Monster ITX model S and model M unibody is the evolution of my Monster ITX series, model S was shown first time in other project so I want to create it own thread. Special points in this two models: - Unibody design (Main frame is fabricated from single metal piece). 4mm thick structure. -...

No approved for new one.

One more thing, due very difficult to create new account in [H], this one is shared to my partner, he will do media.

The over hang side is in PCIE slot side so you can install it in any 115X motherboard with chipset heat sink height is lower than 12mm except Asus impact series. The simulation is fairly correct, but it is in idea case with idea air flow, in actual condition if we have good air flow, the result...

Re-up test result for 150W CPU

This Sun Cool is a full copper heat sink TPD 150W, Height 22mm, weight: 744g work with 92mm fan, total 36mm with Noctua 92mm slim fan. This one will be used all our cases in future. Test result in simulation with CPU heat source 110W, air flow 57m3/h (33.5 CFM), ambient temperature 30C: Max...

Look good add logo in front side is better, this's one of best cases with this layout.

How about idea top side motherboard access plate - same with bottom side. I saw many people they cut top plate to install higher cooler.

As I said this case is about 3L so I can use unibody design, from some pieces no much cheaper.

Chamfer for thread is only 0.3mm, chamfer for screw is 1.3mm, chamfer make it to be nicer. thread insert is also available but I think no necessary for 6061 or 7075, Apple did not use thread inserted as well.

Power port near top corner of I/O port, 1cm distance from MB, i's over enough.

Magnets for some one don't like screws, many manufacture they use (jonsbo, lian li) thread in AL, no problem, problem only if you using soft AL like 1012. I don't worry too much about manufacturing this time because vendor I confirm that they can do it with good price. You need to spend a lot of...

See :

This case is not for X99 or X299 ITX due X99 or X299 CPU TDP is almost about 100W, this case for 65W and lower CPU only. I received quotation of 2 vendors for this kind of case, price is good, They know what they need to do. I the future I may buy CNC milling to do. Unibody design like MAC...

See more clearly picture: I know your will said waste material, that why I just use Unibody design for a 3 L case. The price is still good. Bigger case, I use other method.

I use Cutting head for 6 bottom plate.

Please advice me what is impossible points !

Power connector is 8 pin ATX and the size is tested OK. and not custom backplate, just bend GPU plate to be flat :) (may be for me only, for other will use normal way). This is a solid aluminium piece made by CNC milling, I believe you are not familiar CNC milling so you said that.

Main frame:

See this design for ~3L model: Monster ITX S Unibody in my monster ITX series is the a portable case that I may make for my next long business trip (about 6 months) for an other supper amazing project. Monster ITX S Unibody support only M2 SSD, 8 pin ATX for 12V PSU only, all 170mm GPUs...

I think this build with and additional PCI/PCIE slot in CPU side is what you looking for. it'll be smallest if PSU position is in top of main PCIE slot.

Idea here is modifying from flex-ATX PSU with size 150x81.5x40.5mm, it's smaller than high power laptop brick (normal length is more than 200mm). Modification points: - Remove top cover and 40mm fan. - Remove all cables, jump start PSU inboard. - Install modular bracket but only 2x 8pin CPU -...

Adjustable GPU card holder allow you to shift GPU card up to 5mm vertical and 13mm horizontal (use PCIE flex riser ) for any size GPU:

New design for model L, support both SFX (SFX-L as well) and FLEX PSU, No screw in front panel and option slim drive allow you to install front panel like this:

That is a defect ITX set, I buy to test hardware compatibility. Of course, I will make a final one and buy a new ITX set to test, almost important thing was done.

Model L:

They can detach PSU any time for moving. I will consider a budget to buy new ITX set to test, that hurt my budget.

Due hard to edit old thread so today I launch my Monster ITX series in this thread. All models are same type, only dimensions are different, see model M in this thread: https://hardforum.com/threads/tiny-console-itx-case-monster-itx-project.1954645/ Prototype images of model M...

All side images:

20$ for Kit for PSU, and Water cooler.

Update 3 Mar 2018 - Prototype arrived. - Kit for water cooler. - Kit for SFX PSU. - Kit for increasing CPU cooler height. My fabrication method work excellent: See all image : https://flic.kr/s/aHsku2s4jK Some change: Kit for SFX PSU: Kit for increasing CPU cooler height and water cooler...

That is also a solution, but uncertificated and 12V is too hot in connector. I think price for steel version by LegoFab method of this 3L is only about 70$, supper cheap! This is small enough, my design almost support gaming GPU only (1060 and up), this design will be shown detail in other...

It's actually smaller than 3l (312x53x186) due fillet 4 sides. and can be smaller if just use SFX out side and 120mm GPU card height.

Yeah! support all Gigabyte mini series, u can use a couple 2 pin like HDPLEX 160W Nano with sync function or jumping cable, one supply power to motherboard, one supply power to GPU card. Vent hole all size is invisible.

Just put it under table, Brick size even bigger than SFX with lower power consumption. In the future connector should be magnetic type for better looking.

Sorry I can't edit, Size is 312x186x53
