love those Bulgin switch

the 60mm on top of the CPU heatsink

user posted image



added another piece of acrylic support for the HDD

this plate is the exhaust fan plate which are meant for the rear because there is 60mm fan intake, but no proper exhaust(except for the PSU).
so must suck out the hot air as well.

will stick the 30mm COpal fan onto the plate which is directly below the PSU

so to solve the problem of the blower, had to improvise a bit by using these Copal 30mm fan, very useful and easy to mount (double sided tape settle d), about 3.12cfm already good enough and it's silent.....
the fans are directly soldered onto the 3pin

added an L stand to make it stand upright

this is how the completed casing looks like (empty)

the fans installed at the back

hardware goes in

this is the top cover with the HDD already installed.
double sided tape were added to the side near the fan due to space limitation, the mounts were unable to be implemented on both sides.
so compact until cannot fit in 2.5mm plate

user posted image


this is without the HDD installed....already very compact

in front of the PSU is very tight as well, luckily the fans were able to be added to cool the NB heatsink

user posted image



the 12V EPS cable was long enough, and the rest of the space are occupied by wires

user posted image


after everything was put back together, this is a up and running rig !!

front shot

user posted image


side shot, notice that the 60mm fan does not touch the heatsink but it is very very close to it.

user posted image


the other side shot, with the 4x screws holding the PSU

user posted image



back shot, not even have enough space to put in a read panel, as it will be too thin and serve no purpose (easy to break)

user posted image


the top cover couldnt cover properly because the PSU was too heavy, making the cover bent downwards.

pretty nasty setup at the back there

my mobo's form factor is micro ATX, 25*25cm

the super small form factor is mini ITX, 17*17cm

so this is the smallest i could go using this motherboard
