-2666MHZ RAM?

-Bad Case

 

Also OP didn’t ask for mini itx. Also why get a Pure Power 11 when the Neo Eco Gold is cheaper, 100 more Watts, and better quality?

The part about the RAM isn’t true, watch gamersnexus video in the 10400. Goes into depth of 2666 vs 3200 and the difference is pretty huge.
