Magnolia
introducing project: "Magnolia" a casemod built using scrap generic pc cases. True to its theme, irony it seems.
I designed this case with compatibility in mind, specifically with psu choice and gpu. sff psu and itx graphics cards are hard to come by here in ph, If available its only for the wealthy. I also built this case from old generic cases for the same reason of inavailability and price. Lastly I made it portable for the reason that I might be moving from time to time, probably in A hospital quarter since Im a Nurse. I also applied what ive learned from my first sff case scratch mod goblin slayer. The problem I had with it is the ease of assembly so I made a point to make every single panel removable. making it easy to assemble. I also made airflow the second top priority since i wouldn't know if I'm going to stay in an airconditioned environment. The specs are as follows
cpu: Ryzen 5 3600
Mobo: Gigabyte Aorus B450i
Ram: gigabyte aorus 2x8gb 3200mhz
gpu: Msi Rtx 2070 super gaming X trio
boot: adata xpg sx8200pro 256gb
storage: 2x2tb seagate 2.5hdd (raid 0)
psu: seasonic focus SGX 500w
case: oem case hp or dell (cant determine)
magnolia is a 17.6 liter case
goblin slayer( my first sandwich case) is 13.6Liters
