SSPUD’s new SFF case is made for mesh lovers

The SSUPD Meshlicious supplies practically as much mesh as you would certainly get out of its name. This 14L mini-ITX case sporting activities 3 panels of steel mesh, with a 4th tempered-glass panel that allows you display your graphics card. Or you can pick to display your CPU and also power supply rather, as the panels are quickly convertible– and also can additionally be bought individually to obtain the precise appearance you desire. But for currently, this design as defined is the initial one to release from Lian Li’s new sub-brand.

We went hands-on with it, and also as you’ll see in the video clip over, you can set up the Meshlicious in a variety of methods. It’s suitable with ATX power materials and also unabridged graphics cards, and also you have the choice of 2 various designs for GPU installing. Overall, this SFF case has a great deal going for it, though its peculiarities make operating in it much less than uncomplicated and also therefore a little bit a lot more complex for individuals new to sub-20L constructs.

Far a lot more complicated is SSUPD’s launch routine for the Meshlicious and also all of its variants. The business is taking orders in 2 sets: February 9 noted the beginning of the preliminary, and also this preliminary wave of pre-orders is just for a black variation with one mesh side panel and also one tempered-glass side panel that will certainly deliver inMarch One variation features a PCIe 3.0 riser wire and also has an early-bird cost of $110, while the various other sporting activities a PCIe 4.0 riser wire and also sets you back $165. Neither consist of the longer riser wire neither both standoff screws required for installing a SFF graphics card on top of thecase You’ll need to acquire those individually– either a 180mm or 200mm riser wire, plus 2 6-32 motherboard standoff screws.

The 2nd round of pre-orders start in April and also will certainly broaden the alternatives. SSUPD will certainly provide 2 shades (black and also white) as well as additionally include an all-mesh alternative to the schedule. These instances will certainly cost MSRP: $120 for the toughened up glass choice with a PCIe 3.0 riser wire, and also $130 for all mesh side panels and also a PCIe 3.0 riser wire. SSUPD has actually not yet introduced rates for the variations with a PCIe 4.0 riser wire. All April pre-orders will certainly deliver in May.

Despite the Meshlicious’ characteristics, this case includes yet an additional intriguing choice to select from for SFF home builders, particularly those resistant to invest $200 on a version like the Ncase M1 or Dan A4. The Meshlicious may not unseat Cooler Master’s $80 NR200 (which you can see in our PS5 COMPUTER develop from last November) when rating on worth or simplicity of usage, however it is still cost effective, particularly provided the amount of arrangements it can sustain.
