The OSMI Rev 3.1 from HG-Computers is a Mini-ITX case with a unique angular design. With outstanding build quality, thanks to its aluminium exterior, the OSMI Rev 3.1 is a great choice for anyone looking for something different.

OSMI mini-ITX case at a glance:

- Dimensions 180*265*180mm (H*W*D)

- 8.6L volume

- Made from aluminium with powder coated finish

- 2 x 2.5″ Drive Bays

OSMI mini-ITX case in detail:

Recent years have seen Small Form Factor (SFF) PCs become increasingly popular. Obviously they are desirable due to their relatively small footprint, which means they are suitable for a range of home and office environments, but often they also have more stylish and unique designs compared to mid-tower and larger cases. Also enthusiasts appreciate the challenge of fitting the prefect system in such a small box and even modifying them.

With its sleek design and solid aluminium construction the OSMI mini-ITX case is unique even among SFF cases. It has an almost console-like look, which is mainly due to its greater height vs length and width. This distinct cuboidal shape is complemented by an impressive thin aluminium construction that has been powdercoated. As a result it fits in just as well in the living room as a dedicated gaming space or office.

Console look but with PC performance

Despite its diminutive form factor though, the OSMI case has room for the components required to make a powerful gaming PC. There is space for two 2.5″ HDD or SSDs, a 140mm fan and there is sufficient clearance for a GPU of 170 x 140mm (LxW - excluding power connection) and a CPU cooler of 70mm. All you need to do is add a PSU (SFX - 100 X 125 X 63.5mm) and you have a system capable of playing outstanding games.

Overall then the OSMI mini-ITX is a great bundle in a small package.

Great case, choose components carefully though

It is expensive but the quality is good and what space it does have is well thought out. Fit a 140mm fan at the bottom of the case a small form factor graphics card (I used a GTX1650 without external power, SFF PSU and you will need a low profile cooler. Whilst it does have space for 2 2.5inch drives I would suggest you avoid these and go with a single large M2 drive, anything you can do to reduce cables is good in this case unless you make custom ones. My case did not have the silver front badge on the case, rather a cut out of the logo which doesn't look as good in my opinion but other than that it is perfect for a living room gaming / media PC if you work within it's constraints. Note that you will likely need to dissasamle the case to get your graphics card in as it is still tight.
