| Ive just completed my first proper mod, there will be more added to it over time but i have other commitments at the minute (namely my fiancee and work). This has taken me about 1 full week to do, although it has been spread over about 2 months. I dont know who made my case and i cant find any markings on it, or whatever was there was sanded off. Its been stripped down to bare metal sprayed and then lacquered with a satin finish, the green 120mm fan is cooling a Zalman copper flower. The rest of my system is as follows, AMD Athlon XP2600+ (not OC yet... cant afford a dead one...) 740MB PC2100 Crucial RAM Herc. Geforce2 TI4200 NEC ND1300 DVDRW Sony 52/24/52 CDRW Adaptec SCSI Controller 2X IBM 180GXP 120GB HDD in a RAID 1 configuration IBM 120GXP 40GB Seagate 10000 RPM Ultra SCSI 2 18GB Drive MSI KT6 Delta Ill be adding to this fairly soon and ill be starting a new SFF camouflage system (a Sony HIFI amplifier is involved more to come soon!!!) Let me know what you think and what you think i need to change Thanks Big Dan ![]() ![]() | ||

Good job so far. I'm gonna second Sparky on this--definitely paint (or stealth) the drives. And you need to take care of the frame and the PSU--with this huge window of yours, all that grey inside stands out like a sore thumb. Some bright color in there would really add a lot to the project (I'm thinking bright green or maybe bright blue). Some internal lighting wouldn't hurt either. Plus, all that free space above the PSU... It's just asking for a WC setup... | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

| yeah i will be going for a blue LED fan fairly soon, it was originally going to be green but it just didnt do it for me... I would love to try watercooling but it just plain scares the bejeesus out of me, i am unlucky enough to have an Abit AT7 die on me, that really gave me an excuse to rip it apart and put it together again, although that could be seen as a bit of good luck. I was thinking some UV paint combined with a Switchable Blue CC on top so i could change the settings if i wanted to, i will also be stealthing the drives as soon as i find the other covers its taken me 3 months to dig out the other 2 from god knows where, although i think i may be solving that very soon. there wil be another blue CC on the bottom in where my drives live to light up the MSI board better, but ill keep you all updated as it progresses, im not really new, ive just been a lurker and felt that i didnt really have anything worthwhile to contribute so i just watched instead. but thanks for the greets all the same, some of the stuff that you guys do is really stunning, if my own turns out half as well, i will be really pleased. edit: i will be going to WC i just burnt my finger on my HARD DRIVE its a 10000RPM Monster, so it could do with some active cooling. | ||
