SSUPD Meshroom S
Reddit take
AI summary of the Reddit excerpts below — not a quote
The SSUPD Meshroom S is a highly versatile 15L small-form-factor (SFF) case praised for its ability to house large components—including ATX motherboards and 280mm AIOs—while maintaining thermal performance comparable to much larger cases. Its all-mesh design ensures excellent airflow, making it a popular choice for high-end builds like the RTX 4090. However, the build process is frequently described as difficult, with significant challenges in cable management and strict compatibility trade-offs when using non-ITX components.
Pros
- Exceptional airflow and cooling performance due to the all-mesh chassis.
- Highly versatile; can support ATX, mATX, and ITX motherboards with appropriate configurations.
- Fits large GPUs and up to 280mm (or even 360mm with expansions) AIO radiators.
- Small footprint with a vertical orientation that saves desk space.
- Competitive pricing compared to other boutique SFF cases.
Cons
- Challenging build experience, especially for cable management in tight spaces.
- Build quality can feel less premium or 'cheaper' compared to high-end CNC-machined alternatives.
- Right-angled motherboard connectors are often inaccessible due to the tight fit.
- Limited clearance for air coolers, making it primarily suited for AIO liquid cooling.
Caveats
- While ATX motherboards and PSUs are technically supported, using them simultaneously is often impossible or extremely restrictive.
- A modular SFX PSU is highly recommended; using an ATX PSU leaves almost no room for cable routing.
- Specific colors, like the teal blue version, are discontinued and only available on the used market.
Best for
- SFF enthusiasts who want to downsize without necessarily replacing their ATX or mATX motherboard.
- High-performance builds requiring maximum airflow in a compact volume.
- Users planning to use AIO liquid cooling.
Avoid if
- You are a novice builder or easily frustrated by difficult cable management.
- You prioritize a 'premium' heavy-metal feel over mesh functionality.
- You intend to use a large tower air cooler for the CPU.

meshroom s ?
I owned that. It’s a very cheap case that does not feel premium at all like the formd t1
Meshroom S I didn't know about it! I like the mesh.
didn’t have a good time building with the meshroom s (and I tried twice). it’s very difficult and the end result isn’t as aesthetically pleasing as i thought
The case I used (SSUPD Meshroom S V2 [https://ssupd.co/products/cases-meshroom-s-v2](https://ssupd.co/products/cases-meshroom-s-v2) ) is a 15 liter case, this is quite a bit smaller than your usual cases, but this one is nice as it fits some very large graphics cards, AIOs, or even full size motherboards, depending on the configuration.
and a SSUPD Meshroom D or Meshroom S could also work for your use case.
If you want vertical like the H2 I would recommend the Meshroom s, imo it’s a better case. That case is pretty much designed for aio’s though.
It's an extremely popular case of late, and for good reason. It looks nice, isn't that expensive, and the all mesh design allows it to get great airflow.
SSUPD Meshroom S V2 - Only some ATX motherboards fit, and you will need an SFX PSU. Any right angled connectors on the motherboard will not be accessible since the case is literally the size of an ATX motherboard and no more. You’ll be limited to low profile CPU coolers as well.
Then there's the SSUPD Meshroom S V2 and Meshroom D, which can technically fit an ATX PSU, mini-ITX motherboard, an AIO, and fairly larger modern GPUs. But really only if it's a modular PSU as there's *no* space to put extra cables.
