- AM4 CPU Protector -

Don't want prying hands dropping or touching your precious processors? Want an efficient way to store them without worrying about bending pins or static? Here's the solution!

This 3D printed container was modeled to fit AMD AM4 processors and the tolerances are relatively tight so I highly recommend you tune your 3D printer to avoid wasting filament if your settings aren't already up to snuff.

The integrated heat spreader of the processor drops into the recess and the slim piece goes over the processor pins. The grooves on the outside are for rubber bands, strings or zip ties to prevent rapid unscheduled disassembly. They're present on both bottom and top pieces.

Optionally, you could add some RTV silicone on the edges which would give it a water tight seal once it cures, perfect if you want to go fishing with some processors in your pocket.

You can see the tolerances above, after you secure the two pieces together there should be no rattle whatsoever. If it rattles slightly, try tightening the two pieces together some more. I'd recommend putting static-resistant foam if you're going to use RTV silicone to waterproof it since it would raise the lid dependent on how much silicone you cake on.

I've included the blender model in case you'd like to make some adjustments for your use-case. You can also make it a little bit bigger if you can't get your 3D printer settings right, the tolerances will be looser this way.

Happy smuggli- I mean err.. Processing!
