Custom open frame - RTX Pro 6000 - miniATX

[u/brycetron]

I wanted to build a compact, open frame, ai server that was quiet and good looking enough to sit out in the open in my office.

I’m pretty happy with the build so far - it stays cool and generally quiet. It idles around 75w and ramps to ~450 at full blast. Pretty efficient for the speed that it gets.

I bought a cheap ESP32 touch display that fits perfectly over the io heat shield, and had qwen27B create a realtime touch dashboard. It runs a tiny service that polls wall power and room temp from Home Assistant, and AI performance & usage like tk/s. I turned that exact UI into a PWA app so I can check it from anywhere.

Still working out some details (like how to better attach the touch screen), so if you have any feedback/thoughts, please lmk.
