"Fractal Design's Define Nano S Is The Best Mini-ITX Case You Can Buy - Swedish case and component brand Fractal Design has a new case, made for the small-and-efficient market, that actually suits PC gamers well at the same time. Fractal Design’s Define Nano S is a refined, straightforward Mini-ITX computer case that will house a high-end system if you need it to, and it will keep it cool and quiet at the same time."
"At a price tag of 69 USD / 75 EURO I think that Fractal Design offers a very nice balance of proper aesthetics combined with a very decent feature-set chassis. In terms of ITX usage, you can simple mount plenty of components even with some liquid cooling options available."
"The Define Nano S is an excellent case for anyone looking to assemble the ultimate mini-ITX build. Although it may be a bit large for some purists, the extra room will be more than welcome by those who want to build small without sacrificing performance. Finally, its $70 price tag provides the ultimate value for builders looking for a mini-ITX case."
