Computer case feedback: Jennifer Hiller
Hej everyone!
I'm also an exchange student, so sorry for not writing in swedish
That's my first try of visualizing my concept, but sure it's not not finished yet, so maybe I can explain it a little bit more.
It is somehow a combination of 2 ideas: Airflow and accessibility.
The arrangement of the inner components assures a straight and also natural airflow from the bottom to the top. The HDD's e.g. are positioned vertically and also the motherboard is turned around, so that the graphic card can't stop the fresh air coming up. The breakthrough at the lower part creates a big area for cold air as well. In those images the grills for the in and outcoming air is missing, but it will be mostly at the lower part of the chassi (but not on the bottom itself). Thereby the fans on top can suck the air mainly from the bottom and transport it directly to the top.
The other thing is a removable module consisting of an optical drive and the most commonly used ports such as USB, audio etc... The user has the chance to pull it out of the case an position it on the table however they like. If you just want to have a "all in one" case or want to transport it, you can easily integrate it again. The extra box would be connected with a cable coming directly from the mainboard to assure enough performance and speed.
As the motherboard is turned, all the ports at the back are now located on the top, which is more handy. But to avoid to see a mess of cables, they're covered by a lid and guided to the back. So you have easy access as well as a nice appearance. I will show that as soon as possible maybe it sounds a bit strange...
It would be great to hear your opinions and proposals about it! And please don't hesitate to ask me!
TACK!
Jenny
