Builder's dream PC case vanished from stores, so they 3D printed a masterpiece and shared the design — SFF case benchmarked, recreated to fit new GeForce RTX 50-series GPU

FF04MOD Block I 3D-printed SFF case by u/AudiblyTacit.

A maker just shared their custom 3D-printed SFF case based on the discontinued Xikii FF04, a sub-10-liter case that integrates an Asus Pro Art RTX 4080 Super. Redditor u/AudiblyTacit showcased their build in the r/sffpc subreddit, stating that they had heavily modified the design to accommodate their updated hardware and calling it FF04MOD Block I. The custom SFF case now features a more recent Asus RTX 5070 Ti Prime OC and the AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, which remains one of AMD’s most potent gaming chips.

u/AudiblyTacit said they based their custom build on a 3D-printed model from another user, then heavily modified it for their hardware, aesthetics, and performance. For example, they modified the lid to add a vent with a magnetic mesh screen to improve airflow, and changed its color from the usual single-color black or gray found in most PC builds to alternating red-and-white diagonal stripes. They also added a similar design to the GPU power adapter, but this time incorporating a flammable warning as a nod to the melting power adapters that have affected several modern high-powered GPUs.
