C4-SFX
The C4-SFX case was developed with focus on strong cooling and high-end hardware compatibility - while be as small as possible.
This case uses a heavly optimized classic hardware layout. The list of features is long – 280mm radiator support, big air cooler up to 145mm in height, indirect GPU cooling, ITX, deep ITX, DTX, 3.9 slot full length GPU, SFX & SFX-L Power Supply support, s.o. All this is packed in an elegant enclosure with 14L made by Lian Li. In terms of hardware support there are nearly no limits.
This case is the perfect match for SFF (Small Form Factor) enthusiasts, developers who require a case with a smaller footprint due to limited desk space and gamers who want a high-end PC experience in their living room.
How It Works
The case allows for tower heatsinks with 120mm fan up to an height of 145mm like the Cryorig H7 or very big top blow heatsinks like the Noctua C14S. For these configurations it is possible to mount the power supply 90° rotated. With the radiator bracket it is possible to install 120, 140, 240 or 280mm radiators with 25mm thick fans for the best cooling results. You can install 3.9 slot GPUs with a length of up to 336mm. Two 120 or 140mm fan mount points at the top of the case allows for indirect GPU cooling if you remove the preinstalled GPU fans.
Two 2.5” HDDs or SSDs can be mounted at the front. The drives will be mounted with rubber spacers to reduce vibration and noise. The case does come with special air flow brackets and an RTX 40x0 Founders Edition air tunnel to force hot GPU air out of the case. This will result in much better CPU temps.

The all-aluminum body will be manufactured again by Lian Li in Taiwan per their highest quality standards. A commitment to quality lies at the core of our business philosophy.
Moving from my Phanteks shift case to this one was not a breeze, but not far off. I got my PC moved and booted in maybe two hours or so. The snap-off panels and screw-hatch on the bottom made a fair number of things much more pleasant than otherwise. I even changed out the RAM out from under the Noctua NH-C14S without needing to remove the cooler, which was a small joy (coincidentally one of the two recommended coolers from them for this case, the other the NH-D12L).
Not much else to say about it besides I like it.
Great case, look very nice and was easy to build in. A 4090 is a tight squeeze, but just about fits.
This is a great little case to build a high end htpc. Though it advertices it fits an SFX-L psu (I am using the Asus Loki), note that the psu cabling will hit the gpu and will not allow for the 4090 FE exhaust bracket to be remounted. I had to drill to holes below the psu mount holes to properly clear the SFX-L psu cables from hitting gpu exhaust fan. Also take note that if you are using a 280/240mm AIO cpu cooler, you will have to get crearive with your AIO hose routing to avoid hitting (and prevent from spinning) AIO and gpu (4000 fe series) fans.
Case is great, quality is good, missing dust filters compared to the NCASE M1 it’s replacing but otherwise a really clever well thought out design.
