NCore 100 Air - A nice vertical tower-style SFF case
I was going for a CPU upgrade and decided why not go for a new SFF case while at it. With the current RAM-pocalypse and ever-increasing GPU prices I simply reused most of the previous components I had with my previous Deepcool CH160 build.
Components
- MSI B650I Edge WiFi
- AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
- G.Skill Flare X5 DDR5-6000 CL32 32GB
- Gigabyte RTX 4070Ti Super Eagle OC 16GB
- 2TB Lexar NM790 Gen 4 SSD
- 2TB Lexar NM710 Gen 4 SSD
- Corsair SF 750W SFX Platinum PSU
- Cooler Master NCORE 100 Air
- Thermalright AXP90-X47 Full Copper
- Noctua NF-A9X14 PWM with NA-FD1 fan duct mod
Overall I very much like the clean tower aesthetic of this 14.7L case, it takes up a much smaller footprint on my tiny space-constrained desk. I work in production and the sleek silver look matches well with my MacBook Pro, which is nice and very reminiscent of the original Mac Pro cheese grater cases imo.
Cooler Master definitely nailed the vibe and fit with this case! The NCore 100 Air and its bigger brother the NCore 100 Max are definitely paying great homage to the Corsair One style of vertical tower cases!
