The short version
SilverStone's ALTA G1M is a Micro-ATX tower with a 90-degree rotated motherboard layout, a small 200 by 307 mm footprint and a 180 mm Air Penetrator fan driving bottom-to-top airflow. It fits 355 mm graphics cards, a 360 mm side radiator and SFX or SFX-L power supplies up to 130 mm. YouTube reviews from Tech That and STS cover its stack-effect design. Standard ATX power supplies do not fit, and the cooler height limit assumes no side fans.

Common questions
Does the ALTA G1M take a standard ATX power supply?
No. SilverStone lists SFX and SFX-L power supplies only, up to 130 mm long, so an ATX unit will not fit.
What is the tallest CPU cooler it fits?
SilverStone lists 159 mm, but that limit applies only when no side fans or radiator are installed.
