Description

Bought this fanless mini PC from AliExpress to replace my existing old PC turned pfsense box because of the lower power consumption. (Electricity cost is increasing, I anticipate I will get back the cost of this in electricity cost savings in 2 to 3 years.)

 

Designed with minimal contact with the box to increase the available surface area for natural convection. The device footprint is 135x125mm with a radius of 5 to 6mm at all corners, if anyone is thinking of using it for other devices.

 

Runs 1 to 3 degrees Celcius cooler after having it raised. I am also deciding if I should have it stand vertically instead. So far letting it stand vertically has not seen a noticeable difference for me.

 

I printed in ABS, the mini PC external temperature can hit more than 50 deg C depending on your ambient temperature and workload and I doubt PLA will be suitable.
