a. Name of mod:
EIZO Complexity Case Mod 2009
 

 
b. Description of my case mod:

Idea

When my fantastic EIZO FlexScan T68 died I felled very sorry since we already have been friends through 8 years where the EIZO FlexScan T68 monitor have given me the best pictures I ever have seen on a monitor. So I thought this should not be the end of my great EIZO so my imagination was questioned how could I still get anything out of my old monitor, even if it not could deliver any pictures anymore?

Since I like to have a PC case with my one touch I thought it could be nice to make a complex monitor case mod where both PC and LCD monitor is installed in one unit. This was the beginning of my EIZO FlexScan T68 Analog LCD case mod project, where you could see the LCD monitor through the acrylic glass I have build into the front of my old monitor.

g. Air flow:

I have installed some FANs in the EIZO Complexity Case Mod 2009 to increase the air flow.

I only measured the temperature by hand and it did not fell any hot! Also the "Monitor" has a meshed surface –
which allows air both seep in / out.

But there will always be some areas with less air flow like in a normal PC case in this case I’m a little concerned
about the area around the hard drives.




















I have installed some 80 mm FANs in the EIZO Complexity Case Mod 2009 to increase the air flow
also I have installed a 92 mm exhaust FAN in the top of the monitor mod.
 

 
h. Hardware setup:

Motherboard
Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6

Graphics Card
Gigabyte GV-RX26T256H

Memory
Kingston HyperX DDR2 1200Mhz

CPU Cooler
Zalman CNPS8700 LED

Optical Drive
BUFFALO BR-816SU2 Blu-ray External Optical Drive
