking case imo 💪🥰. I love my ITX builds, but this is a case that would get me to build a M-ATX pc setup no problem!
I am still rocking my Fractal Define Mini C with current specs. I just love the form factor if mAtx. Not too big, fills up the entire case with peripherals and 4 ram sticks.
TG would look weird; the 360 perforation looks clean and is the main feature of the case. The glow coming from your components but not being able to see them fully is kinda cool. If you want to see your goods I recommend the NR200 or a fractal case...
I just upgraded from an itx system in a Ghost S1 to an mATX system in one of these and I love it.
btw the spacing for the sqare mesh is inline with the bolt pattern of 120mm fans so you can fit 3 120mm at the bottom and 1 120mm fan under the psu if you use a sfx psu.
i have this case and love it
I love this case been using it for a few months.
Matx has always been my favourite, boards are cheap, compact enough, they’re just the happy medium!
Snappy Informative Video. 🤠👍
Yeah no temp. glass. Case looks Great thanks for the vid. You Rock.
The build is so clean
Two years ago I would have been excited as I was an mATX builder but I finally built an iTX for my current build and happier with the smaller footprint (NR200)
I’m really tempted to getting this case I already have a o11 air mini but the size was a bit too big for my desk. this case looks perfect
I bought this case when I realized the H210i was too big for my build. It is really cool but I will say that dust accumulation is a thing. I'm glad it's getting noticed a bit more, maybe that way Asus starts selling accessories to change the PSU location or add a fan bracket or a glass side pannel.
I will say, I'm pretty certain that the Lian Li O11 bracket for the upright GPU would fit on this case... But I wouldn't buy it to find out, really.
Fractal should take note: When you are making a compact case, make sure the power supply is installed at the front or top!
I rather have more GPU options to install the in the future than more AIO support for a compact case.
I'm looking at you Define 7 Mini and Nano with your restricted GPU support for a front intake focused case.
Love your hat!
I bought mine second hand (review unit) for only $40 and I absolutely love this case!
Moved my itx build to this case few weeks ago and it's great, squishing things into a small case was just too stressful.
Have an matx build in my Azon cart but could not decide on a case or color. I think this case in white with the glass side is the winner, Thanks!
Just bought aerocool cs-109 couple of days ago. Very surprised about how much space there is and the airflow. Definetly loving those small non-itx cases.
I got the black TG version. Its hella nice. I was able to stuff it with two T30 phantek fans , 3 arctic P12 fans, ROG AIO and b760 I mb , 13900k bracketed and a msi trio 4090 . With the glass closed the GPU hits 60ish max temps and cpu does 70ish max temps after hrs of CyberPunk at ultra settings. Its a great case with plenty of airflow and space but you MUST use a SFF power supply if youre going to run a 4090 or other card of similar size.
More ❤for mATX. For some reason it's the least released form factor, but the best imo. Compact yet 4 dimm slots. Always liked it the most. ATX is uneccessarly big and itx is to limited.
Nice to see the power cord connector in the back being vertical, on NR200 its not, which ruins some fan/radiator configs.
just built a pc for my living room in this case with parts of facebook marketplace, for my first micro atx build it was a dream to build in, my 2060 super runs at 60c or lower and the processer never hits above 50c on a stock cooler, such a great value
The true high king of thumbnails my guy.
beautiful cause. Still loving my Cooler Master Nr400
Can u do a review about the Jonsbo D41 please? It does have a mesh panel with a configurable screen, matx designs and also super sleek looking
Build in something just like this in all black. Absolutely love its look and size .
you can try the jonsbo d31, same formation, but the d31's psu cover will not let you down
I may get this and upgrade. I find my Versa H18 from Thermaltake is a little bulky for my liking, and while I'd miss having tg, I'd appreciate the increased airflow
Information from an owner: you can fit one 3.5 and 2 2.5 hdd to this case while using 2 bottom fans.
I love this case
It just looks beautiful in your b-roll I would like to see more mini itx cases like loque ghost s1 , Formd t1 and done Chinese brands would also do.
I bought this case last year on Black Friday when I built my PC, I have a 5800x3d and 6950 xt in there and the temps are very good. I like it a lot!
4:18 The mounting supply bracket they should sell a sfx bracket but what I winded up doing was used my old nr200 sfx psu case to create more space for gpu and aio. It’s not a perfect fit so the latches on the nr200 psu cage needs to be warped slightly to fit in. But this enables 360 aio and a 40 series gpus to fit.
I was looking at the black version of the case for months now and there are 2 in stock at my local Micro Center. I was about to pick it up until I saw the G Skill LT1 mATX case which looks very nice as well and it's cheaper.
I just picked up this case from Micro and was wondering why no one was talking about, Holds everything my torrent did with a small bump in temps. Amazing case. Have not been this impressed in a while.
