cpus What is that orange cover thing that LTT uses for their frequently used CPUs?

[benjy_v1]

I’ve seen in multiple older LTT vids, whenever they are using a CPU they currently already have, they take it out of what looks like a 3D printed case thingmabob. Anyone know what this is and how I would be able to acquire a few for my own? It’s usually always orange. I haven’t seen anything on forums of it either. 

 

My guess is that it’s custom made? If so I’d bet it’s called the “Linus Case” or something lol

Nope, these models are easy to find. Just search "CPU Tray" or "CPU Case" on your STL file repository of choice. Here's example off Printables and Thingiverse.

They're probably just 3D-printed CPU trays. You can find the models online.
