PC gaming lately tend to become more and more compact, and the form factor Mini-ITX can find many productive components. Crono Labs company decided to combine two trends in the project body C1 for "national" funding IndieGoGo.
The first project stage - to raise $ 2000 for the creation of four computer case prototypes , mounted behind the monitor with support mounts VESA. The case has the dimensions 446 x 270 x 122 mm, it allows the motherboard format Mini-ITX and Micro-ATX. However, the first provides the installation of two radiators size of 120 mm and 240 mm at the same time. Power supply ATX format is located in the neighborhood, and the dimensions of the video card is limited to maximum length of 267 mm.
The case can only have low-profile CPU cooler, so preference is given to a cost-effective processors or liquid cooling system. For storage, there are two compartment sizes 3.5 "and two compartment sizes 2.5". The total number of case fans size 120 mm up to four pieces of the side body panels made mesh.
C1 case project has already gained $ 1788 from the two thousand dollars, which are necessary for the production of four prototypes. Mass production of the body will require a new round of national funding. The authors suggest that the retail value of the product will be able to keep within the $ 150 - not including the cost of the monitor, the components of the cooling system and power supply, of course.
