EMBER4.0
A small footprint with a bold presence.
EMBER4.0 takes a different shape: a bronze Cooler Master NCORE 100 MAX with a tall, narrow profile and an orange-lit desk setting. It offers strong gaming performance without taking up the width of a glass tower. The case has solid panels, so the emphasis is on its striking exterior rather than a view of the components.

A useful starting specification

- Motherboard
- ASUS ROG Strix B850-I Gaming WiFi, mini-ITX
- Memory

- Storage

- Cooling
- NCORE’s included 120 mm liquid CPU cooler
- Power
- NCORE’s included 850 W SFX Gold power supply
Why these parts?
The 65 W Ryzen 7 is a sensible starting point for the case’s included 120 mm CPU cooler. MSI lists the selected RTX 5070 Ti at 303 × 121 × 49 mm, within the case’s published expansion-mode graphics-card envelope. Final cable and connector clearance still needs an actual dry fit and thermal test.
Make it yours
Ember is for the person who wants 16 GB graphics memory and a dramatic desk presence without a wide glass tower. We can tune the lighting and storage, but we would not trade cooling headroom for a hotter processor just to make the parts list look grander.

Jamie's 2024 compact gaming PC used an NCore 100 Max case. His story shows how the brief shaped the specification and how the team resolved a fan-noise issue. EMBER4.0 is a newer concept with a different finish and parts list.
