Mac pro 2013 case mod
I actually wanted to do that but the room inside that case is really tight. The front panel is a little tricky because if you re-position the front panel you give less support for the top of the case and you probably don't want to bend the top easily. When you change a little here, there is always an effect somewhere But I do like your suggestion and I am always thinking ways to improve. Thanks Alex. I still don't see where the Wifi Antenna would connect? I think I saw you said it was at the top but I can't see anything from these updated images.
PlayfulPhoenix Just another human. You are very observant and I am surprise with your response. You know your stuff and I'm glad you understand were I'm coming from. You right Custom PSU will be expensive to make and on top of the the certification of its grade is going to cost you.
Ideally if there is enough people that like this case I will be doing that option.. I really wanted to do something different with the PC. It reminds me of Phones. I remember when phones where always plastic and the same because that is what the industry got used to.
PC mod imitates Mac Pro 2013 design
Then a phone maker did some radical things to the phone with manufacturing process and broke tradition. Today nearly all the phones are using aluminum with some complex machining. I want to do that with the PC case. Yes your right, the design is hard to manufacture but we came up with some cleaver techniques to get the cylinder with a curved top. It was endless nights of discussion but we got it cost effective in the process used I'm going to bed now.. QinX Master of Cramming.
I'm hoping the kickstarter succeeds in bringing this case to market, but to be honest and this is my very personal opinion. You talk about as being totally unique and new. But in fact is isn't and I'm a bit bummed by this. Yes this is a gorgeous looking product but it is a PC hardware compatible clone of the Mac Pro just plain and simple.
That you had to do a lot a engineering to do it better then the other Chinese knock-offs is certainly visible, but to me the, "we wanted to do something different" , and then present a larger Mac Pro and having an almost identical ID, the bottom vents look identical, is a turn off for me. Saying that this design is superior in thermals because it of the vertical airflow is absolute rubbish, natural convection occurs only with passive cooling, that fan doesn't aid natural convection it removes it by forcing air.
I can guarantee you can lay the case on its side and have the exact same thermal performance. Apple has superior thermal design, not because it doesn't throttle when the CPU and both GPUs are loaded, but because it shares a single heatsink among all 3 chips. Sorry for the negativity but I don't like it when people say, we are trying something unique and new, but it aren't.
Hi QinX.. Thanks for comments and your support in hoping that this Kickstarter will succeeds.
I have confidence that it will and if funded or not Dune Case will continue to move forward. The market response has been great for the Dune Case as many people love it and want to be the first to get one or wait for it to be reviewed. That has given us validation that there is a market that wants quality build for the PC user. I respect your comments about the Dune Case. But computers in cylindrical designs is nothing new. There are a number of cases and computers on the market before that have had cylindrical designs.
But what is different is more the inside than out side and as you can see we did put a lot of effort engineering this right. I'm not an expert in air flow but I did get an experience CAD designer and engineer from Europe to come to China and work with the factory to come up with the best air flow possible inside the case and best manufacturing practices for the case. I also sacrificed time away from my family in Australia to make this happen. The CAD designer worked with Solid works and other tools to optimize airflow.
We started with prototype one, analysed, made CAD changes, then built the next prototype. We did this four times. We used solidworks to Identify heat spots inside the case and with every progression on the case the heat was reduced every time.

We also came up with a unique PSU bracket that splits the air into two chambers that has uninterrupted airflow to the top of the case. The cables are nicely hidden in a compartment behind the GPU door mount and not dangling around in the case. In addition there is a large mm fan on top that can pull a bit of air out side of the case. The designs of the case is some thing different and in the designs we did our best to isolate the passage of airflow to achieve optimal airflow.

And as stated many times, this is a PC case that can accommodate a variety of processors as long as it supports the Mini ITX motherboard. Also some GPU run hotter than others. If this case was specifically focused on one set of hardware then that is a very different story. If it was, we could of optimized the Case based on specific characteristics of the hardware. It simply isn't. The beautiful thing about this case it can house hardware specs that is suitable for your lifestyle. All good here bro and I respect your thoughts, but I do believe we have done something new for the PC. Thanks for your comments Alex.
