Cases by individual order.We accept individual orders for the production of cases and stands. It may take several months to develop and manufacture. We can prepare drawings for serial production or make a ready-made case. How do we work? To get started, send us the TOR (Technical Terms of Reference) to our mail custommodsff@gmail.com. After looking, we will be able to determine the complexity and calculate the cost. What must be specified in the TOR? 1.List the components that you plan to install to the case. For some components, it is enough to specify the format or size (for example, micro ATX 245x200mm) 2.Describe what the case should be: Size, Materials, Paint Color, etc. 3.Attach pictures and diagrams to writing, you can draw them by hand.

Mini cases for two fan video cardsSLM2 5.7L The aluminum model is designed for two fan video cards and an HDPlex 500 GaN power supply. The case can be placed horizontally or vertically using a special stand. SXM2 7.3L This is a tower-type model with a more common SFX format power supply. We make these cases both from aluminum with a steel frame, and exclusively from steel.

PC models without video cards.Many modern processors, both intel and AMD, have integrated graphics, which hop. By assembling a computer without a video card, you save the budget. If you need a computer for modern games, then pay attention to larger cases. SL1 2.1L The Compact Model itself, but the Power Supply Unit is external. This can be a plus if the PC assembled in it hangs behind the monitor. SL2 3.3L та SL2 3.7L Slightly larger models, but already with an internal PSU of flex 1U format. The weight of the assembled PC in such a case is approximately 2 kg. The difference between the models of the location of the power supply unit. In the SL2 3.3L model, the block is located horizontally, due to which it turned out to be thinner. In the SL2 3.7L model, the fuel tank is located vertically. The case is thicker, which makes it possible to install a higher cooler up to 70 mm and a low-profile module in the PCIe connector. SLM1m 2.6L All-aluminum housing for an internal HDplex 250 GaN power supply. If you need a portable PC with an internal power supply, this case is for you.

Models with mini video cards.Extremely light and compact! Exactly, this should be a computer for those who often carry it with them. Of course, the size of the selected model should correspond to future tasks. If this is a low-power PC, for example, for watching YouTube, then the models from the list above will suit you perfectly☝. If the computer is for something bigger, for example, for modern games, then graphics integrated into the CPU will not be enough. It is good that some manufacturers make compact copies of even powerful video cards, for example with RTX4060 video chips. MINI Arrangement of components like "Sandwich". Supply of components from an external power source and a pico PSU converter. SLM1 3.9L The case model is made in a slim format, which can be very convenient during transportation. Also, the body is made entirely of aluminum, which makes it very light. This model is only compatible with Low Profile video cards and HDplex 250 GaN power supplies. FX 4.5L and FX 4.9L A slightly larger model, but already with a flex 1U format power supply unit. The weight of the assembled PC in such a case will be approximately 3-4 kg. The difference between these models is in the design and size of the maximum permissible cooler for the CPU. SXM1 6.3L The difference from FX is compatibility with the more common PSU format - SFX, as well as SFX-L. As a result, more volume and slightly more weight. Do not choose models with windows if you are going on a trip.

Will the video card work worse when connected via a riser?In most of our mini cases, video cards are connected to the motherboard via a riser cable. Not all riser loops are made according to technology and can provide a high-quality signal. As a rule, cheap copies often fail. We offer only proven and reliable riser loops for purchase with our cases.
-
Which cases are compatible with micro ATX and ATX motherboards?Currently, there is only one model - SLM4 10L, which supports micro ATX and ATX motherboards.
-
Can the mini ITX format be considered full-fledged?Modern motherboards of the mini-ITX format have enough power phases, which allows you to install powerful processors such as Intel Core i9 or AMD RYZEN9 on them. Also, some top models of mini-ITX boards support DDR4 RAM up to 64Gb or DDR5 up to 96Gb, which works in two-channel mode. As for the support of the high frequency of the RAM, it is on the mini-ITX boards that they set records for overclocking the RAM. Most video cards of the mini-ITX format are equipped with a regular GPU, as on reference models, and enough power phases for the operation of the video card. However, there is no reserve for overclocking the video card, and the reduced cooling system will not allow them to be overclocked. Almost all mini-ITX boards have built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules for wireless connection of devices and data transfer.
-
Do mini video cards heat up and make noise?For example, the modern Palit StprmX RTX4060ti mini model has a modest cooling system in the form of an aluminum radiator pierced with only four copper evaporation pipes and one 90mm fan. Is this cooling enough? Quite! Temperatures under load are approximately the same as those of larger siblings. The video card controls the speed of the fan itself and at 100% load does not spin it to the maximum, as a result the noise levels are acceptable. Of course, different manufacturers have different cooling systems and, as a result, temperature and noise indicators may differ.
-
Which CPU cooler to choose?We understand that it is not an easy task to choose the right size, cost and efficiency Cooler for mini PC. We try to follow the latest developments in the world of SFF components, including CPU cooling systems. We make video reviews of the most interesting specimens on our YouTube channel. We also created a special TABLE for comparing mini coolers, which we constantly update

Flex ATX 1U power supplies?As in the case of the cooler, choosing a power supply unit for FX and SL2 models is not an easy task. Local stores may not have such a BJ format or single copies at all. In our store you can buy a set of Housing + BJ with shortened cables for ease of assembly. You can also see what models exist and read the specifications in our TABLE. Branded flex ATX motherboards are very reliable because they are designed for servers that work 24/7. Despite their reliability, only single copies of flex BZ can be called quiet. This is related to the field of their use, namely server where the noise level is not so important. Recently, some manufacturers still produce models for personal mini computers. SilverStone FX350-G can be considered the first, although not very quiet, model. And the most successful, both in terms of silence and performance, was the Enhance ENP-7660B - 600W model from OVERTEK.
-
Are all-steel cases stronger?We did not put the cases under the press to set accurately. However, we can assure you that all our cases are quite durable. Steel cases are made of sheet metal with a thickness of at least 1 mm. Aluminum parts from a sheet from 1 to 3 mm, a special alloy containing magnesium. This fairly strong alloy is often used in ships and aircraft. Despite the fact that the cases are quite light, it is worth remembering that a computer assembled even in a small FX 4.7L case can weigh 4-5 kg. With such a weight, a fall even from a meter height, for example, from a table, can seriously deform the case and damage the components inside.
-
Cases made of acrylic.We do not make the case entirely from acrylic. In some cases, at the request of the client, we can install windows made of acrylic 2 or 3 mm.
-
Aluminum or steel?Steel and aluminum differ in their properties and price. Aluminum is more than twice as light as steel, and also conducts heat much more efficiently. Weight and heat transfer are important properties for a gaming mini computer. The advantage of steel is the cheaper cost of the material, as well as slightly greater strength.
