Yep, but you need to put insane amounts of research into figuring out which GPUs and CPU coolers can fit your small case...

And then you get your case and mobo and PSU and maybe CPU and your budget is already at over 1000€ and you still need a GPU.



This is a fairly low spec device. You can comfortably fit all the hardware, case, PSU, cooling etc. in a $600-700 budget. If you want to go small form factor then it'll cost a bit extra, but not that much extra.


Trust me, I've tried. No success yet.

Not a PC gaming expert though and I don't have infinite resources to spend on figuring out how many millimeters of space each specific case has and how long a GPU is =)

But I've seen enough horror stories where someone bought a GPU or a heatsink that was like 5mm too big and didn't fit in the case without a hammer.
