Complete System


The Metis isn’t the easiest chassis to work with, as it’s very compact on the interior and cable routing space is limited. Despite its compact form factor, I was able to install our test components in about 20 minutes, with the only exception being that I’ve not used our test graphics card, the Sapphire R9 270X, as it’s much longer than this chassis. I’ve used our low profile Cooler Master cooler, but you could easily install something bigger, perhaps even a 120mm AIO water cooler if you’re feeling adventurous.

The Seasonic power supply I used it quite big, so installing the cables was a little tricky, but there’s a little room above the PSU for excess cables, even more so as I didn’t install a graphics card.

Airflow in the chassis is a little limited, with most of the airflow coming from the left side panel, but since this chassis isn’t designed for ultra high-end components, that shouldn’t really be a problem.

With all panels back in place, we can see that the Metis is one great looking product. The components fit in easy enough and there’s plenty of room on the interior for a compact gaming build. If I were to build my own rig in here, I’d certainly be looking at a compact GPU, as this would make a great LAN gaming battle box or HTPC style gaming system.
