Project Name: The XICLE
Type: Build from Scratch
Start: May 5, 2008
Finish: June 31, 2008

I build this for the OCN Case Modding Competition 08 I won the Second Place and Unique Bonus Prize in the PRO category (Don't ask me why cuz I don't know :p) This was my first Custom Build and most challenging project so far.

I don't like to do things they same way other did things... so that why I make this Custom Case (The First Ever Round Working Computer Case) so I'll let you with the image the complete worklog is on OCN but I'll post all the image in most of the forum am registered. So enjoy this piece of work...

Remember don't doub to ask me anything and watch the complete video log on my youtube channel Here... http://youtube.com/newmodcity or the Video Log Here: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=0E6DEEEA840D7E50

Man, I love what you've done with that PSU, but I'm afraid you're polishing a turd - that's one of the cheapest PSUs I've ever seen, and I'm a bit concerned for the hardware you're putting into this case.

Looks badass, though. No way would I have the patience to file down the edges of the rounded openings.

Indeed!!! but I'll tell a lil secret sometimes the most expensive hardware are not the best... This PSU have been working around the clock for about 6 months... I have more expensive PSU that only work for 3 months... You see don't believe on fake review or fake promo... this's 450w PSU enough to power any system nobody and I mean nobody use 450w on full load... I have seen ppl with 1000w PSU $100+ and they don't even use 200w of power... :D:D:D

Tell me about it this project was a pain in the neck but I try to manage to fill everything up... Thanks man...!!! :D:D:D

[SXRguyinMA]

you do plan on putting a fan back onto that video card, correct? :think:

[Jabyaeye]

Nice work!

My wife would definitely not like me sanding, painting, cutting, drilling, etc in the house though. :)

[DonT-FeaR]

nice idea man

[masbuskado]

you do plan on putting a fan back onto that video card, correct? :think:

mmm... Not Really cuz I have to let go the 9600gt I replace it with a low profile cuz the side panel didn't close and this was a deadline project only 2 Month to complete the whole thing!!! but everything work fine without the side panel the card and setting everything was wonderful... :D


Nice work!

My wife would definitely not like me sanding, painting, cutting, drilling, etc in the house though. :)

Mine either... but this is NY and you have to do it inside something... :D but safety first... open all window and grab a old fan and you're set!!! :D


nice idea man

Thanks man!!! :D :D :D
