Hello everyone,


I am Simon and I am a mechanical engineer from Germany. I've been building some "Mini PC's" lately, but I wasn't really pleased with it. The cases that I have seen and / or installed were either too big for me or you could only sheet a 2 slot GPU or no AIO ...

For this reason, I decided to develop my own case (of course it's based on the existing cases). I tried to fulfill all my criteria which are:


- as small as possible

- AIO (at least 120mm)

- 3 slot GPU (best for MSI Trio)

- made of aluminium

- Extendable to install a 240 AIO

- Space for 2-3 2.5" and at least a 3.5" HDD

- USB-3 and USB-C on the front

- Made in Germany if possible

- lower price than the competitors


These days I've invited offers to build my first prototype. As you can see there are four versions:


1) Basic unit 8.45l (139 x 184 x 334)



2+3) Basic unit + expansion at the top or at the bottom 11.33l (139 x 244 x 334)



4) Basic unit + 2 expansions 14.1l (139 x 304 x 334)




Here you can see what fits in the case:



What do you think so far?


Greetings Simon
