Wooden case

To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
Upgraded to Intel E6400
2 gigs ddr2 800
Asus 9400gt 1gig (HDMI Version)
Msi G31 Main Board
Gigabyte 450 Watt
Seagate 1TB
Microsoft IR remote
Roll up rubber keyboard

Mods:
Created high airflow with 3 80mm fans 2 input (1 on each side) with filters.
Going to drop the fans voltage as they can get noisy.
I ran the MB tray on a draw runner so access is easy to the unit.

I like how the pespex top turned out just a pitty i dont see it much as it goes in a cabinet.
Also used 2 blue leds behind the knobs(1 is the power the other is the reset.)representing power and HDD.
Turned a chest of draws into a TV cabinet(cut the legs off put bun feet, made the top draw into a shelf but it still closes, then cut a hole in the back to get to cabilng, I need to sort the cabling out.)
I want to do my HAF932 next!!!!

Love it, I've designed my case but still haven't started building yet; you gave me the spark I needed nice job man.
maybe try to build it with Aluminum and give it a sexy color that's what I may go for(Just an idea) 8/10 because of the wood, maybe in 5 mins of thinking I would give you a 10/10.

Very cool. I love stylish boxes, and you're even using air filters to keep out the dust! You thoughtful guy you... Real men usually clean their PCs daily with brushes made from man-beards just to show their love for machines, but I guess you have more important things to do!

Hi thanks for your comment.
Just to let you know the filters do a great job, the pics u saw where of it after 18 months of running in a cabinet and i didnt even brush it.
I know what u mean that real men brush there PCs.(I have a HAF and thats alot of work to keep clean.)
I have posted more pics and will keep doing so.
