Hi, I’m looking to create a Itx case the roughly the size of half an Xbox One S. Intel NUC is the smallest pc with a case ( I think) but I want mine to be the smallest Gaming Pc ever made. I’ve drawn out a sketch of what I’ve planned so far, but I need help on how I’m actually going to create it.

Are you proficient in CADD software? You're essentially asking us to completely R&D your entire case. Thats quite a lot lol.

Trust me - you're a year out (at minimum).

If you want to go SFF, you'll need external brick with an AC-DC internal, m.2 SSD instead of 2.5", and a proprietary motherboard.

The Skull Canyon is 211 x 116 x 28mm. (~0.7L)

Honestly, even extreme SFF cases are lucky if they get sub 2L (With dedicated GPU)

Yeah, I should design it on computer also even though The razor blade stealth and other mini Gaming PCs run on laptop components I was this to be desktop like with dedicated graphics.

Yeah, I thought of that but the whole reason I wanted to do this was because I saw this video where this dude made a picture of what the new Xbox may look like and I thought of if it was even possible.
