DISCLAIMER: There is no other purpose of this post but to avoid this happening to anyone and causing damage to their CPS3 board.
I strongly recommend and encourage everyone to replace the plastic stand-offs with the brass ones, I recently had a board shipped in the case and the bottom screws on the plastic stand-off fell apart and the board got loose in the case and got banged on all sides. The JAMMA connector got chipped off from one side and volume got broken as well. Luckily it still survived and is fully operational.
These are the ones I used (M3: 24mm): w/ M3 machine screws (on both top and bottom). Looks very sturidy now.

Glad I found this thread. About to order a blue one
CPS-3 Update Time!
I’ve made some major design changes for this new run and I’m really excited to share them with you:
Check out the video and pictures. Production has already started, and I’ll share the first sample with you all once it’s ready.

I’ve made some major design changes for this new run and I’m really excited to share them with you:
- Aluminum Construction – No more steel with car paint. The panels will be brushed and anodized, offering surface quality on par with the Octopus Arcade Stick.
- Cleaner Design – Thanks to new custom profiles, screws are minimized and hidden. The bottom now has just 4 screws — neat and clean.
- Simpler Assembly – Putting it together is much easier than the first version.
- Special LED Lighting – We’re using a homogeneous LED for illumination. The CPS-3 text will glow underneath, just like the DreamCase logo.

Hello people
i made all the tests on CPS-3 Case,
the mass production will be very fast but i want to be sure about everything.
I talked with some of the members in here already and i want to ask to all members also about the new feature
I have some questions to you people
1- I will add some standoffs and hole for the Darksoft UltraSimm Switch
Q: Which place is the best on the Case : ?
2- I want to add @twistedsymphony Rotary Switch
3- I will make Cartridge Protect Cover by metal this time. I have made it before for some friends in here ( Thanks to @opt2not and @imbord3rlin3
4- Thanks @cruzlink2. He said we need 2 small buttons on the case for HDMI.
Q: Do we need that or is there another option ?
5- @twistedsymphony has a new project for LCD game selector.
https://github.com/twistedsymphony/arcade_multi_system_lcd_selector
Q: Do you think is it necessary ?
Please share with me in here if you have another suggestions for CPS3 case.
Thank you.

I would say make sure you have the holes for the buttons hdmi and the hole for the ultrasimm dip board, and someone come up with 3d printed plugs to cover them in case you don't end up using them. Trust me I've done enough hdmi installs, where I had to dig the holes buy hand and it's no fun.
thanks!
thanks!

HI! hursit
Do you think you could make a version with an access hatch or a ventilation grille for those who have installed a heatsink and a fan?
I am also wondering whether the CPS3 logo with LED should be relocated, as it ends up being vertically aligned with the PPU DL2729 ?
With an additional plate to cover the cartridge port, for an extended (horizontal) configuration like the one I have on mine .
Thanks
Do you have a link to where these right-angle cart adapters are for sale?

No heatsink for dl2929?
Why the fan?
Trying to learn.
