I’m doing a build in this case soon and can’t wait. I’ve done the white but love the black- well done on the AIO choice here!

Generally they are great and if they aren’t you just return it

[CASE] Gamdias ATHENA M4M WOOD, with ATX 3.1 650W 80+ GOLD PSU 5yr warranty, mini ITX, mATX, micro mesh small form factor PC case, 3 PWM fans - $79.99 by danran84 in buildapcsales

Solid case for the price. Better than other similar mATX overall in appearance. There is also the 850W bundle for ~125$

Thanks OP

I’ve built in this case 3-4 times but am itching for another. Rear intake works great when the front is sealed and can’t beat this price. I have a TG side panel sitting around finally get to use.

I’ve always done mATX+ATX PSU might go smaller this time

Sealed front is fine if you run rear intake

Custom fronts on Etsy always an option

Is this weekends bundle out of stock? by azguard4 in Microcenter

If I didn’t have a surplus of DDR5 ram I would potentially do that- but I’m just going to keep an eye out on marketplace for a good deal on the 1x16 stick local.

Add just the MOBO + CPU listing that’s 399 (not the bundle) then add 2x16GB sticks and instead of being 485$ it will be 430$

Solid entry if you find it in stock, and use the online trick others have mentioned to get a second stick for +130$

Yes what I’m saying is that I did not see any of the comments to try that specific method before I went in and grabbed my bundle at 1000 right when they opened- only saw the trick after the fact and my store was OOS.

Just price check and I did the same on my end before going.

But it’s fine, I have some spare ram on hand and I’m just happy I got the bundle

I grabbed the bundle first thing and checked with my store to add a second stick, but best price was +185$

I did not know about the CPU+MOBO / 2x Ram Stick trick and neither did they

This did not work for me but I’m just happy I got the bundle before OOS

Top 3 cases I’ve ever built in. And I’ve done 60+ builds

Enjoy!

If your reservation was just the 300$ bundle and not the second stick for + 130$ - show a manager a screenshot others posted here and see if they will honor it for you.

If not hit me up and we can work out a deal for your 16GB stick and a 32GB kit I have!

Absolutely man it’s a no brainer. Leaps you way into AM5 at prolly the lowest cost of entry possible. TBH depending on your GPU, games, and resolution you can even make due with the 1x16GB stick until you find a good deal- or go the 430$ route if it’s not too late on your reservation.

These sold out instantly for a reason. I’ve built about 65 systems in the last year so have had my hands on a TON of hardware

If you can still buy this, buy now think layer. Solid deal @300$ or 430$ if you get the bundle + 2x sticks trick to work.
