Case Mod - In Progress White Antec 300 - Updated, got a PSU from a mate !

What a thread! Fantastic work so far. Can't wait to see the case finished. Well done mate. Looking superb!

 

I am gonna order some blue fans for the rest of the case tomorrow, should really make it epic

 

Id go with white enermax or orange Xigmatecs if it was me.
Like the little touches dude nice one.

 

I went by a very simple rule. Everything had to alternate between white and orange, so when the case was white, everything else had to be orange of course

 

very cool looking.. i like it alot

 

Very nice picarro.
I love the colours

 

Thanks Picarro, very useful info

good luck with finishing the project

 

thanks for all the praise guys

I am thinking of a radical new design for a WC reservoir, even though I have NO parts for the computer yet, and I am probably not gonna get any, but who cares

 

Looks good, wondering though why so many don't apply any filler when they sand down to bare metal?

 

I didnt have any filler, and this project was not meant to be very serious. If I get my summer job (crossing fingers), I will sand it down again, and probably pay an autoshop to have it painted right.

But ATM, I dont wan't to dig into my savings to get this done. I have my eyes on a 50" plasma too, and that is NOT cheap when I want 1080p and Mpeg 4 tuner :s

 

I was dubious at first, but white and orange (I'm a black/orange fan) is growing on me.

Looking forward to seeing it finished!

 

More photos please .

 

Will do. Just need to get some more blue fans , havent gotten around to ordering them yet :s

 

great project! love the colors. but why not orange+white fans?

 

I had 2 blue and one I could easily mod blue lying around, so no point in going for orange fans.. This had to be a low cost build

 

got it. its a pity, xigmatek fans have awesome orange blades and white leds, they are good fans too, and dont cost too much. But i understand you, i'm in the same situation as yours

 

I am thinking of buying some orange LEDs and simply swithching the LEDs in the fans. I have looked at it, and it should be possible. Even with my limited soldering skills.

 

yep thats possible for sure, and its not that difficult to do. maybe 2 orange and 2 white leds per fan? you could customize it.

 

Can you please tell me how you sanded your case?(I mean which grit)

 

I used grit 180, and a powersander. And then I used grit 800 wet.
