Known for its M Series SFF cases, Ncase has announced the P1, a 36-liter workstation chassis designed to house high-density AI hardware and multi-GPU setups.
According to the manufacturer (via ITHome), the P1 is roughly 30% smaller than a typical mid-tower. Still, it handles the hardware density required for local LLM training, AI inference, and multi-GPU rendering. The chassis supports full-size ATX and server-grade SSI-CEB motherboards and provides clearance for multiple 4-slot graphics cards.
To manage sustained thermal demands without the traditional size tradeoffs of compact cases, the enclosure accommodates up to six 180mm fans and supports triple AIO configurations. The manufacturer notes that this layout allows builders to deploy high-VRAM cards with large coolers without encountering clearance issues.
Two distinct front panel configurations will be available to builders. The Honeycomb variant uses 3D hexagonal ventilation machined into the panel to maximise airflow efficiency while maintaining the structural rigidity needed for a full ATX system. Alternatively, the Louvre option features angled slats paired with a mesh filter for clean intake, and a wood variant replaces the filter with a solid wood backing, shifting the intake to the motherboard side panel. The internal layout remains fixed on both versions. The P1 case costs $275 for the standard Louvre model, $315 for the wooden Louvre model, and $355 for the Honeycomb variant.
KitGuru says: Although it's marketed as an AI workstation case, it doesn't stop you from using it for something else.
