Fractal Terra
10 litres
A narrow, furniture-friendly Mini-ITX gaming PC with strict cooler and GPU planning.
Small form factor gaming PC Sheffield
Serious power. Tiny footprint.
Your full-tower PC doesn't fit your flat, halls, living room or life. Blackwell's Builds builds Mini-ITX gaming PCs that fit the space, the noise limit and the games you actually play.
Careful component selection keeps frame rates high while the case stays easy to move between desks and LAN events.

01 / Case planning
Choosing the right SFF case
Case volume sets the rules. GPU length, cooler height and SFX power supply clearance must be checked before a single part is ordered.
Cooler Master NR200
18 litres
More room for airflow and larger graphics cards, while staying compact beside a desk.
Lian Li Q58
14 litres
A dual-chamber layout for tidy cabling, strong graphics performance and a sharp living-room look.
Dan A4-SFX
7 litres
For buyers who want the smallest possible portable LAN PC and accept tighter thermal limits.
We help you decide before you buy anything.
Send your desk dimensions, monitor resolution and favourite games. We will plan around the space rather than force parts into a case.
02 / Acoustic control
Quiet enough for a shared room
A compact gaming computer has less space to lose heat. We tune the whole system instead of hoping a small fan will fix it.
Our target is under 30dB at idle and around 36dB under load, measured during real gaming sessions.

03 / Portable design
Built to move between desks and LANs
A portable LAN PC needs more than a small case. We check panel strength, cable strain, dust access and the weight you will carry across Sheffield.
- Reinforced panels and corner protection
- Carry-handle options and quick-release access
- Internal SFX or external PSU planning
- Under 5kg possible with the right parts
Small enough to carry. Strong enough to keep using.
04 / Room integration
A gaming PC that belongs in your living room
Horizontal console-style cases such as the Fractal Ridge sit beneath a screen without turning the room into a workstation.
We can plan HDMI 2.1, wireless peripherals, controller-first games and subtle lighting that stays quiet during film night.
