This is my attempt at making a super-minimal enclosure for a mini-ITX-based PC. I was inspired by the 2nd-gen Ryzen APUs, which offer excellent multi-core CPUs with surprisingly powerful built-in GPUs. In conjunction with a tiny M.2 SSD, they pack a lot of punch in a small space! I tried to be true to this in my design, making it as compact as possible without sacrificing power or convenience.
Frambox includes separate models for each side, which incorporate a locking system that holds them together with just one 60mm screw in each corner. In order to keep the system lookng as clean as possible, the top lid just snaps on. The base includes little pegs to aid in cable management. Ventilation is provided by the exposed CPU cooler; I know it is not safe for small fingers but was too cool not to do.
The case should be able to accomodate other mini-ITX motherboards, but depending on its configuration you might need to move or delete some of the base's cable-management pegs, as they were designed to fit around the M.2 SSD which mounts on the bottom of the MSI motherboard I used. The top cutout for the cooler should be fairly easy to move in Fusion 360, as I dimensioned all the relevant features.
