Need a Site

redwings0921 · Aug 31, 2008

I am going to custom build a case from scratch. Does anyone know a good site where i can everything that i need. That includes materials, fans, maybe a fan controller, a power switch, etc and just anything else that would make for an awesome case

Maybe a few can help you like MKmods or even VDC but people be able to help you much more if you let them know were your from.

I'd imagine he's from Michigan!

What a challenge: finding out where you're from.

For EU, visit Caseking : http://www.caseking.de

For US (but offers international shipping) it's Sidewinder: http://www.sidewindercomputers.com

I think some materials can be bought from Fry's in the US, find yourself some gear here: http://www.cyberdruidpc.com

edit: are there any other sites. i want something that has all different kinds of power buttons, drive racks etc

Because ALL Europeans speak and write German. i love it when people outside Europe lump different countries together and think we speak one language.

Caseking ships all over EU, it's completely irrelevant if it happens to be Caseking GmBH. The Main Page is offered in English. That's where commonsense wins over trivialising an issue.

Chryonn · Aug 31, 2008

yeah the main page is in English, but when i want to look at something in detail, BAM! it's in German, sure they ship all over, that's not the point.

Sites

I usually use Tigerdirect.com
I find what I need there...already have an account established...

Jeno · Sep 1, 2008

i have been building myself a case although its only half finished i have most of the ingredients i need right here:
wood + screws (from hardware store)
back part and drive holders out of old case (from the dump)
switches, led's and pcb ( from local electronics store)
fans (old psu fans out of pus's from dump; and 120mm fans ordered with 9600gt + e8400 back in may)

getting all the parts for my case is the easiest part of the whole process IMO.
its very important you have a good idea of what your gonna make before you order stuff!!!! <--- that was one of my mistakes
good luck :toast:

newegg.com offers a nice selection of stuff as well as buy.com and believe it or not, radioshack!

Are we talking speakers or are we talking computers....
If you want nice speakers I suggest going directly to the manufacturer...like...

Not like they don't have pictures, not like they don't display product names, not like specifications can't be Google searched, not like the site isn't intuitive, not like you can't use Google site translation. That still doesn't validate why Europeans shouldn't shop from there, English is as much 'optional' to them as German. Besides, with no site suggestions on this thread, picking on someone else's suggestion and arguing on it, now that's trolling.

Weren't you the one who said:

Because ALL Europeans speak and write German.....

....so Europeans should logically have no problems shopping there.

Revel in the glory.

The front page has every shop you'll ever need, and all the case modders from TPU are in there.
