@mateo4779 The reason is EMI prevention. Some ferrite beads are same reason. Unfortunately we can not see its effect. And I found that this metal case was hot when PC was running. This inner case with thin metal cover encloses and releases heat. So, I think it is necessary to cool the metal case secondarily. I put a 4mm x 4mm small fan(outflow) at front of HDD position.
hes not actually useing the xbox brink for the power supply hes useing it for the power in general and useing a pico mini itx power supply for it which is rather smart if i say so myself im curious to ask how he did the power button though and the hard drive for it quick disconnect hard drive
this is gay

....... did you put plastic shields around the side of the cpu heatsink? i hope those dont go all the way down to the motherboard....

@mateo4779
No, only around the fan. Air flows through heat-sink. I tried to investigate CPU and chip-set degree.
It was very good way to cool them. It was same as intake manifold or fannel.

@dooards also why did you keep the thin metal top piece. there is really no reason to leave it inside the case
