@@RngmonsterX Nice. if you extend the width by 120mm you will be able to fit one under the I/O shield/PCIE slots (I can fir a 240 in the space there, you can see the cut out in the last few shots). not sure where you would fit the other one. would be very interested when you get it finished. Can you send me some pics? Good luck

That’s a damn fine homemade test bench!! I was looking at some online with a view to maybe getting hold of one. The Praxis Wetbench caught my eye, but the price made those same eyes water!!! Yours looks at lot like it at a fraction of the cost (providing you have an old case and the know how!). Thanks to this video, I now have the know how, will be keeping an eye out for a cheap old case!! Can’t wait to see your next project, that mobo looks VERY nice!!!

Thanks a lot for your comment, but I beg to differ as I‘ve seen far too much videos, where people build their mainboard and hardware components on the Packaging carton of the manufacturer or even just on their table. Maybe it is because they don‘t know something like PC testbenches exist, maybe because they are stingy and miserly???

I will be following your very well made guide and build my own. The only negative part is leaving the rather sharp edges at the front and top. With a bit af plastic tubing cut down the length and fitted over the sharp edges would have sorted them out and in black would have looked quite nice as well. But i did enjoy the vid. Well done.
@KNTech4 жыл бұрын
HI Jeremy, thanks for the comment. you're right, plastic tubes would cover the edges, i did look at that, but didn't like the look of it, so i sanded the edges down so they were smooth. please upload some pics when you make yours, would love to see it.

Oi! I've an original NES-001 that someone's given me. They want the original case for an art project and the unit itself supposedly is inoperative. I've been looking for good resources to A) make a custom box, not unlike your test bench and B) clean and check the board and fix the component parts to have it working in its custom case. No small order, but something with kind of a heavy duty test appearance would be perfect.

I've always used an empty pizza box for a test bench.Takes me zero seconds to make and zero dollars to buy. For an open air case, I'll do this same thing to a midtower but take off the top panel and the front panel and discard, take out and discard the drive bays, and leave the back panel to hold the cards and power supply, and leave the bottom to hold the whole thing up on a desk and rest freeballing drives and cable on. So the whol thing looks like an L from the side with the motherboard facing you on the desk. The main downside for of an open case design is fan noise, but you're going to have that no matter what so I've gotten use to it. It's just more pronounced to me because I have the northbridge and cpu fans pointed right at me where I'm sitting in this orientation. If you don't want to go through all that, just take any midtower and stirp off allt he facia and plastic parts and the side panel and discard them, and remove any floppy bays. You can go further and remove the 5.25 or other drive bays but I usually keep them as I mount my All in one CPU radiator in the 5.25 drive bay area blasting out the front and it fits almost perfect. Just looking at yoru design, I would say most of the 486's and old Pentium desktop box computers fromthe 80's are already there... (i.e. not veritcal midtower cases). I'm talking the real old cases that came after the PC XT and AT. Windows 3.1 era. 386's and 486 desktop comptuers with the motherboard flat ont he table. I've got oceans of those. They often get thrown away.
