When a Mini-ITX-compliant small PC case also supports dual-slot graphics cards, the PC case must have enough space to prevent interference. Therefore, the space is made to be trimmed down for miniaturization, but due to the specifications, it becomes unused space. The ROG Crosshair VIII Impact can take advantage of this unused space to further enhance the performance of a space-saving PC.

Calculated Cooling Design
