Scratch Build – In Progress Project: OSIDIAS - Carbon fiber and 3D printed SFF (Jan. 2, 2020)

Since a HDPlex 400w AC-DC will be used going forward, I decide to design an external 'case' for it to match. The design should allow for adequate cooling from all sides. What you see below is the final print ready version.

 

Are we modding the power brick now too? Don't go starting a new trend.

 

Sure, why not? Haha, nothing is safe! It it exists, it can be modded.

 

Dayum. Missed this log, nice to see you back at it Craig!

 

Thanks! Yeah, progress is still a little slow, but it is progress just the same.

 

Well, I know from experience dont rush stuff. Just build when you feel like it and enjoy it.

 

Believe me, I know as well. I've always been busy with a project of some kind, even if it wasn't related to computer modding. However, I've now circled back around, and well, here we are!

So, another very small update here. I received my low profile PCIE connectors, and with the help of some PCB board and more 3D printing, I've got a cool idea for a single power connector. I'll see if I can make progress on that this weekend.

 

Neat. Although I've had some single connectors that threatened to rip off the pcb they were so tight.
Also; the gpu maker needs to add a space in the name. I read that as one word and thought, "ermagerd! Geforcertck!"
