Back Open Bottom of Aopen MB (gray cable is for LCD) CDRW side side/front (J shaped black thing is foam to hold drive steady other side is an L: my initials) too many wires! need to figure out what to do with them all. close up of DVD side Memory heatsinks of ATI AIW 8500DV (great card, I love it) Top (looks better in person camera flash makes colors look odd) top and back (blue thing at bottom is lcd cable can't fit under mb, need to fix it somehow) ATI card, no back on Back on (yea I know it sucks I messed up on all the ports, I am working on a new one) Fan right over ports exhausts all hot air: case temps with back on are around 28C no load and 31C under load!!
another front pic (ports for mic, headphones and usb work great) My tasteless fan cover lol The L Blue square is temp power button looking for a cool new one. I spent hours sanding and polishing all the edges to make them clear (in real life you can see right through them, crystal clear) notice that HD window fits all around the HD edge, I spent a whole day getting it to fit. Hi I use the top HD as a mirror in the mornings Anybody have an idea what to do with that cable? The hot stuff Fan in just the right spot I had to get a 36" IDE cable to go from front HD to back cd drive Thanks for looking! A BIG thanks goes out to Pflamingo for hosting these pics!!! and putting up with my stupidity -- sorry) Thanks man! I hope you enjoyed them -- out.
yeah, how the hell do you do that hdd thing without ****ing up the drive? how thin was the DVD drive once you stripped it down?
ya can see alot of work has gone into that superb project dude! id hate to install or uninstall a bit of hardware though. it looks jam packed!
I just took the over off the HDD, put it in a clean tuperware container, and cut the window. I put it back together and it worked fine. The DVD and CD drive were not that much thinner with the cover off, I cut the cover and had to use the barring in it so that made most dimensions stay the same.
wicke,d i might give that a go if i get a new hard driv e some time as well!! it has to create some error caus ei thas ot get some dust on it or something
