Cheap Mini PC / HTPC Case with mATX

thingiverse

Moin Moin! A good friend asked me for a small, silent and CHEAP pc for his Linux experiments. So i searched for spare parts. I did not want to invest in an expensive mini ITX Mainboard. So i looked for a way to make a small mATX Case. As i would not use an GPU, the PCI Slots can be covered. So i collected following parts: 1. mATX Mainboard for 8 Euro (4th gen Intel). It was that cheap because one memory lane was broken 2. i3 4130 wich i got for free (came with a Mainboard) 3. 8 GB of ram with Headsink for 20 Euro 4. TFX 300 W Powersupply for 14 Euro from ebay 5. 60 GB 2,5 Inch HDD from an old Laptop 6. one 120mm Fan i got from an AIO (which got a nicer fan) 7. Glowing Powerbutton from Aliexpress for 2,5 Euro So you know now the Specs. you will need a mATX Mainboard, an TFX PSU and an 2,5 inch drive as well a Powerbutton. Feel free to asky me anything and comment here! i am happy to help. Please take note that i am a noob at construction or fusion :)
