    Concept 17.5L modular case with 2*240mm radiator support and full side window

    Thank you! The case actually has a smaller desk footprint compared to an M1, it is just taller. And the component layout makes cable management, building and running the loop extremely easy even for an inexperienced builder imho. Maybe some bigger manufacturers develop on this layout idea and...

    Concept 17.5L modular case with 2*240mm radiator support and full side window

    The inverted layout idea seems really nice! When I have some new free time I'll definitely try the challenge to redesign everything to improve the current design and if possible accomodate the left-side configuration. Thank you for the good idea! :)

    Concept 17.5L modular case with 2*240mm radiator support and full side window

    Update: PC build complete! The build inside the case is complete! Despite the small overall volume of 17,2 L including feet and the pci-e support (H38 x L33,5 x W13,5 cm) there is a lot of space inside for cable management and watercooling runs. The 2x240mm radiators are mounted with the fans...

    Concept 17.5L modular case with 2*240mm radiator support and full side window

    Thank you! The design was made exactly for that reason, ample watercooling capability with all the components visible. At the moment I do not have plans for a production run unfortunately. The main issue for me is with the external components, so all the things that I can not have made by the...

    Concept 17.5L modular case with 2*240mm radiator support and full side window

    Update: Metal pieces cut and bent! This week the laser cut pieces came from the factory. After checking that everything was right, they were bent in a CNC brake machine. The measurements were pretty much perfect, and everything seems to align properly in a test fit using the alignment...
