I decided to purchase this case because I wanted to build a smaller computer which would save some space in my room. I had used the bigger version of this case before, so I decided to give it a try. Overall the case is great for its size. The cost and durability of this case was also a factor in my purchase. The only con I could think of in the case was the bottom rubber grommet. I believe that it should at least be extended a bit more due to the power supply blocking it. I used a EVGA 750BQ at first and I was able to route some cables through the lower grommet. I decided to switch this power supply with my Seasonic 1200W which is longer. This power supply will cover the entire grommet so there cannot be any routing through the bottom. This is a minor inconvenience for me since I ordered the non windowed case, so no need to make the cable routing too nice. Overall I am satisfied with the quality of this case and I would recommend it to anyone wanting to build a compact but powerful pc.- Computer SpecsIntel Core I7 6700KR9 Fury XSeasonic Platinum 1200W psuevga stinger z170 motherboardG.SKILL NT Series 8GB 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4Fractal Define S nano CaseStock 120/140mm case fansCRYORIG H5 Cpu coolerI decided to add my computer parts to help others. My temperatures are really good with all stock case fans. The cpu never goes above 55 degrees Celsius and it is overclocked to 4.5Ghz. My Fury X is also overclocked and it never goes past 65 degrees Celsius.

Max PSU unit size is 160mm according to the website, but I was able to fit a EVGA supernova 650W GQ inside (150 x 85 x 165 mm (WxHxD))The PSU snugly fits so getting it to tolerate anything larger than 165mm may be a bit ambitious as it almost presses up against my 980Ti. The case has plenty of room for multiple fans, I have 4 in mine currently (two in front, one on bottom, liquid cooler in the rear for 980Ti.) You can fit more in if you remove the sound bearing top, I could fit in 1 more at most due to the size of my Shadowrock LP CPU cooler.All of the HDDs are set up to be on the opposite side and there are plenty of openings for cable management as well.Only minor gripe for me is the position of the USB 3.0 ports, I personally have it facing me to the left under a table and the case is a little bit large for a mITX so it is hard to plug in devices on top to it.Overall great case, had to buy it to fit my large CPU cooler, 0 major complaints.

STUNNING ITX case with outstanding workmanship and design. It may seem strange that people get excited over a computer case - but Fractal Design should be proud of their cases and you will be proud to own it.Solid, hefty materials, understated black on black elegance and attention to detail make this a joy to house your system build. Especially nice touches are the cable grommets, all rolled edges (not a sharp edge or unfinished metal edge anywhere), thumbscrew retainers for left and right panels AND the drive mounting trays - a very pleasant surprise.I accidentally ordered the Define Nano thinking I was ordering the Define - but when I got the case decided right away token it and build an ITX box with low-noise parts, fanless power supply and SSD's to reduce moving (and vibrating) parts and everything fit great.As some have said - its not the smallest ITX case, but I like that there is plenty of room inside, outstanding airflow and you have the option to add water cooling, more fans, etc.

The Fractal Design Define Nano S is very nice case. I appreciate the clean, professional, minimalistic design. If you are looking to build a professional, quiet, small form factor PC then this is it!Pros:Excellent Build QualitySound Dampening Front and Side PanelsFull Intake Dust FiltersBlacked Out CablingIncludes High Quality FansBest Cable Management in any ITX CaseCons:A Little on the Large Side for an ITX CaseI have built quite a few custom ITX PCs. I've used cases such as the Corsair 250D, EVGA Hadron, Silverstone FT03-Mini, and Phanteks Enthoo Evolv. All of these are great cases, but there was always one or two things I didn't like about them. I can't say the same for the Define Nano S, as to me it is perfect.
