A tidy home for a Micro-ATX build
The PRO FORGE M050A is a steel-framed Micro-ATX case aimed at first gaming builds and budget to mid-range systems. It takes Micro-ATX and Mini-ITX boards with a standard ATX power supply, and ships with four 120mm Auto RGB fans that default to a rainbow effect, so the system has airflow and lighting without buying extra fans. A 3mm tempered-glass side panel shows off the interior, while top and bottom dust filters keep cleaning simple. Front I/O covers two USB Type-A ports, one USB 5Gbps Type-A port, separate audio and mic jacks, and an LED on/off button.
Limits worth knowing
This is not an ATX case, so full-size ATX motherboards will not fit. Graphics cards are limited to 300mm, which rules out some of the longest triple-fan cards, so check your card's length first. Liquid cooling tops out at a 240mm radiator in the roof plus 120mm at the rear; there is no 360mm option. The Auto RGB fans run a default rainbow effect, so if you want lighting matched to your motherboard software, confirm compatibility before buying. There is no USB Type-C port on the front panel, and storage is two 2.5″ mounts plus two 2.5″/3.5″ combo trays.
FEATURES:
- Four pre-installed 120mm Auto RGB fans with a default rainbow effect
- 3mm tempered-glass side panel
- Top and bottom dust filters that protect internal components
- Tool-free design for quick component installation and removal

Questions
Before you buy
Will my graphics card fit in this case?
It takes cards up to 300mm long. Every graphics card we list shows its length on the Specifications tab, so compare the two numbers and leave a few millimetres for the power connectors. Front-mounted radiators and fans usually eat into that clearance - the case manual will say by how much.
What CPU cooler will fit?
Air coolers up to 160mm tall, and liquid cooler radiators of 120mm, 240mmmm. Cooler height is measured from the motherboard surface to the top of the heatsink, and it is the dimension that most often catches people out with a side panel that will not close.
Which motherboards does it take?
It accepts Micro-ATX, Mini-ITX boards. A case always takes its own size and anything smaller, so there is no harm in fitting a compact board in a larger case beyond a little wasted space.
Is it in stock, and when will it ship?
This one is out of stock at the moment. Stock does come back in - WhatsApp us on 079 491 0181 with the model and we will tell you what the supplier is showing and let you know when it lands, rather than leaving you to keep checking the page.
What does delivery cost, and how long does it take?
We deliver by courier anywhere in South Africa, and delivery is R180 on orders under R2 500 and free on orders of R2 500 or more. It takes 1-3 working days to Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and areas within 100km of them, and 2-4 working days to areas more than 100km from a major centre, counted from the day the order is dispatched. Need it sooner? Express delivery is 1-2 working days for R210, or R150 on orders of R2 500 or more - choose it at checkout. We do not ship outside South Africa.
Can I collect instead of having it delivered?
Yes. Collection is from 11 Voortrekker Avenue, Edenvale, Gauteng, by arrangement - message us first so we can have the order picked and waiting. We are open 09:00 to 16:30, Monday to Friday.
What warranty does it carry, and how do I claim?
The warranty period for this product is listed at the end of the Specifications section above. Claims go through us, not the manufacturer - contact us with your order number and a description of the fault and we will handle it from there. Separately from any warranty, the Consumer Protection Act gives you six months from delivery to return goods that are defective, unsafe or not fit for their intended purpose.
What if I change my mind?
You have 14 days from delivery to change your mind - longer than the seven days the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act requires. The item needs to be unused and in its original packaging, and we pay the return shipping. Refunds go back to the payment method you used, within 30 days of the return reaching us.
How can I pay?
Payments are processed by Stitch. At the last step of checkout you are taken to Stitch’s secure page to pay, and brought back here once it is done. Your card details are entered on Stitch’s secure, PCI-compliant page and never touch our systems.
