Custom case build plan.

MicrosoftWord_9000 · January 4, 2021

I'm planning on making a custom case because why not and I want a smaller foot print on my desk. Its about the same size as the Phanteks evolve shift with Phanteks being 170mm x 470mm x 274mm and mine being 172mm x 415mm x 311mm (I honestly forgot about this case until I saw a video about it a week ago). The only things that Phanteks case has that mine doesn't is the two 140mm fans and the 3.5 drive space and probably better build quality. i have the whole case out of 1/8in alum which should be plenty sturdy and only make it about 16lbs. I have it mostly finalized am just wanting to know if anyone sees any flaws in it before I put into production. Also I curious on what you all think the best fan config would be, I was thinking about all exhaust since there will be plenty of room from the bottom for intake.

I'm waiting until the GPU riser comes in so I can take measurements off of it and have some time so I can measure the pump and it should fit behind the GPU and under the PSU. I haven't decided if i should put a glass panel on the front side or a alum panel like the back. There should be plenty of room for expansion in the future for a larger graphics card as it can go the height of the case.

My plan to put it together is too put the motherboard and its components in first then GPU and right rad, left rad and finally the PSU after the plumbing since it is attached to the top panel.

If you want the 3D files let me know I can upload them too.
