Looking For Old, Unwanted PC Cases

MrPr3f3ct · Sep 21, 2007, 12:38 AM

Hey Folks,
If anyone has an old PC that they are going to dispose of, please let me know. I'm looking, in particular, for cases.

R u willing to pay shipping? May be we can trade with those SO-DIMM u mentioned in my thread

MrPr3f3ct · Sep 21, 2007, 01:06 AM

I suppose that depends on what you've got.... Send me some pics?

suraswami · Sep 21, 2007, 01:29 AM

Its a brand new Black Linkworld ATX case. Its $25 + Shipping. If that will work.

Are you wanting to rip them apart for pieces or need them whole?

I'll take what I can get.... To give you an idea of what I'm doing with them, check here http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1039.html and here http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1040.html

What have you got for cases?

t_ski · Sep 21, 2007, 04:10 PM

I don't have anything available yet, but I might in a week or so. Nothing traditional, so I figured it might be better for parts.

Non-traditional huh? OK, now I'm intrigued. Could you be more specific?

Sorry to jack your thread, but I'm interested in the same stuff if anyone has anything open to offer. I have a similar thread somewhere as well.

If you have a similar thread, why don't you post on it? I went and checked out your rig in the gallery. Seems OK. You need to work on cable management. That spagetti really detracts from the overall appearance of the work. Feel free to go examine my work. You can find it here ----> http://www.techpowerup.com/gallery/1039.html

I'm looking for stuff to learn how to mod on. I don't want to ruin my case, I'd rather practice on something I can purchase cheap. My cable management is a lot better than in that pic. I have done some more stuff to it since that pic was taken.
