AM2 Sempron 3000+
AsRock ALiveNF6G-DVI
integrated GPU
2x512MB Corsair TWIN2X PC5400
Toshiba 40GB Sata 2.5"
more storage is attached as my mapped drives via network [~600GB]
same applies for DVDRW
wireless KB and mouse

G/F use it for learning, web and stuff

Will OC that thing once i find out how to set Vcore to 1.2V, mobo doesnt support Vcore changes for semprons...

Looks very cool!

Can't tell which way the fans are set-up to blow from the pictures, but if they're not blowing into the box, it would be a good idea to flip them over. Heat rises, so the fans blowing down won't help matters any. Blowing up will help the head dissipate up through that awesome hole in the top. I'm sure you probably already thought of that, but just in case... :)

Great custom case though. It really looks like it was professionally built.

That is unique. I love it. I have some pictures (as soon as I fix by card reader after my dog eat the cord) of my project with a water cooling pump housing sitting under a complete wooden case made from maple. My newest one will be made from Cherry wood.:up:

[jdbnsn]

That is a really cool mod, I love wood cases and yours looks great! Good work!

[Lairy Fiquid]

Love the way it just looks like a casual wooden cabinet
Great job :up:

[Rincewind]

Wood-rulez, like that stuff too, nice finish but the cable connection is not that perfect?

[agnat]

Wow, + rep for you!
Looks great and the layout makes wire management a snap! I may have to end up copying you on this one!

Thanks,
Agnat

[xmastree]

Looks really nice, definitely a unique way to show off that bent heatsink... :rolleyes:

But, can I ask a stupid noob question? What's with that video card using only part of the slot? :?

Yup, i thought of that while i was planning the case, theyr set to blow up through the whole case, cooling down psu and hdd in lower and mobo/cpu in upper part.

many thanx, its nice to hear you like it/

Great job :up:
actually, that was the idea behind this build, a case to not stand out from kitchen furniture and be nice.

With that tini dimensions [15*32*28cm] im glad the cables arent visible when the door is closed...

:think: i will replace that thing with zalman flover-like sink, but must though aout some bracket to mount it to am2

and the card is converter that was supplied with board. Its nVidia 6100-430 chipset and the board has VGA connector onboard and this card is used for DVI-out of the chipset graphix.

Looks great man, very creative and the door looks awesome!

[intergalacticman]

that is definitly a work of art +rep

[LiTHiUM0XiD3]

lolz as a serious overclocker.... i would rly suggest u get a decent fan and heatsink on that puppy b4 u even think about o/cin it...... and lolz ASrock doesnt allow much for overclocking..... which is why it rly surprised me getting from 2.66Ghz to 3.4Ghz with a stock voltage...

[[MadMan]]

i know about the heatsink, but its so F' hard to find a am2 heatsink with <4cm height... better i find 1/2" copper plate and some older aluminium HS and make custom one...

[LiTHiUM0XiD3]

i'd say look into a custom heat pipe setup.... u can order heat pipes.... and copper blocks..... then all u gotta do is drill em out...

[XFOX]

simple and good looking project . i like it

[chaksq]

I like the wall mount PC idea, it is different and uncommon.

A cool addition to your setup would be to make a bracket to mount the keyboard and a trackball mouse to the wall as well.

[SSGM4DCOW]

nice wooden case looks very cool

[mellojoe]

Fantastic. Absolutely exceptional.

[[MadMan]]

no words can really tell the pleasure i feel whenever i read that such big modding comunity admire my work... thx

[Spacehonkey]

Don't know how I missed this build but like everything about it :eek:, except that triangle mirror next to it :down:. Just joking man, love the fact the case is not only made out of wood but that it's off the floor and mounted to the wall right above the monitor for everyone to admire your fine craftmenship :up:.

+REP for thinking out of the box.

[Andr0m3da]

I need something like this. It would def. save me some space.

rep=]

[stewart123]

That really is a great Mod/build. I have been really wanting to do my first mod into some sort of wooden case. Your mod definitely has inspired me. (I am still in the drawing phase as I am saving money to do it all at once.)

[Ouch!]

Very Nice.....I bet if you need to change any parts it's a cynch!
Just open the cabinet and away you go!

Also being up on the wall saves desktop space.

That's a cool mod!

Ouch!

[The boy 4rm oz]

Looks great, really unique. +rep for you!
