    Curious about jobs in Computer Case Design

    As the title suggests, I am curious about what kind of experience and requirements are usually found when applying to a company such as Caselabs, NZXT, or really any kind of company (Dancases please notice me). I'm 15 years old, and really intrigued by designing cases, and in school we're...

    wow a lot cheaper than I thought. Thanks for the info :) Might try that soon I am still hesitant to mod since the case is a $250 case. If I had some practice and was skilled enough I would.

    I would go into modding if I could... Being 15 years old, I don't really know where to start or how to get the tools I would need, not to mention, money is not unlimited.

    Concept My first case design, Water Cooled

    There is a 280mm Rad there so you wouldnt be able to see the mobo. However, I could just leave the GPU in the MOBO's PCI-E slot and not use a riser at all. That also wouldn't block the mobo. When I was first designing this case I didn't intend it to be water cooled. As you probably know, the...

    Concept My first case design, Water Cooled

    I was wanting to make a custom loop PC and be able to show off the GPU, MOBO, RAM and the loop. which is why I made the top half have a "window" (just a hole in the picture). Basically, a SFF fully custom loop but still being able to show off the internals. I know some people have crammed loops...

    really? I can't imagine that being true. The height of a PSU and ATX Mobo is around 39.1cm which is only 2.9cm off from the total height of the case, and that's not counting any kind of fans on top. I guess some really weird design with the PSU put somewhere else could be smaller, even still, I...

    Sorry, I guess I messed up with writing the dimensions down. I'll fix that.

    Maybe this will help clear things up

    As I said, it's mounded sideways, the PSU's 150-160mm side is sideways with a vent on the BACK of the case the height of the PSU would be the thing restricting the radiator mount. which I've allowed clearance for

    Sorry should have been clearer, the PSU is sideways, not on the side of the case, if you look at the diagram and the cutout for the PSU at the bottom of the case it should be a bit clearer

    Concept My first case design, Water Cooled

    As the title suggests, this is just a concept. This has been a very enjoyable project of mine that I've been working on for some time now. Being 15 and having access to a student version of Autodesk inventor 2017, I decided to make what was originally some sketches into an actual design in...
