Integrating my PC into my desk

[KasperNS]

Hey everyone,

 

So I'm getting sort of tired of my PC taking up so much space on my desk, and of looking at all the cables coming out the back of it, so last friday I decided to start 3d modeling a case. However I realized that because I have an ATX board, it won't get as small as I want it to. Therefore I decided to try and integrate all my parts into my desk, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do it optimally.

here is a picture of how my desk looks. And below is a picture of the back, modeled in Sketchup.

The hole in the table is one I made to route my cable, so it is already there and cannot be removed. Otherwise I am completely open for ideas on how to make this work. Even if you have an idea that's completely far fetched, tell me, it may lead to some other idea  Please, I really need some inspiration on this, and it would make my desk so awesome. Some additional information:

 

I got an Asus Z97-Pro Gamer mobo. With it I have a 4690k with an NZXT Kraken X61 on it, which is the big radiator you see in the 3D model.

 

I also have an R9 390 with a Kraken G10 and a Kraken X41, which is the small radiator you see in the 3D model.

 

I also have 2 2.5" hard drives, and 1 3.5" harddrive I need to mount. I've found these that I'm planning to mount them with: https://www.amazon.co.uk/SEDNA-Hard-Disk-Rubber-Stand/dp/B00LOH0AQW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1486764284&sr=8-1&keywords=hard+drive+cage

 

I also had an extra NZXT Noctis 450 lying around, which I can salvage for parts, so you can keep that in mind.

 

Here is a link to download the Sketchup file, if anyone uses the program and wants to play around with it: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxNhcw759LWqOW9DdmxobHltbzA/view?usp=sharing

I might play arround withthe shetchup file later today. Btw you have these 3 elevated pieces on your desk for monitors i assume, can't you close the open sides of the area beneath them off wil wood or acrylic and mount all the hardware in there?

 

Idk if theyre big enough, havent opened rhe shetchup file yet as im not home atm

Hi, thanks for wanting to help, that's really great, however my dad and I have figured out how we're going to mount it. Buy thanks anyway

Hey, looks pretty damn nice, you going to do a build log?
