Case Mod - In Progress project "frattura"

In the meantime that the glue to dry we pass to the disassembly of components from ovecchio me pc, motherboard, and heat sink which i had to modify the bracket because of the great asus has done a bracket that does not enter into this motherboard despite both also asus, that wonder of engineers that have



Because the heat sink should not be mounted as in the photo above but how do I see in this



Here's the offending bracket



It rests on the heatsink



And then track with the sparks



And this is the result



Prepared the motherboard support





Test FILTHY sink





Stay tuned

 

opps The glue has dried







I have started to cut the curves of the panel, which will be on the motherboard, on this photo, and only a sketch must be finished



But let us go forward with the up yesterday I completed the excavation of the cpu heat sink and the first video card, it's a pity i had hoped that the heat sink of the vga saw better anyway here are the photos











Excavation finished vga





]



I do a little digging up second vga and small excavation for network card and the on board of the mobo is burned out







I don't know if you can see it is very small but there was also need for her of the excavation



I had to remake the side panel on the right because the curves left were unsuitable to the other panel as you can see in the photo





Taken up a panel of a old houses, putty ...



... Sanded ...



And cut, thus it should be much better









I started to do the excavations for power cables here under the two holes for the two vga



I have also finished the two panels on the right







Test the case without hardware


stay tuned

 

Keep it up . So far it looks dam good.

 

lookin good........

 

Damn this looks cool! Keep it up!

 

thanks a lot guys

Small advance of sleeving and draft available cables inside the computer case (i still have finish) amalgamation of the cables inside the power supply box, i had to overcome in this way to gain space because the cover came out of my a little short, the clips will be changed from white to black







and finally, I started grouting the top
front, so to speak what I had taken a hammer time ago



I sanded and polished cuts plexi orange and the transparent rear panel of the mobo and pedestals, attacked the mask of the logo and buttons





and began to cover the edges for painting



I gave a primer



and I adapted to a "camp oven" to dry the primer



here it is finally painted: ClapClap: of course I still have to learn a lot about painting, and the result is not what I dreamed of but still very acceptable so I'm happy with what I managed to do at least remedy this step is finished



stay tuned for the final stages of the mod

 

settle the mask of the front, these holes do not let them so true?



I recovered the old front of the case to cut the net on the side





tested on the mask but they were a bit 'high and then I cut them to bend in a small excavation






here is the mesh insert folded



two points of hot glue



and this is the picture of the front as it was returned



then I dedicated to the fan cover / power supply



prepared for cuts



I made some holes for the saw blade



first cut



and carvings made ​​for the power supply





and .... done



let's take a nice shot of lime and fine sandpaper and here is the final result







stay tuned

 

I go along with the latest processing

I made the front for milling



milling









and here it is the front



and ... front with logo and buttons for a global vision



I made two small circuits to connect parallel the various LEDs and LED strip around the case

primary circuit current that will lead to another also
circuit



second circuit



and finally I wired the writer, was a challenge solder the wires on the button and led smd but it all went well



excavation for lighting



led strip connected



test



inclusion in the panel



and ....













the rear panel of the left,



LED strips inserted



and this is the back of the front with the LED strip inserted



entering the burner and part of the panel



illuminated front





these days I rearranged all the lighting and this is the last picture of the structure with the power supply and fan cover lighted cover, it is not what I expected but that's okay



I placed both power circuits of LEDs and placed in their seats

above the basket hd



and under the feeder



final settlement of the front with sleeving and assembled with the structure



proof lighting ...



ready for assembly



stay tuned :mrgreen:

 

Congrats, that lighting looks really nice!

 

The black and orange is simply stunning- especially when lit! Great job!
