Originally a Dell XPS 510, it had the Ferrari Testarossa look with all the fins and the red, so I went with it. 1st I converted it to ATX, painted the MB tray, added Ferrari Decals and badge to case. Cut real carbon fiber to dress the internal chambers. Add two fan controllers to give it more of a dash look, one with LCD (4 temp sensors, including h2o temps), Bulgin power switch and toggle kill switch, front USB 3.0, THICK power cable to match the case.For the internals, I water-cooled the CPU, an Intel i5, the GPU, a GTX1060 mm radiator (copper) with ducting in front, a 80mm radiator (dual copper),12v pump and tube reservoir. Its powered by a 900w Antec PSU with all devices custom wired (except mb) and I used corrugated tubing to give it that engine bay electrical look. 16GB memory, bdie 3800 cl 14.
 
LOL. I meant that Ferrari only has electric cars for children.
 
As an XPS 730 owner - I approve. This is fantastic.
 
Pretty sweet. The usb "key with keychain in the ignition" is a nice touch. I've always enjoyed well repurposed/re-imagined oem gear.
 
Would love to see more interior shots that showed in more detail how you gutted all the proprietary Dell stuff and made it ATX compatible.

Ill have to dig. I did the atx mod years ago. I am updating a bunch of stuff this week, so I will see if I can find some photos.
