Mechanic Master C28 Compact MATX Portable Gaming Case Yellow

Built a computer in this case for a youngster. But TBH I also think it looks pretty cool. I don't know why you would get any color other than "construction yellow." The case is easy to build in, came with all the needed accessories, and everything fit together reasonably well. The build quality is pretty high, and there are quite a few "premium" touches. They certainly do like their logo, which appears in multiple places in the sheet metal and on the glass. I like that it has full-height slots and doesn't require a riser for the GPU, though of course in a case this size your GPU options are limited. I found a dual-fan 4060 Ti 16GB on clearance and it fit just fine. I don't think you'd be putting an AIO in here. It says it will take a 240, but 240s are getting pretty rare and aren't super efficient. In general, there's plenty of room for a decent air cooler, with the usual caveat that you don't want one with a fan on top if it'll be too close to the glass to get airflow. I used a MinisForum BD790i motherboard, which has extremely modest cooling requirements, and it was a nonissue. I recommend using an SFX-L power supply to balance noise and volume. Silverstone makes some nice ones and if you overspec it, the PSU fan simply won't ever run. If you want to fully load it up with fans, the lower front fan port is a 90mm. Fans of that size tend to run loud, so you have to be pretty to pick a good one. I used a Noctua Chromax NF-A9 and it's a perfect match. The bottom line is a tiny, adorable system that is whisper quiet when idle. The GPU ramps up a bit under heavy load, but GPUs have improved a lot in this area and what noise it does make is hardly the fault of the case. One small downside is that the PSU is necessarily completely contained, so you're not going to have access to the PSU power switch once it's closed up. That probably won't be a problem. Probably. All in all, it's a delightful little case with a lot going for it. Great for the young and the (I like to think) young at heart. Just get the yellow one. You know you want to.

Like other reviews I read, I wasn't too sure about this case. I ended up going the air cooler route and got the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE ARGB along with 2 of the 3 pack matching rgb fans (Thermalright TL-C12C-S X3 CPU Fan 120mm ARGB Case Cooler Fan). If you plan on running a 40 or 50 series graphics card you will 100 percent need a compact psu, I recommend the corsair RM1000e due the the super tight spot where the gpu Fan and the psu cables face. The extra flexibility of the cables with this psu is really nice. Lastly, you will need slim, low profile ram sticks. I failed to notice that requirement and had to raise one of the fans on the air cooler, not a big deal though lol. Other that that I am overall pretty happy with how it turned out. The case is very well made, it's an aluminum frame with and aluminum shell built like a tank, and once everything is installed the yellow looks really nice. One last thing, theres is very little room for cable management.

Great case. Large enough to have room to cable manage and give your hardware some breathing room, but small enough to be able to fit in a carry-on case. The handle can manage the PC fully kitted, and I never felt like it was going to snap on me. The provided instructions aren't the best, but if you've built PCs before, it's nothing too difficult.

Wasn't sure about this case when I couldn't find it on PCPartPicker but took a chance and it paid off - this thing is awesome! Very sturdy, easy to set up (despite a very vague instruction manual), and probably weighs about 12-15 pounds when fully built so very portable. No sizing issues for any mATX build/parts. Also the yellow looks great!

The case fits everything like it says, ATX psu, matx motherboard and a 6700xt slides right in 👍

Build Specs for reference: ITX Asus B860i, intel ultra 7, Asus Tuf RTX 4070ti super, MSI A13 240mm aio, (2x) Arctic 140mm/ (1x) Arctic 80mm, Corsair SF750 Honestly, I bought this case primarily for the aesthetic and gpu compatibility. I thought there would be more trade-offs especially doing an ITX build but it’s much better than expected. Thermals: One “flaw” if I could call it that is that I bought an 80mm case fan to put as intake on the front but it didn’t fit with one of the three PSU orientations, but I hesitate to call it a flaw only because the thermals are great without the front intake so I put it as exhaust while I get a 120mm exhaust fan. I took a risk with the 140mm bottom fans but there was just enough clearance where it doesn’t touch the gpu and I averaged 60C - 65C in game on high/ultra, though I would recommend getting 120mm or just low profile bottom fans. Make sure to get a cpu that runs on the cooler side so for intel new gens no more than ultra 7 and for AMD ryzen 7 newer gen x3ds are more than enough. There are 3 decent ways to orient the PSU but just choose what best works for your cpu fan choice and motherboard size. Assembly: The case is very well made but that is expected at this price point just be careful not to strip screws because the black paint flakes when overtightened. The removable panels make it just so much easier to assemble the components and arrange cables. I highly recommend pre-wiring before the aio goes in because the space gets very tight once the radiator goes in, I ended up installing the aio last for that reason. There is just enough space to keep the aio tubes and wring from touching each other and any of the components, though the tube is very close to the gpu it isn’t actually making contact. Looks: The yellow has a really nice matte finish with a little bit of texture that feels premium. I was choosing between this one and the silver finish but tbh they both could look great with the right colors.

Love the build I made with this. Great case, handle is strong.
