Case Mod - In Progress GuardianStorm's FS2 (PS2 PC) - 27/02/08 - Finished!

Funny someone should revive this thread today, as this weekend i modified the FS2 slightly; it now has usb sockets in the PS2's front holes, and the cabling has been re soldered/shortened.

It still needs more cooling though, one 30mm fan in the back really isnt enough, but there is no space for bigger fans (tried to fit the three fans out of a Corsair Dominator Airflow module into the case; didn't fit )

 

That looks like a pretty damn clean mod, good job


Hard luck on the fan though

 

Wow, excellent work. What use are you putting it to now?

I've seen someone else try this before but it was no where nearly as well executed as this...

 

I use it to play my audio, using Foobar2000, an ATI Remote wonder control, a usb Audigy 2NX and a nice GUI i wrote to tie it all together.

I tried running XBMC on it, but the inbuilt gpu is not up to it and XMBC doesn't seem to like 7.1/my Audigy 2NX

 

Damn, really? I was hoping to get XBMC on a similar system... I suppose I'll be needing an extra PCI graphics card then

Did you get any problems at all getting an OS on it? I was thinking either Ubuntu or perhaps even XP...
