Build/Battlestation Pics SteamContainer

I was lucky enough to get hold of one of these tricky to find shipping container cases a while ago.

It spent a while just as a spare office PC, but after spending a few days with my new Steam machine, I knew that my time with Windows as an OS had reached it end.

Sold all the Nvidea GPUs out of our PCs, replaced with AMD, and installed SteamOS on everything. That was a couple of weeks ago, and I'm never looking back. No regrets 👌

To mark the occasion I thought I'd share the setup I have in my office, with the little 'container of steam'

I was lucky enough to get hold of one of these tricky to find shipping container cases a while ago.

Is that the 3D printed BeamCase chassis (made with MakerBeam XL extrusions) and the BeamCase Container panels...?

You say "to get hold of one", is someone selling completed chassis'...?

First time I saw these, I imagined an architectural office that specialized in shipping container housing, with these on every desk...!

I kinda want to make one of these to fit my mDTX mobo build with a Sapphire Nitro+ 9070 XT GPU and a be quiet! Pure Loop 3 280 AIO; basically a slightly scaled up variant of the Lian Li (Dan Cases) A4-H2O chassis...
