The Stealth Evolution: Jonsplus i100 Pro Black
In the world of high-end PC cases, the “Obsidian Black” aesthetic is a timeless classic. The Jonsplus i100 Pro in Black takes this look to a professional level, using a 120#–150# sandblasting process on its 3.0mm aluminum-magnesium alloy panels. This results in a texture that is incredibly smooth to the touch and resistant to glare. While many ITX cases feel like compromises, the Jonsplus i100 Pro feels like an upgrade, offering more flexibility than most mid-sized towers while maintaining a footprint that is significantly more desk-friendly.
Modular Genius: One Case, Three Visions
The core strength of the Jonsplus i100 Pro is its modular internal structure. Jonsplus designed this chassis with 35 individual precision parts that allow you to rebuild the interior to suit your specific hardware:
-
Vertical GPU Mode (Sandwich): By using the included PCIe riser cable, you can showcase your graphics card right against the glass. This is a spectacular way to highlight high-end GPUs like the RTX 40-series while keeping the CPU thermally isolated.
-
Horizontal GPU Mode (Air-Cooling King): In this configuration, the Jonsplus i100 Pro can house CPU air coolers up to 166mm tall—fitting legendary coolers like the Noctua NH-D15 that are usually impossible to fit in ITX builds.
-
Horizontal GPU Mode (Liquid Cooling): Optimized for those using a 360mm AIO, providing a clean, traditional look with massive radiator overhead.
Premium Materials and Sophisticated Glass
The black edition of the Jonsplus i100 Pro features specialized tempered glass with a 29.3% light transmittance rating. This is significantly darker than standard glass, designed specifically to “soften” the harshness of internal RGB strips. The result is a spectacular, moody aesthetic where only the most vibrant highlights of your build shine through. The front I/O is equally premium, featuring a hair-line brushed aluminum decorative panel and a modern USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C port for 10Gbps data speeds.
Extreme Cooling for Enthusiast Hardware
Thermal management in the Jonsplus i100 Pro is handled by a vertical airflow design. By drawing cool air from the large filtered base and exhausting it through the magnetic mesh top, the case creates a natural chimney effect.
-
Radiator Support: This is one of the few ITX cases that natively supports a 360mm radiator in the top mount.
-
Fan Flexibility: You can install up to six 120mm fans or four 140mm fans, ensuring that even a 600W system stays spectacularly cool under heavy load.
-
Dust Filtration: Every intake—top, bottom, and rear—is protected by a 380μm fine nylon filter, keeping your internal components pristine.
Breaking the ITX Hardware Barriers
The Jonsplus i100 Pro was built to house “big” hardware.
-
Full-Sized GPUs: It accommodates cards up to 373mm in length (345mm if the SSD cage is installed), allowing for even the largest triple-fan flagship GPUs.
-
PSU Versatility: Unlike cases that lock you into expensive SFX units, the Jonsplus i100 Pro supports full-sized ATX power supplies (up to 175mm in vertical mode), giving you more budget flexibility for high-wattage builds.
-
Storage Capacity: The case supports a versatile array of drives, including one 3.5″ HDD and two 2.5″ SSDs, making it a spectacular choice for a compact creative workstation.
A Builder-Focused Experience
Building in the Jonsplus i100 Pro is a premium experience. The top cover is tool-free and magnetic, featuring a soft nylon handle for easy access. All panels are CNC-milled and chamfered to ensure smooth edges, a level of detail that speaks to Jonsplus’s boutique craftsmanship. While cable management in any ITX case requires patience, the Jonsplus i100 Pro provides more internal volume (25.9L) than most “true” SFF cases, making it a spectacularly forgiving chassis for first-time ITX builders.
Final Verdict
The Jonsplus i100 Pro in Black is the ultimate expression of the “stealth flagship.” It offers the uncompromising performance of a full tower with the sophisticated, space-saving design of an ITX masterpiece. Whether you are building a silent office workstation or a high-refresh-rate gaming monster, the Jonsplus i100 Pro provides the modularity and cooling potential to make your vision a reality. It is, quite simply, the most versatile black Mini-ITX case available today.
