FSP Group CMT 160 Black ATX Mid-Tower Case - POC0000157

FSP Group CMT 160 Black is a compact middle tower case aimed at budget and functional configurations, without unnecessary lights and windows. It supports ATX, Micro ATX, and Mini ITX motherboards, giving you freedom of platform choice. Despite its more modest size, it accommodates graphics cards up to 350 mm, which is more than enough for most modern mid-range GPUs. No fans are included, allowing you to choose airflow according to your needs and budget.

What you get is a practical and clean case focused on functionality. With 1 x 3.5" bay and 2 x 2.5" slots, you can comfortably combine a larger HDD for storage and up to two SSDs for system and games. The available 5.25" bay allows you to install an optical drive, fan controller, or front panel for additional ports – something that is rarely seen in new cases. A CPU cooler with a height of up to 150 mm is more than enough for standard air coolers, as long as you are not chasing extreme overclocks. The power supply is mounted on top and supports models up to 160 mm, which is typical for mass-market PSUs.

• Support for motherboards in ATX, Micro ATX, and Mini ITX formats, so you can easily change platforms without changing the case.
• Maximum graphics card length of 350 mm, which opens the door for most modern mid-range and some longer high-end models.
• Height restriction for CPU cooler up to 150 mm, suitable for compact and mid-range air coolers.
• Available 1 x 3.5" and 2 x 2.5" bays for combining HDD for volume and SSD for fast boot and games.
• Additional 5.25" bay, giving you the option for an optical drive, fan controller, or front bay accessories.
• Front I/O with 1 x USB 3.0, 2 x USB 2.0, and HD Audio, so you have quick access to flash drives, headphones, and peripherals.
• Power supply placement on top and support for PSU up to 160 mm, compatible with most standard power supplies.

This case is suitable for budget and office configurations, a home PC for internet, movies, and more casual gaming experiences without claims for massive cooling or RGB shows. It is also suitable if you want to recycle an older ATX motherboard and PSU with top mounting. It is not the best choice if you plan a powerful gaming build with a large air cooler, many fans, or water cooling, as there are clear limitations here.

The strongest point of FSP CMT 160 Black is the combination of compact size, support for standard ATX components, and practical extras like a 5.25" bay and a sufficiently long graphics card slot – without paying for unnecessary visual effects.
