The May 2020 batch
A small quantity of white Velka 3 cases and some black pre-production units of a new APU case called the Velka 3-RL, will be available for purchase May 25th, 3:00 pm central time. Shipping available to USA only.
Power supplies will not be available until July, so please only consider this option if you can source your own Flex ATX
power supply.
The New Lineup
These models have been redesigned from the inside out, moving away from our original design philosophy for making the least expensive ultra SFF cases we can produce to the most balanced ultra SFF cases we can produce.
As such, we are now complementing expensive hardware layouts involving internal cables and numerous metal parts with improved materials, finishing, and quality control to improve their quality to price ratio. Likewise, we are simplifying the
hardware layouts of our less expensive cases to allocate more resources into better materials without increasing the price
(see Velka 3-RL below).
Availability is expected in late July.
Material changes
The first priority was to improve structural integrity and to resolve small hardware compatibility inconsistencies while keeping the original back-packable form factor.
- 1.2-1.5 mm aluminum all-around construction superseded by 5 mm aluminum front plates, 1.2 mm steel frame parts, 1.0 mm steel side panels
- Total weight: 1.5 kg - 2.0 kg
Appearance changes
- Hidden side panel screws
- New vent pattern with smaller individual openings and an equally high open area as before
- Sandblasted front plate with polished trim, other parts powder-coated
- White illuminated power button
- Available only in black
Velka 3-RL (4.1 L)
A new design that improves on the functionality of the original riser-less Velka 3.
Now featuring a simple two-piece structure for easier assembly, thicker aluminum, and increased CPU cooler clearance
for larger stock AMD coolers.
Price: 79.99 USD
We plan to make larger cases in this style at or below this price point, so let us know what you think.
Velka 3 (3.9 L)
Moved Flex ATX mount to top for improved cooling. Removed HDPLEX power supply support, removed 80 mm exhaust fan support, now intended only for builds with discrete graphics.
Price: 159.99 USD or 259.99 USD with 600W PSU (ENP-7660B)
The Velka 3 is the smallest case with ITX length graphics card and internal power supply support at a volume of just 3.9
L.
This case is ideal for those who want the smallest physically possible gaming PC. Made from thick steel and aluminum
panels to give each part and the complete build a solid feel.

Velka 5 (4.9 L)
A new case with an old name for those who want a Velka 3 with extra graphics card clearance. Slightly smaller desk footprint is an extra bonus.
Price: 179.99 USD or 279.99 USD with 600W PSU (ENP-7660B)
The Velka 5 combines Flex ATX PSU support from the Velka 3 and the graphics card compatibility improvement of the
Velka 7 to strike a careful balance between size and performance.
At just 4.9 L in volume, it is the smallest case with support for reference length graphics cards. Made from thick steel and
aluminum panels to give each part and the complete build a solid feel.

Velka 7 (5.9 L)
A case featuring hardware compatibility more similar to the 2019 Velka 5 model, with a new name. The Velka 7 layout
improves on the 2019 Velka 5 layout by having all IO at the rear.
Removed SFX-L PSU support (only SFX compatible).
Price: 199.99 USD
The Velka 7 offers an all-around improvement in hardware compatibility compared to the Velka 3 and 5 with a careful size
increase- most notably, having support for taller CPU coolers and SFX PSUs at a mere 5.9 L volume.
This case is ideal for those who need some additional performance headroom while keeping the backpackable form factor
or are downsizing from a larger system. Made from thick steel and aluminum panels to give each part and the complete
build a solid feel.
