BOXX Compact

grabcad

This futuristic workstation design features a partitioned internal area, with one section housing main hardware and another dedicated to storage and power supply (PSU). Optimal airflow and cooling are achieved by positioning intake fans directly in front of the main hardware. The case incorporates two 5.25" bays for storage and optical media, with options for additional 3.5" HDDs. A vertical, 1U-type PSU fits behind the bays, connected internally via an adaptor. In the main hardware area, room is provided to install a larger water-cooling sink if needed. A detachable front cover protects three 12cm fans, allowing easy cleaning for minimal dust accumulation. The case measures H 393mm W 212mm D 362mm and offers improved component fitting and airflow compared to the BOXX workstation. An alternative internal arrangement places the water-cooling sink in the PSU's position, using quieter ATX PSUs. Many thanks to GrabCAD for providing downloadable parts and ICY DOCK for 3D bay models.
