MicroForge Server Case

This custom-designed case is engineered for a compact home server setup, optimized for the Micro ATX platform. It supports the Gigabyte B365M motherboard (226 mm × 205 mm), ensuring precise internal alignment and efficient space utilization. The chassis accommodates a TFX power supply (Tacens Anima APII500P, 500 W, 85% efficiency), providing a compact and reliable power solution. Thermal management is achieved via an 80 mm × 80 mm × 10 mm fan, strategically positioned to direct airflow to critical components. For storage, it includes capacity for a standard 3.5-inch hard drive, integrated into the internal design to maintain airflow continuity and structural balance. The case assembly uses M2.5 × 15 mm screws for the main structure, ensuring mechanical stability, while the fan is secured with M2 × 10 mm screws for precise installation with minimal vibration. Overall, the design prioritizes compactness, efficient airflow, and modular compatibility in a small form factor server environment.
