### Disclaimer This project is presented AS IS. I'm not responsible for any damage possibly occuring to your hardware. I'm not a professional, just a dude on the Internet willing to share. --- ### The Name Why "mochi", you say? I like to name my hardware after japanese dishes :). ### The Case This is a compact and minimalistic mini-ITX PC case, aimed to low-profile motherboards. You can customize the panel colors as you wish, to make it unique. The source STEP file is included if you want to remix it. ### Build Notes You'll need: - a mini-itx motherboard, with CPU, RAM, Cooler and NVMe storage - a Pico PSU (the 90W one for my hardware, but YMMV) - a 12V/2.5A power adapter - an ATX power button (12mm wide) - 10 M3 screws & nuts (8mm recommended, to avoid overlaps with the motherboard) - some fine mesh (metal or fabric) for dust filtering on the ventilation holes Due to the small clearance in the rear-lower-right corner (near the I/O shield), you may need a bit of glue to keep the panels aligned. ### Testing During my tests, the system at full load (I5@3.6Ghz CPU, 16Gb RAM) reached a peak temperature of 55°C, with the Noctua fan barely audible. Again, YMMV. --- Have fun !
