Uh, like a box with holes in it.  I was thinking the video would be of a real case with fans, a window, etc.

A couple of suggestions, make a chamber for the psu on the side of the mobo and do a horizontal extension card slot. That'll reduce the size need. But you'll need flexible pci extension cable or custom pci riser card.

Hmmm, I was thinking that... Maybe shrink the PSU cutout to SFX???

You could make an adapter plate to mount sfx on atx cutout iirc. But also consider the wattage needed for your build since high wattage sfx is quite expensive. If you wanna go really small just go with brick psu ( eg, pico psu)

Bricks don't go past 250 watts do they???

They do now, but quite expensive, a brand called hdplex already have 400+ watt in their product lineup. But I've read some ppl already run gtx1080ti on lower pico psu wattage on smallformfactor.net forums.

 

Not much heat produced inside the casing since majority of heat comes fro ac-dc conversion in the brick, while the pico psu only handle dc-dc conversion.

Hnnnm I like that, I was looking for the SFX PSU cutout size... I can get away with just a brick, cool... NES size case is possible...

Those guys on smallformfactor.net already build a system with i7 + gtx1080ti in a smaller volume the the nes, so i think yes you could.

Would be expensive tho. gl with your projects i hope you could build a nice sleeper pc inside a nes case.

Cool, I want 1 with a ODD slot though (slim is fine), plus this seems like it would be a nice to put in https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007C1KPQY/ref=ox_sc_sfl_image_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER... The GPU is a bit low you think???

A slot loading slim odd would be cool imo.

Also maybe you could rise the gpu slot up abit yes, with the fan facing upward you could use the gpu to hide the cable mess and an added benefit of the gpu fan being closer to the top panel for more cooling efficiency if your top panel is perforated.

 Do you have Protocase??
