Introduction: LilCubey - a 3d Printable MATX Acrylic Cube Pc Case
This is a nice-looking, 3d printable pc case designed to stand out. The sharp corners and plexiglas give it a modern, futuristic and eye-catching appearance. Another great thing about the design is it only need a 180 x 180mm bed to be printed.
The airflow is also designed optimaly where the gpu and cpu manage to stay cool even on the most intense benchmarks.
Pc case features:
310mm GPU
205mm CPU Cooler / Single fan AIO
5 x 120mm Fans
SFX PSU
MicroATX/MiniITX
1 Slot for SATA SSD
