The Open PC with Infinite Airflow 

That mounting system is truly innovative, finally something new in the itx market!

Crazy an NR200P can get within 2 degrees of an open bench. That's totally worth the protection and dust filters for me personally.

There's something beautifully utilitarian about this type of "case". It's super satisfying seeing all that hardware unencumbered.

Can't wait for the LC builds. Having tube runs, run adjacent to the case tubes would look super clean.

This is incredibly cool. I'd love this in a mATX format. I think there's a market for people who don't want the compromises of ITX but still want a case like this. Love the idea, I'll be a customer if a company makes a mATX version of this.

Thanks Ali, really looking forward to seeing what you do with a custom loop in here, this might be just what I’m looking for.

Absolutely love the look, I honestly might even change from my Hydra Mini to this if it's not too expensive. Also I hope they offer it in different colors, especially with a black frame

Awesome! Looks pretty slick. Thanks for the demo. Thumbs up!!

I've been running an open PC for over two years now with the Streacom BC1 Mini. They are definitely dust magnets, but as long as you blow through it once in a while you get easily the best temps and noise levels out there. And i really like the look of it.

I love this concept. I can't wait to hear more about it when they finally start shipping it.

It crazy the kind of passion this guy has for SFF

The revision of the iem fiio fh3 would be nice

I just love the content...your videos are a great experience from thumbnail to end keep it up its great

"Hey here is this incredibly cool case that is not out yet, and no one knows when it'll come out"

Been running a black streacom f12c for a few years now, realy loving it. Also has this loveley customizability with movable brackets. Love the clean minimalistic look.

You're putting me onto so many good PC designs. Thanks!

Very nice product! Love the versatility of being able to customise the positions of the (radiator and PSU) mounting brackets. I've been using Thermaltake's P series cases for a while, and I love how quiet the builds end up. The one weakness is that these open builds provide no insulation against coil whine, so if a person gets unlucky with a screechy GPU, it can be quite awful. That's happened to me, and it defeated the purpose of the open and silent build!

I have my Aperio case stashed for my next build to be an ITX open air… Absolutely love the content, though. Keep it up!

I discovered and ordered the new XPROTO ATX open case thanks to this video. Im really happy with the build quality and thermals.

I think I just changed my mind on my next case! I've always liked the look of Streacom products but they consistently fall behind on current GPU sizing options. A custom loop on this thing would be awesome! A few initial thoughts below. Great video! Recommendations: - Stretch a little to fit newest 3090Ti cards and potentially futureproof for 4000 series - "non-shiny" version such as brushed aluminum or powder coating (i.e. no fingerprints) - Cover bracket on top/bottom to block view of external cabling - Pump/res bracket (perhaps adjustable vertical brackets that connect to those horizontal ones) - Include those adjustable brackets for all 4 sides; it looks like there could be room for three radiators for custom loops when using CPU block

B Rolls on POINT!🔥 Godly AF!

looks sick cant wait to see the final product

I've had the DA2 for about two years and I now want to swap for this. Very stylish company. I agree on the cable mods. Would definitely elevate the build. Maybe try a liquid cool and compare if the noise outweighs the performance.

you need to drop more VIDEOS MAN THESE VIDEOS GO CRAZY

Feedback: 1. Make sure there are alternate "Motherboard Spine" mounting holes to allow for 1 slot, 2 slot, and 4 slot GPU options. 2. Add holes to the top plate to allow for 80mm, 94mm, 120mm, and even 140mm fans. 3. I'd love to see optional side panels (with filters) one day! They could clip on to the case rails quite easily.

Once all the next gen stuff is out later this year I am planning on a completely new setup as I had to sell my old one last year and have been using a laptop. This case is basically an instant buy for me assuming the small kinks are worked out and its south of 300 bucks. This thing seriously ticks every single box in terms of features, aesthetics, and layout. Can't wait for the final version and a full release.

Thanks for the video @Opti ! And exactly as @Quickbaby said, I am super impressed that the NR200 is only 2°C warmer than an openbench (and look way nicer IMO). That Streacom DA6 is interesting with that nice mouting idea but those chrome tube look so seventies and fingerprint-magnet... definitely not my taste.

Pretty cool I'd like to see you do this build but with water cooling especially since the new 40 series cards are going to be taking up so much power

I am very happy i discovered this channel

Lovely case!! Feedback: Add a way to move the spine to either side so that there‘s the possibility to create some space between graphics card and motherboard - either for cable management or better airflow (especially the rear M.2 SSDs tend to get toasted in sandwich ITX-cases!)

looking forward to your review of the DA6 once its out since im in the market for a new case and would love the idea of an open air case ! Looking forward !

I’d love to see a full water cooled build in this, would be amazing to see what you could come up with. Really utilising those steel/chrome accents

The point about the thermals in a "case" like this is huge. I've built and rebuilt my system so many times experimenting with different aesthetics and performance, and I've finally settled on...a test bench. Not only is it more helpful for tinkering and overclocking, the thermals just never disappoint. For someone like me who can't help but obsess over performance but also loves a good/unique setup, this kind of case is the dream. Hopefully a company like this one nails compatibility, price, and availability some day.

Love this case! I'd like to see a few different finishes on the tubes, like satin nickel, black pvd coating, and gold.

I wanna see a typical Ali style clean and pleasing custom loop in that case.

Love it. I know it's going to be way more than say $80 (prob around $150) but I would say let's get at least a 360 rad, it looks like it should physically fit

can't wait to see an over the top water cooled build from you in this case

I love open designs. Nearly all my PCs were sitting on the motherboard box ever since the 90s. Always silent, clean, and the disks last ages because they're not stuck in an oven.

3 ideas: 1- Have the tubing for the central structure longer and provide screw mounting as a kit. This would allow for customized lengths, as tubing is very simple to cut and a simple internal bolting mount can be pushed inside the tube once the length is cut. 2- The upper blank plate could be milled to allow for a secondary plate screwed into it. This would allow for various customising for additional I/O mounts or RGB. 3- Provide additional brackets, or create a clasp, that allows for side panels to be clipped into place. The panels can be to order at specific sizes and finishes as an optional extra per panel required (1 to 4).

You should check out the Thermaltake Core P1. It's an ITX case that can support any size air cooler and 240 liquid cooler if you remove the glass. There are many parts that can be removed. It also offers a clean setup configuration with a 5cm thick tower to store drives and cables. It's easily the best case I've owned.

It would be cool if the top and bottom plates were adjustable. That way you can change the position to fit parts of varying sizes (like the gpu). For example, you could raise the top plate to make more space for the asus gpu you used in this example.

What I would love to see in a case is similar to this, but with a vertical 360 radiator on one side (one more spot for the other side if wanted to). That is like a 360 usage of the case, not just front and back.

Just preordered mine!

very interest case design! I am tempted to build one

GPU clearence of at least 36cm and 4 slots is needed, taking into account the next gen space heater cards from Nvidia. Besides that a little bit of room for flow through cards would also be nice. Optional side panels with holes that could just be slid on and off the case would make this the best itx case/chassis on the market.

I love open air. I've had to do a lot less cleaning than my closed case which would collect dust in every hard to reach corner. Dust is getting in regardless of how many filters you have. For me, I just wanted something with the least amount of surface area for it to settle or is easily accessible to clean with a DataVac. Plus the cooling is better.

Would be cool to have the plumbing for the water cooling integrated into the pipes that make up the sides of the case!

Definitely waiting on an update to this

I've been looking for a case for my future build for several months now. This is the first case to which I said "I want it".

Clean AF

Love your Videos 🙂

Have something like that built from MakerBeam profiles and 3d printed brackets. Highly recommend the approach. Still, might want to upgrade to the DA6 because it’s really beautiful 🤩 thanks for the video

I hope to see you build a mini itx with the 3090ti, great content by the way

This is a piece of art

Can't wait to see your custom water cooled build in this.

I think sliver hard line tubbing would look great. Especially matching the finish of the case

Love your videos! Have you ever thought about trying copper modding on your gpus?

Pretty cool stuff, I would want them to make the case slightly wider, so I can fit in a full size power supply, and my large noctua air cooler won’t be as exposed. I personally prefer a more “contained” look when it comes to open case, I don’t really like parts sticking out.

The Trident X with Silent Storm cooling seems to be pretty neat - it pulls in cold air from the bottom, exhausts it from the top, and separates the CPU, GPU, and power supplies into distinct thermal chambers so the heat from each can't cross-contaminate the cooling. With reduced air turbulence, I wonder if the cooling performance is even better than an open case.

Considering you fancy small form factor builds, would love to see you do a review on the Tecware Fusion!

Because of your Xtia video, i bought one and did a full custom loop on it with 2 x 280mm rads and omg its awesome. I think that they should have an option for acrylic glass tubes instead of the metal ones. I would like one with glass.

I need to see a custom loop in this case it looks awsome

I really like it, hopefully it comes out in the UK and Europe. Maybe have the steel round beams in a material that doesnt collect finger prints ? will it come shipped as flatpack to make it cheaper ?

I'd like to see more atx ones but another issue is they are usually more then a standard case with less materials used. That's why I purchased the meshify 2 recently.

This looks dope

Love the look...

love love the stainless steel. has this sort of mac pro design to it

The top panel could be used for someting. A cut out for extra long GPUs on the GPU side and a mounting mecanism for 2.5" on the psu side

think a totally modular case would be great. 4 main brackets that you can move to 2 options so you can have a square or rectangle size depending on your hardware. Screw mounting options for brackets instead of the slide ones, and supply lots of 2 sizes so you have options. Would also give 2 standoff heights like the mods did for the Mechlicious to route cables behind the motherboard to hide them and makes the build look much better.

A great match for the wassily chair!

Black anodized tubes would look fantastic on this.

If you ever do a build on this, I would appreciate a segment on I/O and plugging stuff in. Stuff like , what USB hub would fit with this or do I need 90 degree cables to make it look good.

beautiful

Color options for pipes and plates. Maybe adjustable slotted backplate to space the MB and GPU further apart like the Meshlicious standoff mod for hiding cables.

Remind me of my proven and airflow unbeatable thermaltake core P3! -still to this day the best case i have used for temperature

Something I would be very interested in if I were to buy this case are mounting brackets that would attached to the main tubes to hang the PC under the desk.

What do we want? CUSTOM LOOP!!! When do we want it? NOW!!!

we realy want to see the water cooling build nice video

I really dig this actually, I always wondered if there was a real reason not to just run a compact open test bench. I think the one thing I would like to see is support for setting it on the desk horizontal rather than vertical

Love this thing ❤

as a few others have said, would be be cool to see the chrome replaced by matte black for the frame, I’m generally not a fan of glossy surfaces, especially if you need to hold them to move the case, but otherwise this case looks very interesting!

I guess I need this one now. My X-Proto is outgrown left w/ a Strix 2080-Ti nearly bottomed out & the Strix 3090-Ti ain't gonna fit. Need 30mm more. It ended up w/ a Noctua D15 on it cause that 5.2Ghz OC'd i9 is bleeding boiling. I love the open frames now. Even my main X299 workstation is in one as well.

I'd love to do an open air ITX build in the future. As for a "next video" idea with this case, I'd be really interested in a noise comparison test between a custom water loop and an air-cooled build. If the air coolers on CPU & GPU have access to enough fresh air, can they run as cool and quiet as a water loop?

The frame and cutouts at the top of the case looks like they are usable as handles. Perhaps an open air portable build for LANs or frequent location changes.

For info of anyone with a mini DTX board, Streacom confirmed to me that it will fit in this case.

Infinite Airflow, Infinite Dust, Infinite Beverage Spills, Infinite Flies and Various Other Bugs. Awesome!

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Price it fairly and I'm in.

i think ill try this one. pump/res combo on top, 2x 240 rads and fans blowing "inside". this could look really neat.

I can't tell from the pictures if it's adjustable, but I would like some space between the back of the motherboard and the video card. Or maybe the ability to have a column between the two which would allow you to hide cables.

A couple improvements I would do to the case / some thoughts: - include a LOT of brackets. They don't seem to be too expensive and having the flexibility to hang up a bunch of drives etc would be great. Being able to have 4 brackets per each of the 4 sides would be great. - if you want to have two brackets hanging off the same pipe at the same height but going to two different neighboring sides, it seems like you should almost be able to do that by flipping one of the brackets "upside down" so they overlap, but the mounting hardware that is there seems like it would get in the way. There should be a tiny gap between the mounting screw (?) on the bracket and the large pipe, so that the other bracket's wire can go in there. I can't really tell from the video, but it doesn't seem like there is such a gap. - black square rubber feet that you can clip onto the pipe. Just a simple rubber mold with a square base bottom with a knurled surface. - make some 3D printable projects for the solid surfaces (metal bases) that are inside the case. For example, this case looks like it would be a cool replacement for the xbox series x case, which you could probably manage with a little 3D printing. Also, I'm not a big rgb fan, but if someone wanted to laser-cut their own plexiglas bases instead of the black squares that are sitting inside the case right now, having a 3D model would be very helpful for getting there. - make sure the thing isn't expensive. For what it is, people will approach it as a simple to manufacture item, so if it has a high price, it'll become a specialty-only item.

Are the end plates removable and is it possible to move the sliding brackets to the other main bars so we can mount fans or a PSU on any side. My concern is the PSU mounting can interfere with the flow-through cooler on founders cards. Being able to replace the end plates with a set of sliding brackets to mount a fan would be so cool. Also if they made the bars and brackets in black instead of the polished stainless. Even a bare brushed stainless would look better imo.

I'd like to see some snap-on feet for the rounded tubing. It looks great, but if I have to move it or slightly bump my table, I feel with those rounded tubes, it is very tip-prone.

I'd like to see the main tubing/frame in some other colors, I think it's an interesting opportunity for some interesting pigments/colors.

Would definitely love to see a full custom water cooled build with like 3 rads

Bring on more open "cases". Ever since Yuel Beast discontinued the Monument Motif I've been on the lookout for the next infinite airflow case.

If I had to give feedback, some rubber feet at the edges of the metal pipes to keep it from rolling over on its sides due to sudden movements where its situated. Rounded edges on pipes looks cool and sleek until you stand up suddenly and bump your desk and your rig topples over damaging your expensive hardware. Another option would be to flatten the points that its supposed to rest on giving it a more stable base. Plan for the worst, hope for the best. A great case nonetheless.

Latest update on DA6 is they be live to buy on OCUK in 2/3 weeks, I am interested in this one, Would like some more info on the I/O inputs like USB/Type C & close up of what modules come with DA6.

Good review as always. I appreciate your continued eye on ITX and in particular open air builds. I keep my Xproto-N on its side (all air) because I prefer that aesthetically and I didn't like cables coming out the top. With this DA6 it appeared while oriented vertically, the cables could come out the bottom? Perhaps Streacom could offer 90-degree cables as options so we could wouldn't have to dig around elsewhere. Could the DA6 lay horizontally as well as vertically?

LC would be interesting. Want to see double build. One that is with a reservoir and then the mounts that's all in one ditching the reservoir

Great vid you're a G 👏👏
