3D printed Mini ITX external watercooled case

[CHEEZE-IT]

Specs:

5800x

Gigabyte X570i

3080 strix

3866 CL14 gskill

980 pro 2tb

870 evo 1tb

AX 1600i PSU

Dual 360 rads for external water-cooling with quick disconnects on the tower.

Single 200mm noctua for vrm/memory/other heat

 

End goal for my setup is to get a new desk where i make a cutout for the wires and water cooling loop so that the PC stands up tall and its clean with nothing showing.

Still need to make some adjustments to my printer especially for prints this large. Multiple failed prints and this is the best one i had so far. Small amount of under extrusion on corners and a little layer shift.

Also still need to design a fan shroud And a solution to bring down themps of my 980 pro on the backside of the motherboard.

thats sick af. ive been wondering about 3d printing a case for fun myself, what printer did you use? would i be able to do something similar (but more basic) on a cheaper one like the $95 in an LTT video? Sorry I'm a 3d printing noob lol

I used a creality ender 5. You would be able to use any printer that has the build volume for it. This case measures at 230mmx230mm x 390 at the largest part to print. You could also slice the objects and print them separately if your printer isn't big enough then glue them together afterwards but its not as clean.
