http://www.etginc.com/~jen2sam/images/Mar04%2312.JPG

Celeron 1400 in a premodded case, GF4 Ti4200, 2 nics, one Firewire, LED fan, need silver spraypaint for the drives, no floppy (I HATE floppies with a passion), 15" Sony Trinitron monitor, Altec Lansing speakers that I never use cause I always have my headphones on, Logitech optical mouse, Microsoft KB...generic desk.

i3OSS · 03-04-2003, 09:16 PM

true, i hate floppies but i have to use them once in a while...not with XP pro, i just got it and its a lot faster load up than 2000 pro... Just get a Silver permanent marker.

Cricket · 03-11-2003, 08:57 AM

I'm not a case modder, but I'm curious as to why there aren't more pics of modded cases in this thread. I just thought there'd be way more case pics posted here by now

.

Spyda · 03-11-2003, 09:09 AM

i think a lot of people were going to, but then caught sight of i3OSSes case and then looked at theirs, and kicked it

i3OSS · 03-11-2003, 03:13 PM

oh, come on please just post. i would like to see more cases i havent seen, even if its onlly a blow hole in the front.

velker · 03-11-2003, 03:18 PM

im trying to think of a cool window design, not just one of those plain rectangles and such for a chieftec. I don't want it to be a logo or something, because im trying to go for a nice techy look but keep the window big enough to see through easily. Heres what im thinking i might do:

what do you guys think, any other ideas?

blackhawk · 03-11-2003, 09:00 PM

I never knew we had so many kids my age. I'm 15 and I'm currently BUILDING not working on saving the money, BUILDING a system with a chieftec full tower dragon with window, 2200+ AMD, TT Silent PSU, a really crappy K7S5A motherboard, 512 MB DDR Ram, 64 MB nVIDIA GE force 4, etc. I cut a lot of grass during the early spring and summer. The pics will be hear soon guys.

LaTeR....

i3OSS · 03-11-2003, 10:33 PM

velker it looks like its a street to your computer lol, it looks cool but wheres the root behind the picture?
by logo do you mean anything like transformer or the superman sign?
also wouldnt that be really hard to cut?

BassMaster4000 · 03-11-2003, 10:39 PM

I just finished my computer so I will be posting a pic soon.

bleem · 03-11-2003, 11:20 PM

Heres an early pic of my top window, cd drive edges are now cleaned up, lined with black electrical tape and the acess light is wired to under the window so it lights up

**Force Flow** · 03-11-2003, 11:27 PM

Woah! Is that a CD drive with a window?

bleem · 03-11-2003, 11:31 PM

yes

ill have to get up a pic of my side window, i do have a picture of my cpu fan (not premodded, wired led on myself.)

bleem · 03-11-2003, 11:36 PM

Err, Forgot to post pic

Jenni · 03-12-2003, 02:50 AM

Velker that looks like a cool idea to me. And I don't think it would be that hard to cut, I could do it with my Dremel in a few hours. Nothing really intricate there. I assume you're gonna use one big sheet of lexan/plexi and not a bunch of little ones, right?

ssahl · 03-12-2003, 04:50 AM

dont know if this counts but put it here cause of lack of posts

i3OSS · 03-12-2003, 09:44 AM

hey bleem, where did you get that cd rom?

velker · 03-12-2003, 04:55 PM

yep, just one plexi on the back

blackhawk · 03-15-2003, 07:44 PM

I said I would be finished soon, and I think this is good enough for a pic. NOTE: I am not finished moving around all the cables and place them right where I want them to be, so if it seems a little messy, my apologies.

Spyda · 03-16-2003, 04:10 AM

thats cool, i want to do something like tha except ill have a fan in the side and leave about an inch thick strip of metal running around where the fan is, then a strip right across the door so i can hid the wire

bleem · 03-18-2003, 12:37 AM

drive is a cendyne IV 48x12x48 , little on the loud side, but really the only newer cd drive that ive been able to find to do the window mod.

wschino · 03-18-2003, 02:51 AM

I need some new drives that match...hehe. Well here are the pics. There is still more wiring work to be done.

Thanks i3OSS. I have no idea what brand it is...I bought it on eBay for $75 shipped and it came with a 450W PSU, a red & blue LED clear case fan, and a power supply tester.

i3OSS · 03-19-2003, 07:22 PM

nice, but i dont trust ebay.
what brand is the psu? i cant make it out in the pic

i3OSS · 03-19-2003, 07:33 PM

sorry to tell you but, i found ur case wschino and i think you got ripped.

wschino · 03-19-2003, 07:43 PM

I was very skeptical at first about buying it on eBay but it's been working fine for me. The PSU brand is Rhycom....I don't this it's a very good one. i3OSS the link your showing is for a different case. And how much is shipping for it? I paid $50 plus $25 for shipping with a some extras. I wouldn't say I got ripped...I got what I paid for.

i3OSS · 03-19-2003, 07:48 PM

yea i noticed when i compared them id say you got a fair deal.
im just so mad at ebay.
