LiquidChaos · May 16, 2002, 04:25 PM

This is my current project... it is a work in progress.

window mod.

Inside case. All IDE cables are now silver and PSU cables are all nylon wrapped.

Baybus shot.

I received my watercooling gear yesterday so this will all change this weekend. I will post pictures of the case when it is all installed.

I plan on painting this case as well when time permits.

LiquidChaos · May 21, 2002, 04:19 PM

Zardon · May 21, 2002, 07:05 PM

May 21, 2002, 07:55 PM

looks awesome and at least the guy has the sense to use AMD

WyreTheWolf · May 22, 2002, 12:19 PM

OK guys, I am half way finished with my window mod... the window is a huge AMD logo. I have the green cold cathode... so probably before this weekend I will have it completed... I borrowed a fair working digital camera... So, I will also have pics.

Update soon!

Chris4Prez · May 22, 2002, 12:29 PM

If anyone needs their pictures hosted, I don't mind hosting them for you!

WyreTheWolf · May 23, 2002, 01:27 PM

OK guys, I have built a simple how to page on window mods. You can check out my new window, and modifications to my PC here.

Let me know what you all think.

Laterz!

UberLord · May 23, 2002, 02:01 PM

Nice mod

I'd like to stick a window in mine, but would prefer some kinda rubber mounting so the glass/perspex sits inside the hole instead of overlapping it - so it all looks nice and level. Anyone got any good links for doing a mod like this?

edperks · Jun 11, 2002, 12:31 AM

Just finished the hard part on my rig. Needs to painted on the outside anybody got any cool Ideas?

Here the link to my Rig

No, there is no paint on that case.. That is where i got a little crazy with the polishing wheel.

No big deal.

Jeff · Jun 22, 2002, 05:03 AM

duct

Dom · Aug 11, 2002, 04:20 AM

I like the duct!

WyreTheWolf · Aug 11, 2002, 05:57 AM

SHUKI! Excellent job bro! Now all you need to do... is buy one of my aluminum cases :P

Seriously ... excellent job.

shuki · Aug 11, 2002, 06:45 AM

yeah but I'd be too afraid to butcher up aluminum heh

digitalwanderer · Aug 11, 2002, 07:02 AM

Does that duct help with temps? And how do you slide-lock the side back on?!? (BTW-Sweet looking mod!

)

Chaos · Aug 11, 2002, 07:27 AM

I have a window kit, fan grills and temp probe on their way, I will post the results when I get it done.

Before I made the duct I had an 80mm sunon fan there. That side fan and 80mm front fan were intake and top and rear 80mm fans were exhaust. I had really good airflow and great temps. But then one day I decided to try the duct thing. I measured to within about 3/8" of fan on hsf and then cut the pvc pipe down to fit. That left me enough clearance to remove side panel without any problems and yet give a clear intake for the hsf to pull in cool ambient air. I then reassembled and temp did drop by 1c but more importantly, it's one less fan that I have running and therefore less noise. Less noice and better temp = :thumbsup: in shuki's book!

Ok i got some pics but they are from a webcam(really shity)

Alot of the lighting effects cannot be seen with a webcam so i didnt bother taking any without room lights or glow only but in real life its awsome to see in its blue red glow colors.
Its all hand made (no kits) and the only tools i had was a jig-saw and drill with
big hole attatchments ....oh and alot of paint.

MY FIRST MOD

BTW the page is a real hurry job so please dont comment on it...lol

WyreTheWolf · Aug 19, 2002, 06:43 PM

Pretty nice there GR! Looks really good.... but isn't green kind of ... ummm.... I don't know AMDish? Since you are running Intel Blue fits better. Just my $0.02

Aug 19, 2002, 07:07 PM

Well the case can easily be fitted with an AMD soon..

Only cause they cheaper ...lol

WyreTheWolf · Aug 19, 2002, 07:07 PM

AH! I see
