I'm going to do a PC build as a gift for a family member that does not need a dGPU and likes very small PCs. Does anyone have some recommendations other than the InWin Chopin for a SFF mITX case that doesn't have a GPU bay?

I spend too much on my PC. Then I spend even more on my Sim Rig. Damn, this stuff's expensive.

Why not go with the ASROCK A300 then??
Its small, made for AMD and build for that so no hassle with putting hte Board inside a case and other shit. Only putting a Drive or two inside (Case supports 2x2,5" and 2x M.2 SSDs), CPU and Memory (SO-DIMM) and be done with it.

 

Other Options are for example Antec ISK110 but that's really really close and only if you know you don't use it at 100% load often.

Intel NUC is what you need.

Get the Devil Canyon variant if you need it to be able to gaming also.
