    Nice transformation!
    Especially like the ventilation for the hdd/ssd - makes me think of my old cooler master stacker...

    Cool build! Carbon vinyl goes well. Like the simplistic design too.

    What exactly is Foam board and how did you make that custom Motherboard cover from it? Looks very professionally made. Neat work indeed!

    Can pick up foam board up in hobbycraft, or dumpster diving near a sign makers (think estate agent to let/for sale signs) or in thicker sizes for insulation in wicks etc.

    Nice clean build btw :)

    Really well done. I like projects like this, where old and bad cases become modern and cool PCs
