Size doesn't matter when it comes to the Nightblade X2. Despite its mini-ITX form factor, this gaming barebones delivers powerful performance due to the fact that the internal components are well designed and laid out within the chassis.

A useful handle situated at the bottom-front of the Nightblade's mini-ITX case can be used to pick up and carry this lightweight gaming beast around from one LAN-party to the next.

And the level of mobility doesn't just stop there. With help of the rubber covers fitting the metal screws on the backside of the Nightblade, this system can even be stacked up vertically after carrying it around. That way, the panel and connectors on the back remain unharmed when arriving at your next gaming destination.
