Stalled ~7L console-style case concept (and possible future NCASE product)
- Thread starter Necere
- Start date
What's the problem? That'd be freaking amazing!
Imagine it, a xbox one s with a gtx 1080 ti and i7-8700k?
Shelved, at least partly because of the lack of flexATX power supply options on the market. I suppose I could revisit it now that Silverstone has a 350W model out, though w360 is further along with his design now.
Could it be perhaps adapted to a HDPlex based power supply, where you can support ~300W setups?
Can't this project proceed with the Meanwell UHP 350 series..?

There are toes to be avoided for Necere, so I'd say no, unless he sufficiently differentiates the design... to the level the two cases are not directly competing...
Perhaps if i feel like picking it up again. Sorry if that's nebulous answer, but I have to be personally interested in a particular design to want to commit a lot of time and energy into it.
I have brought this up with w360, and he's less concerned with the products he manages competing with eachother as he is in achieving greater sales volume in order to be able get bigger production orders. Because right now, the factories and suppliers he approaches are basically brushing him off when he comes to them with a production inquiry for a part order quantity in the hundreds or low thousands. These guys all want order counts in the tens to hundreds of thousands, which isn't feasible at the current sales volumes.
Problem is they're not really close to being finished, and probably not that useful because of it. It's not uncommon to totally restructure the chassis at least once during development, and this never made it that far.
I'd suggest reading through Aibohphobia's STX160 project log for some of the finer details of sheet metal design. Also check out the guides in the resource section.
noononononononono dont shelf it
i have a design based on the ps4 looks and flex atx the geeeka30 case makers offer custom made modular flex atx PSUs that I think go up to 500-600 watts
for like 70$ thats cheap AF

At the time of that post I was working on something which turned out not to make very much sense, so I am no longer working on it.

Damn, just found this through a search for Console styled cases. Pity it hasn't been made yet.
Will this ever be made? Because, I like this one very much even after all the designs I've seen (including Sentry 2.0).
Love it!Trying a new look, 3 GPU slots.
Do you think you will continue working on it anytime soon?
