I can hold it in one hand, just 5liters. 12400F and 3060 GPU

case if anyone wants it: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003508873100.html

the case was surprisingly easy to work in. one flaw i noticed is that the vents are a bit too small but that is fixable.

Why'd you cut all the wires thinking-about-it

I want to do a sffpc next. Mine isn't that big, but I refuse to put it on the floor and it takes too much desk space.

How loud is it?

Edit: I wish they put more ports on the top, at least two would be nice

after undervolting the gpu, its bearable. i think the small vents in this particular case is causing issues. there are similar ones with larger vents.

i would suggest going for something slightly larger like 10l so you can get sfx psu instead of flex atx like in this one.

Yeah, little vents don't help.

That one looks nice too, but I'd rather have a vertical one so the footprint is smaller. I wonder if I could put filters on something like that to keep out dust and animal hair lol...

Your audio cable is not jacked in all the way

Very cool! Do you have more pictures of the inside? I’m having a hard time imagining it all fitting in 5L.

Wow, cool, thanks. That’s insanely compact.
