Description

With this build, I hoped to bring some of the open frame design to a more familiar, almost dual-chamber layout.

Moving the radiator further back with a larger bracket allowed for more stability. The power supply also ends up playing a role in the overall stability of the case by being located at the bottom, behind the motherboard tray.

The RTX 5090 FE sits on a shroud built specifically for it, matching its geometry. Allowing it to be seamlessly integrated whilst providing support against sagging and ample breathing room. Furthermore, this shroud acts as the base upon which every other part of the case is attached.

The original plan had the Tryx Panorama SE tubes following the top of the case. The version of the AIO I have has the tubes coming from the bottom, which leaves too little length for that purpose.

I chose to build the case around a 240mm radiator. After spending a week trying to make a 360mm work, it always looked out of place with the rest of the build. Fortunately, Tryx offers a 240mm version of the Panorama SE. A 360mm rad could still be attached to the case.

A couple of updates are planned for a future revision. The first being a power button… wake on lan, or a screw driver is currently required to boot the computer. The second is a better way to attach the GPU.

*The photos from the real build show slightly outdated geometry (a couple of chamfers/fillets missing, one of the holes at the top of the case was removed). I was still refining the case before uploading it here, but I ran out of time to re-print it …

@ali_ee

this is such a beatiful concept. congrats! I will try to remix this to my own hardware (4090FE and 280 AIO) but let's see if my design skills developed enough :) thanks for the step files.

@TheMediumAlmond

I would love to see what you will be able to do with a 4090FE! Don’t hesitate to message me if you need more files!

@ali_ee

Replying to @TheMediumAlmond :

I imported your step files to Fusion to have a quick look but couldn't find a very reliable 4090 FE cad file yet. Did you design this in Fusion as well? If so, the fusion file would be a great help.

@TheMediumAlmond

Replying to @ali_ee :

Unfortunately I use shapr3d, I could re export the files in another format

@NewVisions

I would love this for a full ATX mobo

@kalfaxius

same.

This is easily the best case I've seen for a compact build like this. I have a 5070 FE. Any way you could modify the GPU part to fit that? I need this case ASAP lol. It's beautiful.

@TheMediumAlmond

I’m currently working on an updated version but unfortunately I do not have a lot of time between work and family. Im trying to implement a more universal GPU option that matches the original vision

thanks for the reply! I greatly appreciate, I can't wait to see your work!

@kdesign

Great design. I would print immediately. Please expand the design for other graphics cards 👌🏻

how would PETG-CF work with this build?

The designer has replied

@TheMediumAlmond

Petg CF would be completely fine, surface temperature of a 5090 FE would not be high enough to deform the parts. The initial test prints I did where in PLA and I had no issues during a 30min furmark stress test. I recommend using ABS, ASA, or a PC blend just in case but it should be fine.

I have been looking for a great ITX Open Build for my 5090 FE and this looks absolutely amazing! I can't wait to print it and thank you so much for your time and hard work!

Fantastic. Can't wait to try it

I think the idea is great

Can we get a ATX size for this with 360mm aio support?

you should post a list of all the components you used on your pc
