I am building in a phanteks enthoo pro (full size). I would like to keep both HDD cages, and am left with a roughly 6"x6" square above where I might put an optical drive if I cared to. Since the front of the case at the top is closed, I am completely lost for ideas of what I could even put up there since I have plenty of room for everything else...


Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!! I am open to aesthetic or performance/cooling options!

FYI: Your previous thread was identical to this one, it got deleted since we don't allow duplicates and it was in a wrong subforum anyway.

How difficult would it be to mod the case a bit and add a raspberry pi with a display of the current CPU, GPU, and internal temps of the PC? (or maybe just a cool looking visual?)

So your looking for something to put in the optical drive area? There are a lot of cool things you could buy, like a Fan Hub Controller. Here are some items from newegg:

I actually have a fan hub controller that is on the back of the case. Otherwise, great idea. I also believe I'll have some kind of rbg control with my motherboard (B450 gaming plus) but am honestly a complete noob at RGB. In fact, I wanted to set it up as subtle as possible.
