that's a really cool raspberry pi case or for a low powered Pentium/ryzen 1200 HTPC.

It's slightly stupid, I mean if you need to buy a case for under $15 then you could get a second hand one better than that! I don't really see the point of this project.

Wow, that is like EXACTLY the kind of case I wanted to find for a mobo like this.  No jokes or satire.  I was having trouble finding an ITX case that didn't include room for a PSU.

OOOOOO YEEEEEEESS

 

*budgeting intensifies*

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

hope you wore a respirator, you definitely don't want to be inhaling Aluminum dust from cutting the case.

Why not have a custom case made to see how you can fit a Linus build in the smallest possible case?
Could even be marketable with the Linus name on it.

Yup, always make sure the Al dust isn't going to be mangling my air ways.

"I'd imagine there's exceptions to this trend - but just going on mine and my acquaintances' purchase history, we've found that budget cards often require you to turn off certain features to get slick performance, even though those technologies are previous gen and should be having a negligible impact" - ace42

As other people have said, this looks pretty awesome for some sort of raspberry pi project.

 

its large enough to cut some holes for buttons, switches, etc.

ive spent the same amount for super tiny boxes that barely give me room to do anything.

the red power button kinda looks like a turret from portal you should make a portal turret build

This cute little guy was in our SFF case round up, probably the easiest way to achieve that

You should start doing second takes when you make mistakes.  It was funny the first couple times, but now it's just more like laziness.  If you look through comments, you'll see I'm not the only one who's tired of it.

Make sure to quote or tag me (@JoostinOnline) or I won't see your response!

When we couldn't fit what we wanted in the cheapest case, some modding was in order.
 

 

Buy a NH-D15

Unfortunately almost all of them we disassemble a couple days after the video releases so we can use the parts for other builds.  If you've got an angle grinder though this is probably one of the easiest builds we've done to make yourself!

I really want one of these cases, It looks Badass with that massive Heatpipe cooler coming out the top.
