To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
AMD Athlon 64 +3400
1.5 GB PC 3200
ATI Radeon X850
Ultra Modular PSU
5000+ MP3s

Mods:
Bought case used from local computer parts store. Cost - $10.00 Cut a window as big as the case would allow. Cut and installed plexiglass side window. Pulled steel mesh from front bezel and cut two holes in it to maximize airflow through case. Installed two 80mm, blue LED fans in front bezel and one 80mm tricolor fan in rear. The mobo, CPU, HDD, PSU, VGA, etc, are all leftovers from my last gaming rig. I have the sound card rigged up to my Kenwood reciever in my workshop. This is my working jukebox. I just fire up Windows Media Player and add what I feel like listening to while I work on the next case mod...

Pictures aren't the best. Let's just say, I'm not exactly OCD when it comes to cleaning that particular bench... (wink)

Thanks DrunkenMafia, I appreciate the feedback.

The front has potential, but I had to ding you for those mismatched & sticking out! drives.

Pretty clean on the inside, and I like your braided drive cables. Where did you get those?

Overall, it just needs some cosmetic TLC to get it's ranking up. Fix the drives, and I'll revise my score.

Hey Glendor, thanks for the feedback. The braided cables are from Ultra. They came with the modular PSU. The drives are a bit of an eye-sore but they all work and they cost me nothing. It's certainly not my best work but I figured I'd post it and see what people think... Pretty cool what you can do in a weekend if you put your mind to it....

Yeah, it's an e-machine drive.... All the parts used to make this system are from other machines. This was a freebie mod.....
