Cougar Dust 2 and MG140 Mini-ITX/Micro ATX Chassis Review

 

Conclusion and Verdict

In conclusion, the MG140 AIR RGB and the Dust 2 are both very viable cases, and both offer plenty of room, even for AIO coolers. Are there any downsides you ask? Well yes, these types of cases have their limitations, but you should already be prepared that your giant air cooler probably isn’t going to fit inside this case. Some of those air cooler cover the entire surface area of a mini-ITX bored. The cooling capabilities are very well in these small cases in my opinion. Both of these cases feature more than enough ventilation and even have a few fans included. It really comes down to what exactly you are looking for if you are wanting to shrink your desktop down to a mini build. If it fits a modern graphics card, and a 240mm AIO, and has decent ventilation, then you will not be sacrificing anything compared to a full ATX build.

You can buy the Cougar MG140 Air RGB Micro-ITX Chassis for around USD $79.99 from Newegg

You can buy the Cougar Dust 2 Mini-ITX Chassis for around USD $159.99 from Newegg

 

Pros:

  • Great Ventilation
  • Both fit ATX Power Supplies
  • Small Footprint
  • Great Cooling Compatibility
  • Included Fans

Cons:

  • None

 

Final Words

Both the Dust 2 and MG140 Air RGB are both a great representation of what a small form factor case must have. Space for a 240 AIO, can fit a modern full size graphics card, and decent ventilation. Any SFF case that is capable of this is going to be a great choice for a SFF build.
