SigInt Cyberdeck I built, running mint

Motherboard's from a 7th gen intel nuc, 50,000mAh battery from a repurposed power bank.
Has a HID Maxiprox behind the screen that i turned into a long range RFID badgegrabber, an RTL-SDR (tall antenna on the left) and an ALFA AWUS036ACM 2.4g and 5g wifi adapter (2 small antennas on the right).
Fits perfectly in my motorcycle top case, and weighs about 13 pounds. this was mostly made from parts i had laying around, but version 2 will hopefully be smaller and weigh less, probably gonna use a raspberry pi.

Xfce on a kali box... then you have a little box o doom...

Sweet. Although laptop parts would probably be better in terms of power consumption.

agreed, most of this stuff were things i had laying around, so its bound to be not perfect

Quick question, isn't RTL-SDR overheating in that box? It tends to get pretty toasty over time. I do see the fans, am just wondering if it's enough.

the fans work pretty well actually! left the rtl on for an hour, and came back to find it pretty cool inside
