I'm considering building my first PC, but my desk doesn't have much space. I'm looking at smaller cases like the NZXT H2 Flow or the Corsair 2000D, but I'm curious about their performance. Will the compact size really hold me back? I want to play games but don't require ultra-high framerates. Has anyone had experience with these sizes of cases? I'd appreciate any advice!

Performance in a Mini-ITX is undiluted, but patience is key for first-time builders. If you can keep your cool during construction, you'll be golden. Just make sure to double-check your part clearances before finalizing your build. You’ll do just fine!
Going for a small form factor case makes things a bit trickier for your first build and may hike up the costs. I'd think twice before diving into that. But hey, if you have experience from something like a Voron 3D printer, that might help! Just take your time with it.

I’ve dealt with a bit of complexity before, so I’ll be careful and methodical about it.
