The final design
The introduced Intel Brain-Lab is a high security artificial intelligence science lab of the future. To keep new inventions and ideas safe the critical components float above the main building, with very few connections only in the center of the building. This makes unauthorized access to the components very difficult. The main building is furthermore secured with large metal spikes.
The lab utilizes artificial intelligence, powered by the future Intel i9x CPU and an Intel AI accelerator GPU, powered by the Intel Ze UHPG (Ultra high performance graphics), a successor of the Intel Xe GPU technology.
Data is stored using Intel Optane extreme Solid-State-Drives, while new inventions are stored in an Intel Idea Storage container, which is a new Intel Optane Liquid-State-Drive, utilizing Intel Smart Storage Technology. Bad ideas are simply discarded with a drainage on the side of the building.
Design changes from the initial submission
Compared to the initial submission a few design changes were made due to various reasons. The make the build more compact, the number of liquid containers was decreased from two to one, and the reservoir was mover from the side of the motherboard to the front of the motherboard. This way the whole build got shorter.
The large 200mm fan on the left was also scraped because I think it didn't look good. I had the fan already mounted on metal legs but then decided to remove it.
The decals were also changed and adapted. I based the design on various presentations from Intel, to keep the build close to the modern esthetics of the Intel brand.
Initially I planned to build the base box from stainless steel or aluminum but decided to go for acrylic as it is easier to laser cut. I added several fins inside the box to make the box strong enough to hold the build.
Finally, although the would be able to just rest on the power and cooling connectors, I added one aluminum stand in the center of the build, just to be sure it holds up ok. Although I got the components for free, they are still worth a lot of money and I didn't want risking to break them.
