    Uhm, i'm not sure if i understand what do you mean - 'But will you be able to see the blue on the mobo?' Well, you meant a windowed sidepanel or something like that? I was thinking of applying a plain white sticker on the blue part of the mobo heatsink - here

    Sounds good mate, but how did you make the stickers on the fans? Just curious.

    Oh sry i forgot to tell you my bad :eek:
    i bought an adhesive paper (sticky from one side and regular white paper on the other side) but i picked up the one with the pre-outlined 4 centimeter circles (just the right size for the fan sticker), then just a few minutes with logo+print. And i bought it at Canon - copy/print/office, you should find that too somewhere near you. hope it helps.

    BTW, the chipset heatsink on your board... I don't know if it would be possible as you'll have to get exactly the right paint, but as all the lines come out on the heatsink, what about painting the grey lines black and the blue lines white?

    It would be a challenge... But...:dremel:

    Yay! Another 300.

    When you painted it, did you separate all the panels? I've been looking at mine and wondering if it's even a good idea. The I/O shiled has those weird holes that looked crimped onto the rear panel and I fear I shouldn't mess with them, thoughts?

    the the back I/O shield could be easily taken out, altough i'm not entirely sure what do you mean by those crimped holes.

    If you look at the rear of the case it's got two pieces: the rear panel covering the entire back and the I/O assembly (with the PCI slots and I/O opening). I was curious if you had separated the two pieces because there are no rivets connecting the two but they are two pieces. It's those holes that go from the rear panel and grab into matching holes on the I/O assembly.

    Since you hadn't, I'll just leave it and no toy with it.
