Meet Alfred.
He will be an HTPC with some gentle Home Server responsibilities. This thread is picture heavy. I'm no photographer, so what I lack in quality I make up with quantity.
It's made out of 18mm pine furniture board, and fronted with speaker cloth. Thanks to the winter weather and no indoor workshop, it's a slow process to get all the wood cut.
I designed the case to fit a 4x 140mm radiator in the front. The HWLabs Black Ice 560GTS is only 30mm thick but should still have enough surface area to dissipate the heat from an i7 and a 1070.
I haven't made up my mind on the PC hardware, except a short 1070 as the maximum card length is around 270mm. No 1080s are that short
I'll be asking some advice on that later, no doubt...
