This is my current project, the HTPC One. It's designed for Ryzen APUs and the HDPlex 160.
It uses a C8 connector (c14 is too tall). PEMSERTS are used for the motherboard and holding the side panel on. It will use (If I get enough support to go into production) @Josh | NFC's machined power switch.
I've currently stopped doing renders for each update, as they take to much time, and now I'm using autodesk viewer; you can see the latest model HERE.
Thank you for your support-

I have spent some time with this design, and hope the feedback from this will help me make this a production case. Anyways, I’m rather proud of my creation, so, I would like to present:
The HTPC One- srry HTC, cheap shot
I designed this for the Ryzen G-series CPUs, because their integrated GPUs DESTROY any other integrated option- sorry Intel. Of course, you could use an Intel CPU, but gaming performance is going to be nonexistent. At 3.6L, er sorry, 3.61725L, it is pretty tiny!
Power to the People- erm, oh to the Ryzen & RAM! Designed External Brickless- Yes, I'm promoting a internally bricked case!
There is room in this case for an HDPlex 160W AC-DC unit, and trust me, it provides MORE than enough power. PCPartPicker says that the system below would consume 36W - 129W. That’s out of 160. PLENTY left!
CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 2400G 3.6GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Noctua - NH-L9i 33.8 CFM CPU Cooler
Motherboard: ASRock - X370 Gaming-ITX/ac Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair - Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory
Storage: Crucial - MX300 525GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive
Cable Management- brackets?{[]}
With a special bracket that bolts down, you can manage your CPU and power cables. It routes around the motherboard, and gives your build a clean look, especially if you decide to use the windowed top panel, which I’ll have files for soon.
Solid Construction- firmer is better? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Made with 2mm aluminum, laser cut, the two-piece shell should be durable as all get out, and the powder coat offers durability and style.
Conclusion- Why do all good things come to an end?
Actually, they might not! With the feedback from this concept, which will always be a concept (for this thread), I will- TAKE ALL THE DATA I GATHERS AND SMOOSH IT TOGETHER WITH THIS CASE AND MOLD IT INTO AN ACTUAL PRODUCTION CASE!
UPDATE/REVISIONS:
Updated to rev 1.1: https://smallformfactor.net/forum/threads/3-5l-htpc-case-made-for-ryzen.7180/#post-92871
Thanks, Windfall
Another edit: Should I make 80mm fan mounts?
Edit: Images need work on this site methinks.
