A Cage for the Golden Rabbit

Post 00055 | December 7th 2025

I was able to score a good deal for Black Friday: The delightfully named Radeon RX 7900 Golden Rabbit Edition, or GRE for short. It released as a Chinese exclusive last year (the year of the rabbit) but has now been released to the rest of the world. It replaces a GTX 1080 which was a amazing card for its time, but is beginning to show its age. I won't bore you with the details of this - It's a fast GPU. I have already written about how pleased I am with the Radeon drivers. This card is just a generation newer and quite a bit faster, like a rabbit. A fat rabbit.


Carrots - Not even once. The Golden Rabbit next to the GTX 1080 it replaces.

There was no way this chungus was going to fit in my dear WT-01L AIO case; Dolorously, I must move with the time and I retire her (or rather, more likely, be used for an XP build). That's when I remembered the case I had bought on Aliexpress earlier this year. It looked cute and was on offer, so I purchased it without really having a use for it - until now. The "Portable Computer Case Cold Rolled Shell PC Gaming Desktop PC Case 360mm Graphics Card ITX MATX Motherboard ATX Power Supply" has a name designed for search engines. The name isn’t listed anywhere in the article, but Albox P90 is etched into its glass panel, so lets go with that. The case is pretty compact, despite having room for full-sized components which it achieves by using a pretty clever layout. Rather than making a separate compartment for the GPU as you see on a lot of other small cases, it instead has a single room for everything. The ATX power supply is placed in front of the motherboard where it can pull in air from the meshed front. This makes the case long, which gives room for even the longest of graphics cards. The case is wide enough to make space for tall GPUs as well, which of course also makes allows you to cool the CPU with a big heatsink. There are also room for an array of fans and even watercooling if you are that way inclined. Finally, there's a bamboo handle for carrying the PC. The handle is solid, but you screw it into the thin, perforated sheet metal that the case it made from. I'm not sure I'd trust it for longer journeys but for carrying it around for shorter distances every now and then it’s pretty nice.

Of course, no case comes without its downsides. It is strictly one compartment; There is no back panel. This means there is zero space for cable management which makes it challenging to build the fancy-looking build that the window panel invites for. Also, the case is shipping via post from China. I think everybody who has bought anything from China knows how manhandled packages can get in transit. The box the case came in was pretty well padded, but the removable mesh panels had been slightly creased by being placed inside the case with the loose accessory box. The case came mostly assembled, but you need to put the handle on yourself. Also, the PSU and top fan array is mounted via brackets that you need to screw in yourself.

Anyway, it looked like I would be able to fit most if not all of my current components so I decided to try a case swap. Here's my build:

Key takeaways:

  • I used an ITX motherboard, though a micro-ATX would have fit as well.
  • There's a Ryzen 3950X underneath the Thermalright "Peerless Assassin". It's the 120mm variant of the cooler.
  • The RX 7900 GRE fits without any issue. There's even room to spare room in all directions if graphics cards keep growing.
  • My power supply looked very out of place in the case, being the only black component visible. I wasn't going to buy a new PSU for colour coordination; Instead I lined it with some white contact paper.
  • I designed and printed a little bracket to go between the motherboard and PSU to hide the worst of the cable clutter.
  • I got some RGB fans for extra dazzle. This did not make it any easier to manage cables. In the end I ended up using the space underneath the bracket for CPU cooler which actually went surprisingly well. That said, I dread the day I have to replace anything inside the case.


Underneath the CPU cooler. As much as I try to clean it up, I still need access to the connectors when I reacttach the CPU fan and its coolers.

This is the first time I have built something in a modern case with the Fractal Design R5 from 2015 coming in as a distant second. It's kind of funny to look at the two and see how PCs have evolved. The Define R5 was made to house lots of SATA devices in all sizes while this rabbit cage doesn't have room for any. The R5 also had lots of sound dampening to keep noise at a minimum, while my new case has holes everywhere for increased airflow. Of course, as we've stopped using hard drives and fans have gotten quieter, all this padding isn't as necessary as it once was. All in all, I am pleased with the result; A cage fit for a Golden Rabbit.
