Mini-STX LiquidCooled Mod (Asrock Deskmini X300)

I created a Liquid-cooled PC for Mini-STX.

Since the existing DeskMini has no space for a radiator or pump, I have created a case and a dedicated pump reservoir.
I also created a WaterBlock to cool the X300's MOSFETs since they generate a lot of heat.
The case is made of steel and only the front panel is made of black anodized aluminum.
The reservoir is made of CNC machined acrylic.
The base of the MOSFET WaterBlock is machined from pure copper and nickel plated. The top section is CNC machined as well as the reservoir.
