Made some wings for the door in plexi, also spray painted the hinges



Here i glued a small magnet on the inside of the door, so the door is closed by a magnet (hard to see tho)



This is how it looks with the door open (fits to a mm perfect)



First i cut-out a plexi part (cut-out 2 80mm blowholes and glued 2 90degrees plexi plates, then i cut-out the original grill of the case and fitted the new one in, after lots of fitting, sawing and mesuring, this is how it looks by day:



Behing the fans you see my dual-rad, this one is screwed on plexi and the plexi it self is screwed on a cut-out that i made in the front of the case, more pics about this later



By night: (much nicer)



total picture by day:



Here you see my dual-rad hanging onto plexi, in the front of the case, the blue glow from the fans shines through it, the darker it gets, the better
My waterpomp and reservoir are also in




Picture from the bottom of my new ocz modstream (blue led)
Cables need to be sorted out just yet



Here you see the psu's cables that are also round like the ide-cable and uv-blue reactive
A shame one of the cables got stripped, but then again i bought this psu for the same price as i sold my old crappy one
You can also see my brand new memory from geil that gave my budget a big dent



Here's a picture from the back, were you see a blue glow from the psu



Also modded the motherbord by drawing uv-lines all over, and ive treathed the condensators with uv-nailpaint, so it glows light blue under uv
Also sleeved the little fan uv-blue




In the top i installed a molex splitter with blue leds (but to much cable mess up there, thats gotta change!!!
Thanks to the sponser for the molex splitter

Top, don't look at the dust



Side:



Casefeet are under and the cables are hidden under the mirror
Thanks again to my sponsor for the case feet

Wow, that looks great. I especially like the look of the front panel.

 

no more comments

 

This casemod would be _HOT_
....

in 1998

 

I like it. All my running mods have blue LEDs or CCFL in them somewhere. 1998 comment aside - I would show it off to my friends.

That's what you keep saying, i would like to see you're first mod to compare...

Grtz

 

lol, his project looks almost exactly the same, except it's watercooled.

Anyway, nice work. It's a bit generic, not much new ideas to see, but i don't think that's what you were going for.

 

don't mind him, keep up the good work .

 

Lol.
First of all, don't take my comment so negatively. I'm not saying it's crap :s
I notice you clearly have some modding skills, but all I'm saying is that with that amount of skill, you could probably make an even more awesome casemod...

This is my first real casemod I made three years ago, as a 15-year old.
And for your information; my first casemod would look good, in 1998

@Xtrafresh: why does it look the same? :s

 

Maybe i'm not lacking skills, but i'm sure lacking tools and space

All i have is a dremel, just a week ago, so i haven't even used my dremel... ,a power-drill and a heat gun

It's easy to say make some new feet, but i don't have the place to put any big tools (kolomboormachine, lintzaag, draaibank, spanvijs enzo...) (don't know the translations)

I'm living in a small appartment, so if i spray paint something in the evening i have to breed in the gasses all night, if you understand what i'm saying...

My next case will be a casebuild, all i'm doing now is gaining some experience, while i'm at it i can enter a competition just for fun

I'm moving this year (cause i'm going to buy me a house) then i don't have problems building cases

So i hope you understand my intentions, allthou you are right about the imbus bolts
