  I wanted to transfer my old desktop PC into a small case. It's the first time I use such a small case. Everything was transferred and fit perfectly. The motherboard is 17x22, I think the maximum it can fit is 18x22. I don't think there are any new matx motherboards that come in a size smaller than 18 cm in width, so as another reviewer mentioned, it will be harder to find a suitable matx for a new PC. Next to the power supply, there is space to leave the extra cables. The downside of the power supply position is that it disrupts the airflow from front to back. Compared to the previous case, the temperatures are higher, but the previous one was much more spacious. For the purpose I bought it (for a desktop PC that takes up as little space as possible), it served me well and the purchase was worth it. For something more demanding, I don't think it's worth it.

  Unacceptable product. It states on the packaging and in most descriptions online that it supports matx motherboards, which is true under certain conditions, meaning it only fits certain smaller-sized matx cards. This specific detail is not apparent from the beginning and required a lot of searching online to discover, unfortunately after I had already purchased it, so my money went down the drain. Also, there is no way to install a regular-sized matx without bending or breaking the PSU bracket, where 1) even if the motherboard fits afterwards, it won't accommodate a full-sized PSU as kolink claims, and 2) new screw holes will be needed to secure the motherboard. It's a shame because the Kolink Sanctuary was decent, but this one, despite its beauty and small size, does not live up to the company's descriptions regarding its compatibility with all matx motherboards. Be very careful before buying it.

  Update

  I managed to fit an A320 matx after breaking part of the PSU bracket. The full ATX PSU and the motherboard fit tightly, but then I had an issue with installing the graphics card, which required breaking the PCI bracket. After that fit, I had a problem with installing the hard drives, where the HDD was hitting the fan and the power supply. Eventually, everything squeezed in and the PC worked, but I deemed it unreliable since the multiple squeezing might have damaged the graphics card, not to mention the case became a Frankenstein from the modding. In the end, I threw it in the recycling bin. That's it.
