Altas Projects

Wanted to show off my latest PC build.  Hopefully this is the correct place to do this. 
 
It's inside a 1940's tube radio chassis. The guts are from a gaming laptop. 
 
I've got a full build video here if you want all the details:

I was inspired by the LTT video of a water cooled laptop... wanted to try it for myself. 
 
It's quite loud, but the GPU temps are 7-10 degrees lower with it on. 
 
I have a build & results video here: 
 
 

Hi, I thought you guys might like my concrete SFF case.
 
If this isn't the correct location for a post like this just LMK and I'll move it. 
 
I have really liked the "tower" looking PC cases, and have done a few custom 3D printed ones in the past. I still wanted to fully commit to the tower look, so decided to build a form out of whiteboard sheet and cast a case out of concrete. I had an old thinkstation that wasn't being used much, so I moved that to this custom enclosure.
 

 
For the casting process, I have a build video here:

This is my first PC build, and I decided to try something different. 
 
This was an experiment to see how realistic it was to pull of the fans from the power supply and my 1050ti, and to use the case fans instead. I placed two case fans between the power supply and the graphics card heat, which seems to work alright. For the general shape, I was inspired by the Evolv Shift series, and went for that "mini tower" look. The case is 3D printed with hand-cut acrylic front and back plates. Fit an finish could be [lots] better, but I wanted to see if the configuration worked before jumping right to metal. 
 
Build video: https://youtu.be/fjSh6rmv5Es
Components: 
Ryzen 5 2600
ASUS ROG Strix X470-I
MSI GTX 1050 TI
CRYORIG C7
SAMSUNG 970 EVO M.2 2280 250GB PCIe 
G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 32GB
ARCTIC 80mm Case Fans
Power Supply Upgrade for 400W watt Dell Vostro 200(Slim)
 
Thermals outside of case after 20 mins of RealBench stress test: 
CPU Maximum Temp: 67c
GPU Maximum Temp: 59c
Thermals once inside the case: 
CPU Maximum Temp: 78c
GPU Maximum Temp: 77c
 
...this design probably wouldn't work for more powerful components, but seems to be alright for my use.  Air comes in from the back and blows up through the top, but if I needed to cool things down I could add ventilation holes to the sides as well.

Now that it's assembled I only run it with the cover on.  No chance of contacting any of the parts within the PSU - it's enclosed. 
 
Do you believe this is still dangerous given that? 

I'm aware to stay far and clear of the PSU.  As assembled, it's not possible to touch the PSU.
