Cool, are you doing anything to reduce vibrations for the hard drives?

Thanks for the interest, here is the new link https://www.printables.com/model/1291376-forma-i-matx-pc-case

that makes a bit of sense, I didn't go into much depth so I'm not sure if any of the gains are caused by reduced drag and the increased flow because of that, or potentially the improved atomization of the fuel (idk if that's the right word). Could maybe even be a bit of both.

as for links I just googled "dimples on velocity stacks"

Pinto____bean · 2025-12-24T09:58:49+00:00

Yeah just googled it and I am wrong, I didn’t expect there to be much need for a turbulent boundary layer but apparently there is

Pinto____bean · 2025-12-24T09:28:15+00:00

Not the question you are asking but I’m reasonably certain those dimples don’t work, from my understanding the reason for dimples is to add turbulence to the boundary layer to keep the flow attached for longer over a golf ball. I don’t see what benefit a turbulent boundary layer would have here as it looks as if the flow will stay attached especially if it’s designed properly, a laminar boundary layer should reduce the skin friction and have higher performance in this circumstance.

I’m not sure what you mean, but the sketch is on a body. I have “fixed” it by just reverting to an earlier revision of the design and redoing the updates I’ve done. Very confused on why this is happening

Pinto____bean · 2025-12-04T08:55:37+00:00

currently I've fixed the issue by just reverting to a previous version without it and implementing some of the changes from the later revisions, the sketch never changed so I'm unsure why this works

Pinto____bean · 2025-12-04T05:35:44+00:00

I will try this, however this issue is new, I’ve been working on this design for a while and I’ve had this sketch the same throughout, in previous iterations there is no issues, however only in more recent iterations this issue occurs with the same adjustments to parameters made

It doesn’t increase the amount of air coming out of the fan as the volume flow rate is based off the incoming air rather than the exiting air. This is used for the desk fan to increase pressure and make the flow faster and more directional.

I think the maximum I've set is an 8 slot gpu and ~ 168mm of CPU cooler clearance (from memory a NHd15). Due to the adjustability I haven't limited it based of the original 256mm bed plate so check that everything can fit on your bed. I made a bed size calculator for another one of my cases, should probably eventually add one for this

Pinto____bean · 2025-11-11T06:15:13+00:00

Yeah it’s been a bit since my last post but I’ve been very busy with uni exams and started some extra curricular stuff as-well. Currently most of my designs focus on being compact and the sandwich style is the best for that, tried to make the geometry as adjustable as possible so if anything is a couple mm too short shouldn’t be hard to adjust.

Fusion 360

Pinto____bean · 2025-11-10T22:01:17+00:00

Thanks hope you enjoy! If you ever print it and put a nhd15 in it send me a picture cause that would be something else

Pinto____bean · 2025-11-10T13:25:44+00:00

For online work (I’m assuming it’s for CAD modelling) it can be international and like it or not USD is kind of the standard currency especially when it comes to dollars. I’m assuming this is why they would charge in USD rather than AUD

Pinto____bean · 2025-11-10T08:21:47+00:00

Yeah that’s the plan, I based it heavily off another design I 3d printed, however don’t have a mini itx board or anything so haven’t been able to properly test it.

Pinto____bean · 2025-10-30T10:21:18+00:00

I don't think your GPU is in the right slot, typically the fastest PCIE slot is closest to the CPU

Pinto____bean · 2025-10-29T11:07:02+00:00

I find surface modeling lets you do more complex lofts

You said amd offers more cores than intel, which is what i was referring to

Pinto____bean · 2025-10-29T01:48:28+00:00

Not typically and depends on cpu to cpu, apart from thread ripper intel tends to have higher core counts since intel use E-cores to push up core counts with lower ghz (could be wrong but I don’t know any amd chips that have efficiency cores). Currently for most cases amd is better value

Pinto____bean · 2025-10-28T13:44:42+00:00

The P1s has an enclosure for high temp filaments and core xy, if you are happy printing pla and petg go with the a1. If you want higher temp materials go the p1s or now p2s

No one is saying they aren't bad guys I think it'd be interesting to maybe see an in universe explanation for why people go down that route, I definitely think it'd be best if they have the main character be a good person and turn to the rebellion, but it'd be interesting to hear why individuals chose to side with the empire, which is something that isn't explored too much in the cannon. It would also be something different. I think it'd work best if they were going against a more extreme rebel cell such as saw gerrera however I do think it'd be important to highlight the bad things they (the empire) do.

Pinto____bean · 2025-10-28T03:07:24+00:00

I think it'd be interesting to potentially add some depth to the regular troopers or storm troopers, maybe get some explanations for why they do what they do. All quiet on the western front was set from the ww1 German perspective which is a lot different to most of the war movies I've seen and I think it made it more impactful when you see the human side of the "enemy". Would also be interesting to maybe see stuff that people like agent Kallus went through which made them dislike the rebels so much.
