Open Aluminium Test Bench

The myVolts open-air server chassis is built from CNC-machined 6061 aluminium alloy with a sandblasted anodised finish. It measures 20.5 by 31 by 37 centimetres and accepts ATX, micro-ATX and mini-ITX motherboards. An adjustable motherboard tray was moved upward in the latest revision to clear tall graphics cards against the I/O bracket. The frame uses a mortise-and-tenon joint on the upper-right corner that opens with two screws for custom water-cooling routing.

Builders Wanting Unrestricted Cooling

This bench suits enthusiasts who need unlimited graphics-card and radiator length, plus support for 120, 240, 280 or 360 millimetre water-cooling columns. Two 2.5 or 3.5 inch drive mounts are included. Builders who require a closed case for dust protection, acoustic dampening or standard front-panel I/O should look at enclosed chassis instead.

Vertical Aluminium Frame Dimensions

The single specification that decides fit is the 20.5 by 31 by 37 centimetre vertical frame. Verify that your workspace, shelving or rack can accommodate this footprint and height before ordering.

Questions about this item

How do I install the motherboard and which step is most often missed?

Mount the board on the supplied baffle bracket using ATX, MATX or ITX standoffs, then secure the assembly to the vertical frame; the step most builders skip is fitting the graphics-card bracket before the board goes in.

What maintenance or replacement will this chassis need later?

Only the two 2.5/3.5 drive trays and the switch wire are serviceable parts; the 6061 aluminium frame, CNC-machined base and anodised panels require no scheduled replacement.

What limit appears first during sustained heavy loads?

The open-air layout removes case-airflow limits, so the first bottleneck is the cooling capacity of the 120, 240, 280 or 360 mm radiator you choose to install.
