I was recently looking to buy a really small mATX case for an upcoming HomeLab storage server build (aka a custom NAS) and I ended up buying the Aerocool CS-106, a micro ATX case that promises full cooling support (including liquid cooling support with a 120mm radiator) - even though it's much smaller than many other mATX cases.
And the best bit? It cost me less than £20 here in the UK, which is approximately $25. That's great value, but does the case's performance stack up? I answer this (and more) in this video, where I show all aspects of the case off - and also show how a PSU and two motherboards would fit inside of it.
