Beelink BT7 "Naked" Case

thingiverse

I've successfully modified the Beelink BT7's case to address its cooling issues. The tiny fan provided is insufficient for efficient cooling, often reaching temperatures of up to 90° Celsius (even with the Intel Atom Z8700's junction temperature set at 90°C) and causing system throttling and instability. To resolve this problem, I designed a custom case using my PLA 3D printer, adding an 80x80mm fan for enhanced cooling. Additionally, I integrated a support for a 2.5" drive, such as an SSD. The CPU now maintains a temperature below 75°C on the hottest core after four hours of Prime95 stress testing. The modified system's power consumption is impressive: it draws only 5 watts in idle mode, 8 watts while rendering a 4K/30FPS x264 movie, and 10 watts under maximum stress. To build this custom frame, you'll need to purchase a threaded rod (M4) and divide it into four pieces approximately 8cm long.
