What sets the Deepcool CH160 Black Desktop Cabinet apart is its emphasis on airflow and usability.
The Deepcool CH160 Black Desktop Cabinet features mesh panels on nearly every face—front, top, rear, bottom, and the right side—to maximize ventilation and cooling potential in tight spaces.
The left side is tempered glass, allowing visual access to internal components.
In a case this compact, many compromises are expected, but Deepcool CH160 Black Desktop Cabinet makes bold ones optional.
It supports a tall air cooler of up to 172 mm, offering room for strong cooling performance.
For graphics, it accommodates direct GPU insertion (no riser) for 3-slot dual-fan cards up to 305 mm in length, which is rare for such small enclosures.
Power supply options are generous: users can use standard ATX PS2 (up to 140 mm length) or switch to SFX / SFX-L depending on build needs.
The Deepcool CH160 Black Desktop Cabinet doesn’t include fans by default, but supports up to 1×120 mm in front (shared mount with drive), 2×120 mm on top, and 1×120 mm rear.
A practical touch is the sturdy carrying handle atop the case, making it ideal for those who move rigs regularly (LAN parties, events, etc.).
Maintenance is made easier with three removable dust filters.
In essence, the Deepcool CH160 Black Desktop Cabinet combines portability, airflow, and component flexibility in a compact design.
For users who want power in a small form with fewer compromises, it’s an excellent choice in the mini-ITX space.
