Boxx Workstation Concept by Steen Winther

Initially I wanted to do a very progressive design, but upon reflection I went for a more conservative approach, because I think it suits your corporate target group best. This is a transitory design phase where the old square and bulky parts are being replaced by smaller, lighter and more discrete components. But we still have to use existing standard components. Design elements: • mATX motherboard. • Water-cooled CPU (potentially also GPU(s)) • 2.5" SSD hard drives - located behind the front panel - replaces mechanical 3.5" drives. Life is too short for mechanical drives. Your clients would almost always have additional network storage anyway. • Huge front vent opening brings air into the case. Fans in PSU, GPUs and CPU cooler moves hot air out through the bottom and the rear of the case. • I discarded the optical drive - an external USB drive can always be used if needed. Makes sense nowadays. • The case is meant for use on a tabletop so USB, audio plugs and power switch are located low. Thanks to 3DGEN for the model USB Female and to Pedro Navarro for his ATX power supply and Frederik for the logo BOXX LOGO Outline :-)
