Xigmatek Also Launches the Eris Cube-type Mini-ITX Case

In addition to the Maverick S line of PSUs, Xigmatek launched the Eris, a cube-type mini-ITX case. Dressed in matte-black steel, with faux brushed-metal front, the Eris measures 225 mm x 355 mm x 180 mm (WxDxH), dry-weighing 3.06 kg. It offers enough room for a 240 x 120 mm radiator. Its storage system includes a 5.25-inch drive bay, which can be used up to hold a 3.5-inch drive inside, and another 3.5-inch/2.5-inch discrete drive bay. The case features two expansion slots, and can hold full height graphics cards as long as 300 mm. There's room for CPU coolers as tall as 140 mm. Ventilation includes two 120 mm top exhausts, two 80 mm side exhausts, and an 80 mm rear exhaust. The case features passive intakes at several spots. Xigmatek didn't announce pricing or availability details.

This case just went on sale on JD.com in China in the last week. price is 289 rmb or around $44 - they also have another case that is very similar, the Octans Mini ITX - it is 399 rmb or about $66.

Search xigmatek on JD.com and you will find them. - search.jd.com/Search?keyword=xigmatek&enc=utf-8

If you need a rad on a mini-ITX you've missed the whole point of the case.

very cool case... i like it. Always been a Xigmatek fan.

So front mounted Full ATX PSU? and 300mm GPUs? Crazy if so but doubtful i think so.

No. The point for many consumers is to pack a hard punch in as small of a case as possible minus unneeded storage (in their opinion), and other such functions/components. It is all about customizing hardware to match their most-used application and specific needs.

Factors such as silence and performance are all relative in each instance. Some people attempt to strike a fine balance between the two, and in such a case, would require just a little more space to fit a radiator.
