Your links don't seem to lead to pics, the url of a link to a picture would end in the file-type such as picture.jpg, but yours end in numbers. Where are your pictures uploaded to?

Very nice! A computer in a suitcase makes for some nice portability. :D

Quite impressive, especially for a first mod! Bravo, and welcome to TBCS!

EDIT: By the way, I highly recommend you name your mod for a couple of reasons. One, it's like a ship, no captain would sail out to sea in a boat with no name, the name is like a bond ya know? Second, I move a copy of all completed projects into the visual gallery, and without a name it will get filed under "My First Try". Want to give it a name?

Well, at first I was going to say that it wasn't very creative, and then it hit me, "brief". You said you built that in 8 hrs, I'd consider that a brief period of time. So it actually fits pretty damned good!

That looks great for a first mod, especially with the amount of time that you spent on it.

Nice mod. Does the case have enough ventilation? As I can only see a fan in the top and presumably a fan for the psu.

I didn't see a cutout for the PSU fan, though.

the psu has a couout in the bottom of the case. and also a side fan..so in total its tree fans on the case..think thats enough..

cant see the sidedoor vent on this pic

and the top fan take the air out..side fan air in..and the psu fan just cool the psu..also i have a cutout for the gpu where it blows the air from the gpu in the back. i built it for my wife..so its only gonna be used for surfing the web..it will never do any hard stuff..

GTI

yea the case followed one of my gpus..have two hd4870x2 one watercooled and one with fans..but im not satisfied with those cards like nvidia better..had two gtx260 in sli a month ago..and they performed better than one hd4870x2 card..

Is that a sticker on the front or a window or what?

GTI

its a sticker or a logo that was on the case when i got it..i just cut the orange part out and mounted a 120mm fan with blue leds on its back side..if that is what you was asking about
