My shipment was for the mainboard only, so I used a different mini-ITX case to fit the hardware inside. First warning here, the way things are arranged in the Framework Desktop’s own case may different from what you expect from a regular PC. For example, The Framework Desktop case expects the PSU to be very close to the top of the mainboard, while my Mini-ITX case expects it below. So… the PSU did not fit where it should. I have fixed this with extension cables, but this may be one of the few surprises you run into if you are not careful with the case you choose.

I know this is standard course for building a PC, but I'm just sick of dealing with this kind of crap. I'm sure it's a nice way to get things cheaper, but I don't really want the headache.
