Xigmatek Nebula C Mini-ITX Chassis Review

Complete System


The Nebula was surprisingly easy to work with, although a lot of that is attributed to my use of a mini-ITX form factor graphics card; the Sapphire 285 Compact. I’ve also used a low-profile CPU cooler, which helps keep compatibility at a maximum, but you should ensure you have compatible components prior to building in any chassis anyway.

I’ve used my BitFenix Fury power supply, which has pre-braided cables and I found it rather easy to work with in terms of cable routing in this chassis. There’s a good amount of space at the back of the PSU and towards the front of the chassis for excess cables, which were easily managed with the use of a couple of cable ties.

The top hard drive bays are of a really nice quality, the bottom tray will hold a pair of 2.5″ hard drives and there are clip-on rails included to install a 3.5″ drive above them; more than enough storage for a chassis of this size.

It is a small chassis, so things were going to be tight, but there’s still good clearance for the GPU, PSU and rear exhaust fan; the less obstructions the better and the Nebula C is doing a great job.

Overall, a nice build that went a lot smoother than I expected given the compact size of the chassis; it shows that Xigmatek put a lot of thought into the layout.

All panels back in place and the Nebula C looks just as clean and beautiful as it did when I took it out of the box.
