additionally, you're paying the ITX tax. for an ITX, it's slightly decent price.
Edit: I must have typed 7800x3D by mistake. 9800x3D roughly $480 still.
This is a $70 itx case: https://www.newegg.com/cooler-mas...2MBKKS796
and this is a previous platform itx AM4 socket motherboard. I've seen those as low as $90: https://www.walmart.com/ip/ASRock...95a1c3
So yeah, no real ITX tax here.
If you're going with AM4 motherboard and CPU, of course it's going to be cheaper than the posted deal. With that route, mind as well grab a ATX or mATX AM5 bundle.
If folks want AM5 ITX build, this is a decent deal.

I'll ask then, what changes have been made between the $40 case and this case? A glass panel?
Also, they threw in a way-overpowered CPU and yet they only have an 850w PSU. So if I decide to upgrade down the road to something that actually needs the 9800x3D such as a 5090, I'm assuming I'd need to replace the PSU with a higher wattage, itx-specific PSU? Wonder if this case can even handle the heat from a 9800x3D and a 5090..
Props for being the only person to respond to me to actually say whether it's a good deal or not.

this is not a good deal. there's zero reason to buy this if you plan to get a 5090 in the future.
