Default CLR CMOS Switch

This is my most rescent mod with a 3 position toggle switch that hooks up to my CLR cmos jumpers on my mobo. It definately makes overclocking one hell of a lot easier and works like a champ.

Added a pushbutton version hidden in the indent for the front door lock of my Antec 1080 back when I first built my rig..... damned AOpen mobo.... haven't touched it once since I dumped that board for an Asus. But, they are a VERY helpful little addition!

The military switches are just actually switch covers. I have a couple and was going to use one but it wouldnt fit with the front panel closed. To hook it up to the mobo i just used a power led jumper from an old case. So far its worked pretty slick.

I have the skills and supplies to build my own, but if you were to build some up, I would buy about 20 of them for me and my den bros.....

Hmmm do you think if i were to sell them should i sell them with a drive bay cover or just sell the switch with the leads? I guess that could be an option to buy them with a floppy bay cover or a 5 1/2 inch cover and than also to have the option of buying them with a military flip cover. I wish i had the time cause you guys definately have me motivated. Unfortunately i leave for sea in two weeks.....damn navy anyways.

Edit: We shall see.....maybe ill get one of my civilian buddies without a job motivated to get it started.
