The Prodigy M is back for 2022. This cube-like compact case by BitFenix has a unique futuristic design that supports Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards. The mesh front and top ensure excellent airflow while the tinted tempered glass side panel showcases internal components and the included ARGB fans. Inside there is space for large high-end graphics cards and numerous storage drives. This case is ideal for creating a portable and powerful PC with a stylish RGB and sleek black aesthetic.
The Prodigy M 2022 is an attractive compact case constructed with high-quality materials. Two handles on the top of the housing offer a secure hold during transport and fit perfectly into the futuristic design. The robust construction and handles mean it is the ideal choice for creating a powerful, yet portable PC with support for Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX motherboards. The front and top of the case are made of mesh which ensures excellent airflow and cool operating temperatures. The mesh on the front is further showcased with a white edge and the attractive BitFenix logo. Alternatively, an acrylic plate can be fitted to the top of the case for a clear view of the internal components. On the side to highlight the internal hardware, the BitFenix Prodigy M 2022 has a side panel made of tinted, 4mm thick tempered glass. This feature provides a great view of your high-end components and enhances the effect of the internal RGB lighting. The Prodigy M 2022 ARGB comes preinstalled with 3 x 120mm black ARGB fans. These can be found in the bottom and rear of the case and are controlled with the included fan and ARGB control. Alternatively, you can connect them to a compatible motherboard for a synchronised lighting effect.
Despite its compact size, the Prodigy M 2022 has plenty of space for high-end gaming systems. Graphics cards up to 339 mm are supported, which includes the latest high-end cards such as the GeForce RTX 3090 or Radeon 6900 XT. Depending on your preference, dual-slot GPUs can also be installed vertically or horizontally when you purchase a riser cable separately. There is also room to accommodate plenty of storage and both 3.5" and 2.5" drive slots are available. This ensures gamers and content creators will always have access to sufficient storage capacity.
Great cooling in a compact case is essential and a total of up to seven fans can be installed in the Prodigy M 2022. There is space for two fans up to 140mm in size on the top and two 120mm fans on the bottom. The rear of the case has space for a single 120mm fan. The front offers space for a 120mm and 60mm fan. To save time when building your PC a black 60mm fan comes pre-installed in the front of the case. It’s been designed to optimise airflow directly to the graphics card. Another 3 black ARGB 120mm fans come pre-installed on the bottom and rear of the case. The depth of the Prodigy M 2022 has enough space to install a CPU cooler with a maximum height of 179 mm. If you prefer to cool your processor with an AIO cooler this case can support a 280mm radiator in the top or a 120mm radiator at the back. To ensure the Prodigy M 2022 stays clean and dust-free there are three included magnetic filters. These can be found on the front, back and below the ATX power supply. Each one can be easily removed for cleaning.
The I/O panel on the side provides a total of three USB ports for additional connectivity and easy access when connecting peripherals or USB memory sticks. Of these, one is USB 3.1 type C and two are USB 3.0 Type-A ports. In addition, there are two 3.5 mm jack connections for plugging in a headset and microphone.
