Pros & Cons
Pros
Mini itx motherboard ga-z77n-wifi intel core i3-3225 dual-core processor 3. Real simple and real install an 80mm fan inside the case, pulling air out the side vent, and install an80mm fan pushing air in from the other side vent.
I wish it had was an ir receiver built in, but i'll probably just stick it on the side. Still running strong.
Surprisingly roomy interior, easy to work with (except cpu cooler clearance) 1. The only issue i have is the power supply touches the cpu cooler fan. The greater the air flow, the lower the temperatures, the greater the longevity of the computer compo... Read More
Cons

Highlights
Quality
The rolled edges are a nice touche to reduce cuts to hands, especially when working in a mini itx case.

Onboard parallel port input pins could not be made to function.
Price
Total cost of the build was ~$500 us in nov 2022.

Competitiveness
I ended up replacing the amd stock cpu fan with a scythe kozuti low profile cpu fan.

The first is that when installing a pcie card video card in my case there is a metal bar on the edge of the slot that can obstruct access to the ports as it did for the hdmi ports on my card

It also would be nice to have a front usb port that is not covered by the little plastic flap

Many low end graphics cards need at least 300w and it would be nice if the built in power supply could support that

Ive had numerous problems with video cards that i believe can be attributed to the power supply though i havent confirmed this yet

Once i started building i discovered that it was a lot tighter inside than i would have liked
