The Cutest 3D Printed PC Case Ever!

[@makerunit]

Looks great! I received my own AsRock X300W Barebone kit myself a few weeks ago to build my own tiny printed case soon. I also love your use of the orange fabric up top. Did you try to run it without the fabric? If you did, did you notice any difference in performance with or without it?

[@standupg4m3r]

Hey thanks for checking out my video! I love your channel. With no doubt it would be cooler sans textiles, and people can def run it without. I’ll post a quickie with the results soon. Thanks again.

[@makerunit]

@@standupg4m3r Awesome! Looking forward to the results! 😊

[@afm5785]

Excellent, tasty design! It somewhat reminds me of the Aperture Science enclosures. A 3D printer allows for printing complex, volumetric parts, but few people take advantage of this and stick to flat cases because computer components are made up of flat boards. I've been looking for such a beautiful, volumetric design for a long time

[@standupg4m3r]

@@afm5785 thanks! If you like compound curves, keep your eyes peeled for the next one. ;) Don’t design and 3D print large thin parts this way. #3dprinting #fail kzbin.infoiA09B3Klgcs?feature=share

[@SirSethery]

The shorter, pudgier look, more nicely rounded corners, deeper I/O cutouts, more pronounced fabric, more pronounced slope going to the seam, everything on this new revision does look cuter and overall really nicely designed. I like the dark gray tone for the power button, though I guess orange may look nice too as others are saying. Also it's pretty cool how nicely the USB 3 port contrasts with the orange top. My only worry with having an orange button is if the color doesn't perfectly match the top fabric. I think having a 3rd gray tone will look nicer than having a 2nd orange tone. Really awesome work!

[@standupg4m3r]

Hey thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to provide some substantial and helpful comments! Luckily the power button only takes a few moments to print, so trying out the idea won't be too hard. I'll post a poll with the two colors in use and ask y'all what's best!

Found this on the sff subredit as im currently building a super small 3d printed itx case for my tiny home storage server, these prints are fantastic mate well done. If i would be so bold to say, i bet you would have slightly better temps if you ran no cloth over the top. All in all a fantastic build and have me subbed

[@mandryd]

Looks great! One of the best looking 3d printed cases by far. Great design.

Great update to the original design and most importantly the thermal performance, well done. Heat insert solution looks proper now too

[@standupg4m3r]

Thanks! At the speed I’m pumping these cases out, I’m not surprised of how un optimized the designs are, but felt good to improve on this one.

I know getting hurt while doing DIY tinkering stuff. But this experience helps you build a connection with things you are doing. I don't mean extreme things but like getting pinched, shocked, poked, burned slightly, etc. no severe things. But still i would say stay safe :D

[@d3x7r0]

Love the design. Really cool overall and I second using orange for the power button to match the top mesh. Also: I would suggest adding some mesh to the openings to prevent dust from being sucked into the system (always an issue with negative pressure setups). EDIT: maybe even add a small orange strip separating the bottom half of the case to the top half. Purely for aesthetics this one. Probably overkill on the orange though.

[@standupg4m3r]

Really great suggestions! Thanks so much for watching. :)

[@bangity]

Hello, Please check your STL. either the front bracket or the mainbody is missing the cut out for the front io? I printed and during assembly I can see the whole row of IO ports.

[@standupg4m3r]

It’s labeled as WIP for that reason. I even wrote that in the description where you downloaded the file.

[@bangity]

@@standupg4m3r I Apologize. I took a photo of the front IO and made a 1mm thick piece that glue on the main body and that solved the problem. Let me know if you want me to upload that STL to the post.

​@@standupg4m3r Have you considered thermal throttling the cpu for the sake of acoustics? Im not sure what wattage that thing pulls, but it definitely helps with thermals!

It looks really good I would like to see a "sister case" with a similar design used as an external GPU case That way if you have a small PC like you have, with a Thunderbolt port, you could have a serious gaming PC combination

Cool idea! Do you have an STX motherboard in mind with Thunderbolt?

[@matter509]

have you tested temps without the top orange fabric?

[@standupg4m3r]

Thanks for watching! I believe I did a quick run, and it was a slight improvement over the fabric top. But the main goal was beating out the first design, and only recorded the fabric temps. I’ll have to revisit sometime in the future; it’s already on the shelf as a shell since the new case is dropping very soon!

Love the case! What is the total volume? Also how is the noise level? This design is super sleek and looks like it would scale up really well for a sandwich style case for mITX users with a single fan 170mm-ish GPU. Then just swap to a single 120x14 case fan.

​@@standupg4m3r then why not using a noctua Nh-l9a. I used it in almost all my x300 builds. When noise was not a concern I used the stock amd wraith stealth cooler (needs a bit of work to get it in the case), never used the cooler that came with the x300. Also you should use crucial ballistix 3200mhz cl16 modules. I get 16% improvement in benchmarks with those compared to 3200mhz cl22 kits. Good ryzen ram is hard to find in sodimm...
