Hi there! I'm excited to share with you my custom-designed gaming PC case for the Raspberry Pi 3 B+. This case features compatibility with the ice tower cooler from 52PI. For this project, you will need the brass standoffs, acrylic, and spare fan(s) from the ice tower kit.

Print the parts with 80-100% infill with supports on the base (grid supports make cleanup easier)

Screw the brass standoffs into the base and tighten the nut on the other side.

Line up the Pi on the standoffs and screw together the second layer of standoffs through the Pi mount holes to hold the Pi in place.

Install side fan(s) with some nuts and bolts(m3x16mm) with the bolt coming fron the outside. Wire them to the 3v pins located on the pi's gpio. There will be a dual-fan version and a single-fan version.

Finally, install the ice tower on top. Wire it to 5v and put the PWM(blue) on GPIO 18 and set the fan pin in raspi-config. (The PWM wire can always be unplugged to have the fan always running)

Once you've done that, you can either glue or screw the acrylic onto the side.

There you go! You now have a pi gamer!

Let me know what you think in the comments, and post a make so others can see it!

I recently realized how tricky it is to remove the sd card, so I will fix that soon.
