To view this case mod, go here.



Specs:
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ @2.6GHz
ATI X800GTO @ 560/570
ASUS K8N4 -E Deluxe
Danger Den Maze 4 equipped watercooling

Mods:
Side and top windows/frames, custom front panel, partially external watercooling and a paint job

This is my first attempt at a big mod, and still needs a bit of work to the interior and the power/reset switches need a little more attention.

Lol good one b, I respect anyone who can buy parts and put together a sophisticated machine such as a computer some people can’t even install a hard drive buddy. Nice case though people who don’t know better would look at it and laugh saying you got an old thing.
 
Honestly?

A+ mod. Creative and fun, and a nice radiator housing worked into the theme. I don't think anyone would mistake it for an old slow PC though, with the obvious watercooling and giant window.

We need some clearer pics and more of them though, I really want to see the detail pelase!
 
looks like a salvage operation.

I like it!! U gets a 10 from me!
 
Whilst I don't like the look of the final product (just not my cup of tea) I repect the amount of work that has gone into this.

Good work Johnynoi :)
 
Good work there, looks really good, and it's definately an interesting idea.
I'd love to see some more shots, of interior and stuff.

Anyhu, I'll give it an 8.
 
I Like Your Rusting Effect

good job!!! I've done a similar mod, check out my BIOHAZARD thread.

I've done the same type of rusting effect. I was wondering how you did yours? I really like how you did the seams and around screws and such.

did you paint the effect or was it a weathering compond?

again, great job.

I rated it 9/10. For advanced creativity and overall execution.
Looks Great! I'm really digging the weathered look it seems to be the new case fashion.
