DeskNano!

Wheeeeeyyyyy I know this print.
Good work! I've seen some that open one side to let you slap a big air-cooled system into the thing like some kind of hotrod

[quiet dagger]

Thanks!
Yeah, you could totally put a 5950X in there if you really wanted.

[brave path]

Wait can the desk mini actually have enough power delivery to do that?

[quiet dagger]

With a bit of power limiting, I don't see why not. The only issue here is no Vega graphics on that CPU.

Extremely cool, Zen4 APUs when 😏

Congrats on the build of the month!

Smh

And he left

Free advertising... yea no.

If you're not even gonna say "oh I'm more active over here" or "more details posted here" then just posting a link to another server is not a really cool thing to do.

Especially titling it #freeadvertising 🙄

[strange shuttle]

Can you link the case? Googling "msystems" shows me a greek website but I can't find that specific case

It's a file set you pay for then 3d print

Accessories and stuff are on his printables iirc

[heavy jungle]

https://www.printables.com/@msystems/collections/228727

there is a free version in this collection which is essentially the same. on etsy theres a few more face patterns

the switch is a little annoying to make but its a good intro to soldering if thats not in your skill set yet

there's a basic guide here also- https://smallformfactor.net/forum/resources/desknano-x300-diy-guide.203/

I don't believe I broke any rules... But I see friendly community banter is not welcome, my apologies.

[cold pond]

im very confused why you keep leaving and rejoining, but i dont really see how posting another server and then going #freeadvertising qualifies as "friendly community banter".

to me, thats just advertising

[quiet dagger]

As proud SFF.N staff it is my role to bring fellow SFF partakers into the light /s

And me leaving/joining has nothing to do with anything

[cold pond]

well you see uh, i def didn't know that and didn't see it that way mb lmfao

[cold pond]

and yea thats just my personal curiosity

[quiet dagger]

Fair, I recently went through a purge of servers (life reasons) but I occasionally come to check out shared links and such

[cold pond]

but yea we do have some rules about media advertisements etc, but its all good

[quiet dagger]

My bad. Didn't see those but I'll refrain from it moving forward, cheers ✌️

Update to this build, it's now red and lives on the back of my monitor:

[strange shuttle]

what if i dont have a 3d printer?

[cold pond]

Well... you buy one and jump down another rabbit hole

There are some online printing services but I don't trust them

[heavy jungle]

Try going to your local maker space

[vague dome]

since they start at around 200 USD( at least the ones worth your money), its a worthwhile investment. Especially so if you want to really minimize your case volume, as you can pretty much shrink wrap your components in digital form and then just print it to make a case.

[strange shuttle]

gotcha, thanks for all the info!

[vague dome]

word of warning: When I built my own case, it took me 6 months from inception of the idea, through learning CAD, learning what design decisions can be printed, which ones can't, how and where prints shrink and where they will stay true to design, redesigning because of project creep etc etc etc.
If you're willing to scroll through a translated ( because german) forum thread on what it took to get there, you can look here: https://extreme.pcgameshardware.de/threads/custom-case-aus-dem-3d-drucker.630969/
Buuuuut: 3D-Printing is rad, once everything works. And CAD is a really useful skill for pretty much everything you'll do that requires some form of planning.
