Budget small mAtx build
Came across this small $30 case on Amazon that holds mAtx boards and full size atx psu. The build quality is what you’d expect from a $30 case. However it’ll make a fine Bazzite box. Many of the reviews state that cooling is an issue however I was able to place 2 slim 120mm fans that I had from previous axp120x67 cooler that got swapped out by a Noctua slim fan in those build. If I notice high temps I’ll be replacing all the fans with slim noctua fans but for now staying under budget these will do. I also replaced the stock 80mm fan with a Noctua. Also living close to a micro center has perks I got the asrock mobo with 7500x3d cpu and 16gb of ddr5 ram for 300!!! The gpu I’m buying from FB market place and the storage is coming out of my ps5. Here’s the build next to a Xbox series X for comparison.
Specs:
CPU: 7500x3d
GPU: 9060xt 16gb (coming soon)
Ram: 1x16gb Flarex5 ddr5
Cooler: Thermalright Axp120-x67
Case fans: 2x120x15 (fans off the Axp120-x67)
PSU: MSI MAG A850GS 850W
Storage: 1TB Samsung 990pro (coming soon)
Case: TGDGAMER Matx Case
All in all it’s a pretty solid build on a budget in 2026.
