Like the new concept. I'm amazed that motherboard fits in there with the lid closed.

Yeah the original drive bays had to go though! I don't think any aftermarket (non-AMD) coolers will fit if i decide to go that route
W/c is pretty much a no-go as I don't want the case to get bigger!

Second go at a rear panel. Will be painted or frosted. The panel needs to lose ~2mm on the lefthand side to fit properly :/

Scratch build smaller or persevere with the Dell case?
I'm putting it to the community to vote. Having a go at designing a new case - is it weird I do my best design work intoxicated and cranking dubstep? |

Updates!
After umming and ahhing over the board and many different designs over @ losias.net, I have started again! I am basing the design on this rendering by a deviantart member: http://modelight.deviantart.com/art/...-case-96180735 Hard at design/mod work: ![]() Rear panel with mesh (need to trim so it's not over expansion slots/psu bay) ![]() Front panel - need to figure out how to do the fan grille/finalise hole placement! The rectangle cut out on the side is for the slim optical. ![]() Rear panel fitted (needs some adjusting but almost there! ![]() BTW The first pic is my son using Project Aurora. XD Mods: Please don't shuffle this to Project logs just yet - need to create a tidier, better organised thread for the full project - this one is a shambles, as was aurora :/ |
