Box Contains Case, user manual, accessory box Review: Kompakt und doch so groß - Die Beweggründe für dieses Gehäuse waren: mögliche CPU-Kühlerhöhe, Gehäusehöhe, einige wenige Erweiterungsplatzwünsche, der Preis und dass es nicht völlig häßlich ist (Geschmackssache). Die positiven Überraschungen folgten dann beim Zusammenbau: Überall ordentliche Rändelschrauben, die vorverlegten Kabel sauber zusammengebunden und durchdachte Durchlässe für weitere Kabel, keine scharfen Grate, und für die Außenabmessungen erstaunlich viel Platz im Inneren. 5.25 Zoll Einschübe findet man keine vor, internes CD Laufwerk spielt es also nicht, und auch die Sloteinbau-Lüftersteuerungen kann man sich nur daneben auf den Boden legen. Andererseits hat es eine Menge gut zugänglicher 3.5 Zoll Slots unten, zumindest 4 2.5 Zoll SSDs kann man auch noch ohne Maßnahmen hineinhängen, und an eine Wasserkühlung wurde auch gedacht (es wird aber durchaus eng). Review: Better than Expected - I bought this for my son's setup and was, admittedly, looking for something that didn't break the bank while still being good enough for his gaming needs. This fit the bill even better than expected. The airflow is great and even when he's gaming heavily, there's cool air flowing out. Granted, we did buy fans to fill the additional bays, but it was doing okay even before those were installed. I've bought cases in this price range before and have always been disappointed in one way or another; not so with this case. There was plenty of room for his Nvidia 760 card, which is 10.5", and the drive bay layout was sensical and easy to work with. There was plenty of room to hide the cords away too. I was impressed by the depth of the side resevoir. My Antec 902 case is large, and handles the cords, but you have to pinch them in. I didn't have to do that with this case. So, if you think this will fit your needs, I don't think you have any reason to hesitate clicking "Buy". This is proving to be adequate for gaming, looks snazzy, and has good build quality. I'll be looking at this company's other products when I decide to replace my Antec case. ## Features - Elegant mid-tower with elegant styling suitable for home or office - Supports ATX, microATX, and mini-ITX motherboards - Easily accommodates full-size GPUs and PSUs - Watercooling support for 120mm radiators - Drive bays: 2x 5.25”, 2x 2.5" SSD and 2x 3.5" HDD ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B016ENWHH0 | | Antenna Location | Gaming | | Brand | RIOTORO | | Brand Name | RIOTORO | | Case Type | Mid Tower | | Case type | Mid Tower | | Colour | Black/Red | | Compatible Devices | CPU | | Cooling Method | Water | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 117 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) | | Fan Size | 120 Millimetres | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00851001006016 | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 2.5 Inches, 3.5 Inches, 5.25 Inches | | Internal Bays Quantity | 3 | | Item Weight | 5.7 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | RIOTORO | | Manufacturer Part Number | CR280 | | Material | Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) | | Model Name | CR280 | | Model Number | CR280 | | Motherboard compatibility | ATX | | Number of Fans | 2 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Strategisch plazierte Innenbohrungen und Befestigungspunkte für einfaches und übersichtliches Kabelmanagement, zusätzliche Kühlungsbefestigungspunkte für Lüfter oder Wasserkühlung | | Power Supply Mounting Type | Bottom Mount | | Product Warranty | 2 year warranty | | Recommended uses for product | Gaming | | Supported Motherboard | ATX | | Total USB 3.0 Ports | 2 | | Total USB Ports | 2 | | UPC | 851001006016 718929128957 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** RIOTORO - **Motherboard compatibility:** ATX - **Case type:** Mid Tower - **Recommended uses for product:** Gaming - **Colour:** Black/Red - **Material:** Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) - **Power supply mounting type:** Bottom Mount - **Cooling method:** Water - **Model name:** CR280 - **Fan size:** 120 Millimetres ## Images ![RIOTORO CR280 Mini-ITX Tower Case, Window, Ultra-small Footprint, Full-size Performance - Black/ Red - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/519CGuFeJPL.jpg) ![RIOTORO CR280 Mini-ITX Tower Case, Window, Ultra-small Footprint, Full-size Performance - Black/ Red - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51htVDbPM3L.jpg) ![RIOTORO CR280 Mini-ITX Tower Case, Window, Ultra-small Footprint, Full-size Performance - Black/ Red - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51rV8g0dW9L.jpg) ![RIOTORO CR280 Mini-ITX Tower Case, Window, Ultra-small Footprint, Full-size Performance - Black/ Red - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Szpcjz4aL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will i need screws when i install the motherboard?** A: Most motherboards comes with screws, but the case does come with pre-installed standoffs and screws. **Q: Could a radeon R9 390x fit ?** A: Dear Deivid,RIOTORO CR480 supports : Max GPU length 320mmRadeon 390x dimensions : 308 X 127 X 42.3 Dimension /mm So yes, it should house it without any issues!

Ci entra di tutto anche dissipatore alti 160mm (il mio thermatake silent riing pro red entra alla perferione e rimane anche qualche millimetro) non vi fate ingannare dai 135mm segnati sul loro sito. Direi che è l'unico case tower mini itx dove si ci può far entrare di tutto. Ottima la gestione dei cavi e l'air flow. Dalle foto potete vedere tutte le modifiche apportate, anche il pannello laterale completamente trasparente. Unico appunto consiglio un alimentatore sfx, con adattatore atx (nel mio era già in scatola), anzichè standard atx per avere maggior spazio e aria per la scheda video. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/58178338-riotoro-cr280-mini-itx-tower-case-window-ultra-small-footprint](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/58178338-riotoro-cr280-mini-itx-tower-case-window-ultra-small-footprint) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-07-16*
