Hi, Well the story is easy, i work in a computershop in Emmen, The Netherlands we had a shuttle SN41G in our shop as a demo everybody liked it but no one wanted to buy it So i took is to create my dvd/divx videorecorder and lan pc I started modding before i took the first complete picture this wil be in it: Shuttle SN41G AMD Athlon 2800+ 1 Gb DDR 400 dual channel 160 Gb Maxtor HDD ide NEC 2500 @ 2510 DVD burner Sapphire 9600 Pro @ XT Terratec Cinergy 400 tvcard Sunbeam blue CCFL 20 cm Sunbeam green laserleds vantec green/blue uv fan blue cable mesh + green connectors. ok picture time The shuttle getting undressed I have meshed all the internal cable including front connectors of USB etc. Bit hard to get the shrinkstuff (whats is it named in english ?) over the headers All cables done, on the left my ati radeon 9600 pro@xt i have replaced the fan of the 9600 with a nice vantec blue led thingy.. and meshed the cable And then dissaser !! when i mounted the fan back on i slip and the ati said *crack* thats one down I wanted "under mobo light" so took some laserleds and looked what i could do Even without the housing they are to high So i took al the extra glue off and heated it so isolate the complete laserled with as less glue as possible Artic Silver on cpu and chipset Installed the memory heatspreaders And playd with my cam and the sun i have to get it to work to do some on the casing.. took a zalman northbridge cooler from the store and installed it And simply taped the laserleds to the case.. it just fits since i could wait to see if it would look nice place the mobo switched of the lights and got this as result Yeah ! Well since the 9600 pro is gone i orderd a 9800pro... arrived today and.. look a r360 (9800xt) core thats nice 9800 with the vantec + memorycooling installed.. i have left the shim on this time and a peice of paper still fits between the shim and the vantec...so almost 100% contact between card and fan and no more cracking put the mobo back in place and installed the 9800 and the tvcard.. they are a bit close have think about a sollution mabe a small peice out of the tvcard bracket Well thats about it for now.. i have to mesh the psu and have to think about a design for the window and cooling hole at the side of the 9800
the green lighting looks excellent what brand 9800pro is that? i'm looking for one with a r360 core atm
i have one with a r360 core, here is one very similar to mine, just look for that box looking cooler http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=14-102-361&depa=1 this is the same one i have except i bought mine a while ago so it has only 128 mb insted of 256 like this one,
Nice glowing motherboard and general standard of work Great photos too, you've obviously spent a good amount of time capturing all the stages of your mod. Top stuff
Nice love the motherboard lighting, looks awesome. Really does look smart. And it serves as another focal point. If i were you. I'd quote G-Gnomes quote and frame it You know you want to.
thanx Well thanx 4 all the comments.. Actually its pretty funny i always working on something and forget to make pictures.. hhehe but i think i'm on a roll this time This morning i have dismounted the front panel.. i'm not going to make a full glowing thing i like this to look standard but when you flip a switch pictures i took will be uploaded this evening... this evening is the shop open so after worths picture time
meschien Green Devil een leuke nick voor je case? (translation)maby Green Devil is a nice nick for your case?
Call me a noob at some stuff but looking at the 9600 Pro it looks fine. Is it my guess that the corner of the core broke? The sleeving looks real nice in the shuttle. I will be following this one... good work
I find it funny that everbody likes the mobo glow.. i think i'll email sunbeam to see what they think of it. The 9600 has just finished 5x 3dmark and looks fine so i'll sell it I haven't got much done today because to much to do @ work... next week i have 1 week off to finish it
