Prototype jottwehh 3.99l

Love the case.
Would it help if you put the power on the top, the fans on the botton and the middle of the mother board and gpu a slim disc drive?

Not finished yet, but seems like the concept will work.
Thanks again for your feedback! Much appreciate that!
the Redux does NOT fit on GPU with side panels on. It was just for testing... In general a 180mm GPU should fit.
I think I will redesign this one, so max GPU is 175mm but add a little bit in weight, so a L9i + redux will fit.
keeping 3.99L is the main target.
The other Project I'm working on is a 4.99L Case with:
GPU up to 227mm (new 1080ti)
460W total (HDplex 300W + 160W AC-DC & Dynamo + Dynamo mini)
CPU Cooler up to 50mm
I'm working on a 2D 1.5mm aluminum panel design. When I finished the setup I will order them.
Its just a EVGA 960. (i don't need more at the moment) Should have take the redox off...

too much about 80€ incl. shipping (germany) @shapeways; SLS printing. Yeah the hole frame is one piece.

produce: no
I wanted to upload the STL here, but there are a few mistakes in construction that have to be fixed before it can be used/printed.
Unfortunately i didnt found the time to fix them yet, but once i do, i will upload it.

Isn't c7 pretty much as high as l9i +redid? If so it won't fit. Maybe 45mm is max.
But other than that I wouldn't really be too hyped about that case. It doesn't deserve more than a prototype status and probably will never be more.
And to be honest : since I've seen the new 650w flex atx PSUs( https://smallformfactor.net/news/flexatx-computex-2017-roundup) I think going for @sergiiua s 3.99l flex atx case is the way to go.
Another reason against my design is the incompatibility to the new 400W HDPLEX and the fact that you'll have to solder your cables.

I'm not looking for a flex PSU though. My system can run perfectly fine with 400W. That's why I'm just trying to find a case that has more space for cooling and less space for a PSU. I'd be fine with a G-Unique. And since this case is only a frame, It could easily be modified to anyone's needs since it is 3D-printable.
With these dimensions a decently sized FDM printer could print this design as well. Would require a LOT of support material, but usually 45° overhangs can be printed without support, so maybe it could actually be oriented in such a way that minimal support structure is required. Then print with 100% infill and it could actually be quite stable.
I might have to try this when I receive my printer.
