    Completed SFFtime presents: N-ATX - 14 L case with ATX mbo and psu, 4-slot gpu and 360mm rad support!

    Absolutely cannot wait to get my hands on this case. I think we were chatting a bit on r/sffpc and you directed me over to r/mffpc. I've been building in my Lian Li PC-05s for years now and I feel like I can get a similar layout with the N-ATX at a much smaller footprint. Looks like I could run...

    Lian Li PC-05s Custom Loop

    No space for it back there with the pump and res! In fact they barely fit, so the back panel is sort of bulging out a little bit, and the MCP35x-2 doesn't like being squished - it makes it pretty noisy. I'll probably need to dremel the tray that separated the front and the back and cut it out...

    Lian Li PC-05s Custom Loop

    This build took me longer than I'd like to even admit, but I'm happy to finally show it off in its mostly complete state! It started out with a Swiftech H220-x loop, but there were too many issues with the used unit I bought and I had to ditch it. Eventually I went full custom, with a Swiftech...

    CPU + GPU on 240mm AIO?

    Hi All, I've been drooling over the Lian LI PC-05s for a long, long time now. I've been waiting forever for anything to come out of this community that is truly mini ITX, liquid cooling support, and a nice window to show off a vertical GPU. It looks like Dan's next project may accomplish this...

    Completed Circle Pro - Solid Alu CNCed mini-itx case - 240mm liquid cooling

    Will there be any room in the case for 3.5" HDD's?

    Concept A 10L watercooling mini tower case

    This is awesome! The place I work has a really high end 3D printer so I'm planning on printing a lot of the parts to reduce how much aluminum I have to order and custom cut. I'll share my design when its ready! Looks like I'll need a custom support bracket for the PSU, and I'm thinking 3D...

    Prototype Xolid 13: clear side panel and extensive compatibility (Update in first post)

    This is super cool! I love this concept, I've actually been toying around with a design for weeks that is pretty similar. Yours is much better executed, as I was hoping to do mine as a 1-off so I need to rely on designing around easily constructed parts (aluminum square tubing). It's funny you...

    Concept A 10L watercooling mini tower case

    This looks great! looks like we pulled together a pretty similar design, I'll share mine here if you don't mind. I haven't actually pulled the trigger on ordering anything in hopes I could find a case available online someday soon. Probably won't happen though, it's hard to find a truly small...

    I want to replace my SG13 with something...?

    All of the models in the warehouse are great, but actually drawing out the frame in sketchup seems like a total crapfest VS 3DS Max. But yeah it doesn't look like it from that angle but the SFX PSU model I got had the cables coming out of it built in, so there's enough room for them +it's an...

    I want to replace my SG13 with something...?

    Awesome - thanks for the advice! There probably isn't anything I have to 3D Print anyway actually, but do you think Sketchup is still bad for planning out a case? I'm basically just stealing the Lian-Li PC-06SX design and making it more compact (~12 liters).

    I want to replace my SG13 with something...?

    Yeah I'm looking at that now, I actually do really like it, it's basically what I'm looking for, although at 27.5L it's pretty big. I just downloaded sketchup...thinking about doing a 1-off custom project. I've got access to a $10k 3D printer anyway

    Production case SX1 6.8L / SX2 7.5L by Custom_MOD

    Do you have any photos of what that looks like? I can't find any of the 9.5L or the 8.9L

    I want to replace my SG13 with something...?

    Damn that is absolutely nuts, awesome build. I'm not really interested in spending the $ on a sick custom loop for my 1080 though lol. Looks like a few hundred bucks in WC parts there, plus the cost of the NCase

    I want to replace my SG13 with something...?

    Oh man, that project sidearm looks absolutely perfect. I want it now lol Compact Splash looks cool too, guess it's not available for sale anywhere anymore. And yeah I would totally mod the NCase, but it seems like unless you watercool the GPU to fit a 240mm AIO under it, you can only put one...

    I want to replace my SG13 with something...?

    This one looks so nice, but from the one build I found using it, they had to heavily modify it even to just fit one 120mm AIO. This looks pretty awesome and I don't necessarily mind an acrylic side window, but it's 30L big even for an mATX case.
