Tecware Forge M High-Airflow Micro-ATX Case Review

Interior

With the side panel removed, you’ll find a surprising amount of space in here, at least for such a compact case. It’s well proportioned, and the inclusion of a full-length PSU shroud means you’ll be able to hide a lot of horrors out of sight easily enough.

There’s a range of cut-outs dotted around the motherboard, which will certainly help with cable routing. Plus, a larger cut-out behind the motherboard will ease the installation of some CPU coolers.

The PSU shroud has a few cut-outs of its own, as well as plenty of ventilation to ensure it doesn’t become a heat trap under there. There’s a PSU viewing cut-out here.

Plus, a larger cut-away at the front, allowing you to use the full height of the front panel for a radiator.

In the front, you’ll find 3 x 120mm fans are pre-installed. That’s going to give you a huge amount of airflow right out of the box. Plus, they’re all ARGB, so you’re going to get a lot of kick-ass lighting effects as standard too!

Around the back, you’ll find an impressive 22mm of cable routing space. That’s quite a lot, especially when you can cram any excess under the PSU shroud too.

There’s a good range of cable tie-down loops dotted around the case. Plus, all the routing holes have rolled edges and rounded corners, so cables shouldn’t get snagged.

Under the shroud, you’ll find a good amount of space for the PSU and excess cables. Plus, there’s room for 1 x 3.5” + 1 x 3.5”/2.5” thanks to the small bracket towards the front.

There’s an hub included too, which controls all of the fans and ARGB lighting, making for a very quick and easy setup.
