It appears this video has been getting some traction recently! 😁 Thank you all for your support and suggestions. Even though the Kickstarter was not successfully funded, I'm happy to say we're still hard at work bringing this product to life, and are currently developing a new and improved design that will not only be cheaper, but also have an adjustable base!

We'll be focused on the US market at launch, but plan to expand to other regions if things go well. That's not to say we couldn't ship to Europe at launch (or anywhere else in the world) but we won't have any fulfillment centers outside of the US, so shipping would be insane - like $400-$700 USD. @@CptnBalu
This is an amazing concept! My only gripe is that there is no sit/stand functionality. It would be cool if a future version of this desk had an optional sit/stand add-on or something!
its because no one really knew about it. It needs to get in the right hands. AKA streamers like Asmongold to be able to push it. Other wise it will rot in the fundraiser page.
@@4dchessplayer516 nah it’s the price. More expensive than any sit-stand desk which are all the hype nowadays. And a LOT of people actual like showing their pc case on their desk. Especially gamers.
@@cakeisalie yep, it's a nice product. But they forgot to ask themselves if there's a market for it. Just watching the PC case market going heavily into "fishtank" design with glass panels everywhere. People (at least the kind of people sinking that much money on their build) don't want to hide their PC.
If this was a pre-launch campaign 2-3 months ahead, this video getting recommended right now would have definitely gotten the Kickstarter project fully funded. Your next one will raise $1,000,000+ I can see that. Wishing you well team!
I just wanted to say that this design is incredibly elegant and well executed. I hope this gets another shot and I wish you and your team so much success! This is an accomplishment that anyone would take pride in.
If I could just buy the top desk part then I’m all in! I can pair this with a standing desk kit I already have and components. I don’t care for the wireless charging either. Love a minimal layout
This desk looks awesome! The only issue i have is for those of us that have multiple monitors or 1 very large monitor and the inability to mount them. Many monitor feet look so tacky and take up a lot of real estate especially when using more than one. Looks like the tray for cables and things in the back would hinder clamps style mounts and the desk itself doesnt seem like one you would want to drill through for mounts that use that method. But overall, very neat!
@@dale7561 I think cable management should stay in the back, but if the tray opened in multiple pieces, it would make clamping onto the back easier! This would be less aesthetically pleasing though... or as OP said, a hole in the desk, or even propietary mounting system would solve this.
Or strategically placed pass through holes for through-desk type mounts. Covers for the holes that don't look awful (hopefully hides them) for those that decide not to use them or a different top with the holes you'd choose when you order. This without legs so I can add motorized ones may temp me to buy, though I currently have a huge monitor mounted to the wall behind my desk.
I'll have to say: I am really interested in this but standing desk is a must for me personally As well as: EU power plugs of course and at least 180cm width for the desk (but I don't know if you have both of these points already)
Hey guys, I emailed the Luke at encase email but haven't gotten a response. I don't think you should give up on this product. Email back if you want to discuss some ideas... I think I can help bring this to life! Thanks
I know the project wasn't funded, but I love seeing the front IO in a desk, the wireless charging, and the cable management. Even having the whole thing as a barebones kit with the PC tray as an option would be super cool. I am just now hearing about this months later, so I'm wondering if it didn't get funded for lack of visibility.
There should be option to have height adjustments as well! I think there is market for desks like this one. It's great executed and considering buying case+desk pricing is understandable.
I use Macs exclusively now, but if I were still into PCs and PC gaming and such, I would totally go for this. Seems really well thought out and executed
No criticism at all, I'm interested to know why you're exclusively Mac. I personally can't see any benefits, but I understand this is subjective and depends on your needs. Again. I'm genuinely interested, not trying to cause any factional controversy.
@@MattDTB1 I cant speak for OP, but i personally use both. I'd say i use my Macbook Pro (M1 Pro) 90% of the time, and my gaming PC 10% of the time. Even for video and photo editing, apple media and graphics engines that are specifically designed for this kind of stuff are unrivalled.. its why most of the industry are on Mac. People look at music and video producers as posers because they use Mac's, but theres so many more benefits to it.. I also much prefer the mac for everyday use because MacOS is so fluid and simple and easy to use, and is also blisteringly fast on load times.. But when it comes to gaming, nothing beats a gaming PC.
I should also mention that Apple design their own hardware and software, completely. Everything is made to work together, and its why it works so perfectly. You see a lot of issues with PC's because its all kinds of different brands and chipsets and hardware working together, and sometimes it does work, sometimes it doesn't.
@@MattDTB1 If I wasn't a gamer I would be exclusively Mac & Linux. I am a software engineer and Macs are closer to linux than a PC is (they are UNIX based). Apple products always have solid build quality physically, good resale value, support, longevity, etc. The OS is cleaner in my opinion, and better for productivity.
The quality and price point on this are extremely exciting! My main worry is rigidity and strength against side forces on the legs without a rail running along the underside of the table at the back, like the Husky worktables have.
Wait.... This is one of the most brilliant design ever. Not only does it saves space, it's also one of the most secure design for compagnies and professionals alike... because if you want to steal a computer, what are you gonna do with a whole ass table...?! It's never going to sell on the use market anyway! It also means the PC must be quiet. Makes me want to do this!
The desk looks beautiful. If this is successful, please consider expanding your portfolio to the full suite of standard desk options including L-Shaped and Motorized options!
seems like a very well thought out product. you guys took your time getting feedback and getting all the human factors dialed in...the attention to detail is impressive and so is the seeming build quality based on the video. Congrats on the project
Glad to hear you're still working on the project! Here are a few things that would make this a slam dunk in my eyes: - Size options (48", 60", 72"?) - Some kind of solution for monitor arms/VESA mounts - Ditch unnecessary bells and whistles that will eventually become obsolete (e.g. wireless charger; this desk will dramatically outlive the current Qi standard) - Sub-$1000 USD Personally, I'm just looking for a rock solid, versatile, reasonably priced desk PC. I believe in the vision!
Hi, thanks for the feedback. 1. We can do both 60" and 72" but most likely only 60" will be available at launch. 2. The new design (see pinned comment) will support monitor arms. 3. In the new design, the charger is easily swappable, so there shouldn't be any issues with upgrades in the future. 4. Sub $1000 would be tough, but not impossible.
@@encasepci built a prototype out of wood with ikea legs. Doing the math on parts and labor the costs were $240 and shipping was another $200 if I was going to sell it.
Dude I just kept on getting more and more shocked with the cable management then I saw the rotating head on the one cable in the wall and I just couldn’t believe how much you guys thought of lmfao
Hopefully when this got more successful . There should be another versions with the adjustable height. I knew its not easy building the first consumer desk pc so congrats on making it possible for us consumers
The fact that the video that inspired you was from DIY perks in the first place just goes to show what amazing things one can do with some tools and a little bit of work
As someone who struggles with cable management this would be a godsend for me. Sucks I just lost my job, but maybe eventually I'll be able to pick one up once it's available
Perfect! Decades ago, when Home PCs were really very new, I had a dream. I would invent a PC where all the modules were plugged into an office desk. To upgrade your storage, just lift the lid unplug one and plug in another. Then I woke up. But here it is.... my dreamed of invention!!! Will it take off?
I can’t believe Linus Tech Tips helped to popularize the doomed Dune Case and yet didn’t even report on this..despite the fact the prototyping company is only a couple hours away from their studio
This looks so cool, It's like a brand new form factor! One thing I'd love to see is spring-loaded mechanism that can roll up cords when you're not using them and unspool and lock in place when you are. That would be a bonus for drawing tablet users.
Very cool, gonna look more into this kind of thing for the future. Its very clean and simplistic. Hopefully this kind of product takes off and becomes cheaper down the line. It just makes complete sense.
I was the guy who started Red Harbinger, and we made the Cross desk about a decade ago. Was the dream machine computer for maximumpc in 2014. Wanted to do something like this build and have all the files for it, but the cost of production for Cross put us under. Awesome build
Nice work guys, some awesome ideas here! I think some rubber grommets (or chamfers) on hard edges to protect cables should be a consideration (ie the holes in the legs and the 90 degree channel into the rear of the desk). Possibly in the future an installable shroud to direct the air from the underside exhausts (either to the right, or the rear of the desk) away from the user. It could slide into place like the motherboard tray. Is there scope for deeper/wider trays for those who wish to build custom watercooling loops? Either way, fantastic work - keep it up!
Late to the game here, and I'm sorry this didn't get funded. But the entire concept is excellent, and had I known about it much sooner, I would have totally invested. Good luck for the future of your projects 🤍
I hope that when I can afford this (in around 3 years or so) y'all will have a standing desk option. I just got one, and the ability to adjust the height of my desk is something I'll always need moving forward. I also recommend incorporating some glass or seethrough material into some of your designs, since a lot of people who own pro computers want to show them off.
At some point can you open another kickstarter? I would love to own this because I’ve been looking for a new setup exactly like this. But it doesn’t exist.😢
You should add a lip before the cable channel, to avoid any spills from leaking in and ruining the whole thing. Would hate to spill something and then the water pools towards wires and stuff.
I consume a loooooooooooooooooooooot of Tech content here....but THIS!....this right here!......This is tech! Genius!!!.....I need one of these....Talk about problem solving maaaaan!!!!
If this was a standing desk that had ports for plugging a laptop in I think it would be a winner. The corporate market is much bigger than gamers and the former doesnt require you to have your own desktop PC
WOW. This is such a cool concept (almost a reality lol) and I would love to have one! A bit expensive though, maybe you can make a more budget option with a smaller desk and cheaper materials. The desk costs $400 more than my PC!
@@MortalShores If the point is to kickstart it which they didn't and sell more products which they don't then your logic makes zero sense. It's a custom made table. Even if the wood costs 500€ and legs (2 solded together) 200€ each you have a very expensive custom 900€ table. And then 300€ for the job and cables? And how much for shipping for a literal desk? Racing has nothing to do with it. It's about convenience and practicality. Doesn't matter what you put in it. Oh and just for reference it costs approximately 200-250€ inc TAX to buy a SINGLE piece of Oak at this size. But this is a 5 smaller piece wooden plank job reinforced with custom metal sheets not even close to a full slab of wood.
I love desk PCs! This one is the best i've seen yet. But it don't solve one problem that i always see. I agree, the desk pc must have the air intake and outtake underneath the desk itself. But with that you are forced to position the AIO CPU Watercooler facing downwards, and that create bubbles. I was trying to thing of a solution to that, someway that gravity wouldn't get in the way of the position of the tubes, but i can't think of any way. Unless we made that desk thicker, which is worse. Or custom watercooling, which is too complicated for most people who just want a practicle desk pc. If anyone have any ideas, i would love to read it.
Can't believe I'm only seeing this now. Would have backed, perfect desk width and length airflow doesnt seem like an issue. Wondering if they are still running with this and if a UK version was ever in the works.
I like the concept and how it looks, but the reason why I personally wouldn't buy it is due to the bulge from the PC itself, incompatibility with monitor arms, and lack of width options. I have a sit/stand desk and my legs are literally a couple inches from the underside of the top when I'm using my leg rest. I work in IT and have several monitors mounted to an arm. I wouldn't want to go back to using monitor stands, especially when the key point of this desk is to gain more desk space. Due to my work setup, I require a wider desk than what is shown. Also another thing to consider is expandability. I was able to add a third leg to my standing desk and add another section to turn it into an L-desk. Hope this feedback helps with possibly another iteration.
I have to say the design for the concealing cables is very well thought, as now my desk (under part) is like a jungle even though there’s only a few cables. Also the price feels very balance
It's a shame this didn't make it, since it would have been a nice option. If you ever try this again, it'd be really nice if there were an option to use a sit-stand frame, and possibly the ability to integrate an ergonomic keyboard tray.
I think this has a perfect niche in the market for people who don’t want the massive glowing box taking up space, if you took the best elements of the Secret Lab Magnus Pro: Sit / Stand with the integrated power supply, maybe the magnetic mousepad with the caveat that it isn’t too thick so the integrated phone charger still functions, making sure the cable routing has adequate room for mounting monitors, there would be a lot of people who prefer that ecosystem. I really hope this product takes off, gladly give you 2k+ for it.
honestly you could even just make a bare bones under desk system that you install on any standard standing desk and it might be more viable. i looked and all i could find were finicky server rack models or home entertainment models. I just want brackets and a splash sheild on the back side maybe

Curious about how monitor arms work with it. Overall, a really convincing product.

If this was a standing desk that had ports for plugging a laptop in I think it would be a winner. The corporate market is much bigger than gamers and the former doesnt require you to have your own desktop PC
WOW. This is such a cool concept (almost a reality lol) and I would love to have one! A bit expensive though, maybe you can make a more budget option with a smaller desk and cheaper materials. The desk costs $400 more than my PC!
Putting a $600 PC in this desk is like racing a 1996 honda accord in F1. Yes it will eventually get around the track, but it simply doesnt belong.
@@MortalShores Yeah I know, except not everyone needs a $3000 4090 system, I'm completely fine with my mid range system right now
@@oKokimaru Just like everyone doesnt need this desk for their PC, and doesnt need to comment on the pricing from their skewed POV
@@MortalShores If the point is to kickstart it which they didn't and sell more products which they don't then your logic makes zero sense. It's a custom made table. Even if the wood costs 500€ and legs (2 solded together) 200€ each you have a very expensive custom 900€ table. And then 300€ for the job and cables? And how much for shipping for a literal desk?
Racing has nothing to do with it. It's about convenience and practicality. Doesn't matter what you put in it.
Oh and just for reference it costs approximately 200-250€ inc TAX to buy a SINGLE piece of Oak at this size. But this is a 5 smaller piece wooden plank job reinforced with custom metal sheets not even close to a full slab of wood.
Subscribed and hope you guys get more recognition
This but motorized is absolute perfection
I love desk PCs! This one is the best i've seen yet. But it don't solve one problem that i always see. I agree, the desk pc must have the air intake and outtake underneath the desk itself. But with that you are forced to position the AIO CPU Watercooler facing downwards, and that create bubbles. I was trying to thing of a solution to that, someway that gravity wouldn't get in the way of the position of the tubes, but i can't think of any way. Unless we made that desk thicker, which is worse. Or custom watercooling, which is too complicated for most people who just want a practicle desk pc. If anyone have any ideas, i would love to read it.
Dont slam your desk out of anger, youll break something expensive
Whenever these are available I will be buying one. I’ve always been interested in a build like this!
Can't believe I'm only seeing this now. Would have backed, perfect desk width and length airflow doesnt seem like an issue. Wondering if they are still running with this and if a UK version was ever in the works.
If this would be a standing desk, it would be awesome!
What’s the game plan since it didn’t get funded on Kickstarter?
I like the concept and how it looks, but the reason why I personally wouldn't buy it is due to the bulge from the PC itself, incompatibility with monitor arms, and lack of width options. I have a sit/stand desk and my legs are literally a couple inches from the underside of the top when I'm using my leg rest. I work in IT and have several monitors mounted to an arm. I wouldn't want to go back to using monitor stands, especially when the key point of this desk is to gain more desk space. Due to my work setup, I require a wider desk than what is shown. Also another thing to consider is expandability. I was able to add a third leg to my standing desk and add another section to turn it into an L-desk. Hope this feedback helps with possibly another iteration.
I have to say the design for the concealing cables is very well thought, as now my desk (under part) is like a jungle even though there’s only a few cables. Also the price feels very balance
yeah was gonna say, i'd love a standing desk option for this the way this cable management is routed is the perfect standing desk pc aio.
Imagine going on an LAN with that. 😂 "I bring my Table with me" hahaha 😂
Love the Design
This is so well designed. I wish I could buy one
Yall should open up the top of the desk, like a car hood. Seems like it would be much more accessible
I'm proud that you were able to achieve this. I want to follow my dreams but there are too many things stopping me. good luck. 🙂
that's actually brilliant
Fantastic video, love the look of the build! keep it up man
Really interesting, no doubt.
It's a shame this didn't make it, since it would have been a nice option. If you ever try this again, it'd be really nice if there were an option to use a sit-stand frame, and possibly the ability to integrate an ergonomic keyboard tray.
I wish i had known about the kickstarter campaign. Id love to have one of these
I think this has a perfect niche in the market for people who don’t want the massive glowing box taking up space, if you took the best elements of the Secret Lab Magnus Pro: Sit / Stand with the integrated power supply, maybe the magnetic mousepad with the caveat that it isn’t too thick so the integrated phone charger still functions, making sure the cable routing has adequate room for mounting monitors, there would be a lot of people who prefer that ecosystem. I really hope this product takes off, gladly give you 2k+ for it.
I'd like to get this but I travel way too often to need this on the fly. Maybe I'll get this when my spare time is fair.
honestly you could even just make a bare bones under desk system that you install on any standard standing desk and it might be more viable. i looked and all i could find were finicky server rack models or home entertainment models. I just want brackets and a splash sheild on the back side maybe
Good idea, maybe we could release something like that as well
A minimalist’s dream.
