Show Off Your Rig

[Gary_Busey]

Very nice, I like that case.

So as promised, here's my mini-mod I did this afternoon.

Problem: 2 open 3.5" drive bays.
What I don't have: Money.
What I do have: an old car speaker grill, an extra fan grill, some rubber cement, some tin snips and a brain.

So I got to thinking last night on how to fill that gap, looked around my room for awhile, and came up with this mod:

Not the cleanest mod, but it works and it looks pretty damn good if I do say so myself. It's actually functional too, air is sucked in by the two back fans.

Your gonna need a bigger power supply with that mod. That old car speaker grill came from a '48 Plymouth I believe. You need one of those sun visors from a '53 Chevy on there. Or at least tinted glass. I'm going to post pics of my rig when Cannon sends back my Power Shot 300. Manufacturer defect. I'm expecting the good people over there to send me a better model with a little more power to it's shot. Mine took great blanks and I'm sure you don't want me to bore you to death with those 100% blacked out shots. Your case looks good with the rubber cement and all. I'll post my mine soon.

I enjoy seeing pictures of other's rigs and case mods, so I'm creating a thread for anyone who wants to to post pictures of their rigs and cases, and answer/ask and questions anyone might have. I'll start.

you took a gateway case and beautified it... excellent





This is from last week, before I took out my 2 x 7800GTX's... I just checked my tracking number... my eVGA 8800GTS 640 has arrived at my doorstep... C'MON 6:00!! I WANT TO GO HOME!!! No pics of the rig running at the moment... i have my tri-monitor stand on it's way (should get here in 2 days)... waiting for July so I can bag a Q6600 and a TripleHead2Go Digital... yea....

and don't bag on my PSU... it's going out the door next month for a PC P&C 750 Silencer... chyea.

Please tell me you've done something to better the airflow in your case by now 😱

I'll get some pic's of my setup on here soon 😀 Mines not blingy, but it's clean and simple how I like it. Keep all the sweet pics coming ppl I love it!

RTFM,
Kick the dog, not the case when you get beat in a game.

Nice colours really, it makes for a change. I don't know why but most fan case with led end up being blue. I know there are other colours out there but they are not used that often.

I get mine from eBay, but any computer hardware site will have LED fans. Just do a Google search.

 

[goldragon_70]

Anyone know if there are yellow LED fans, and Yellow Cathiods?

I usually get my modding stuff from Frozen CPU. Their prices are very similar to Newegg (with what they share as merchandise) but they specialize in custom mod gear.

As you asked so nicely :lol: .

Nesting?















What?!

 

[Pompeii]

Well, it would seem my rig doesn't hold a candle to the majority of yours. Then again, the dust and wires don't help either. Here are some pics, specs in sig:

Here is another:

And a picture of the insides:

These pictures remind me that I need to clean up my room...
