NZXT just dropped the H2 Flow, a brand-new small form factor case—and I went hands-on to build a Mini-ITX 1440p gaming PC inside it.

In this build, I’m pairing an Intel Core Ultra 7 265K (20C/20T) with the ROG Strix B860-I Gaming WiFi, cooling it with the NZXT Kraken Elite 280 RGB (LCD display + CAM customization), and dropping in the Radeon RX 9070 XT 16GB (ASUS Prime) to see what kind of real-world 1440p performance we can get.
