HP Resurrection 1 -Resurrected-
This case was built almost a few year back now! bit since i recently needed a new desktop to house some new hardware i thought i'd bring the old girl out of retirement ;)
The orig chassis was paint stripped and resprayed with 4 coats of 2pak auto GMH GTS silver.
The panels where all rubbed , high filled and also painted in 2 tone silver and black
a side hole was also cut and a custom side grill was shaped and added.
2 years on and the paint still holds a perfect shine.

Next was to get on with the Resurrection!
the first thing to do was set the Rad up, for this i guttted an spare 120mm
fan and used it as a mount.
Onto some VGA goodness
Next was to bolt in the mother board and vga, as you cnn im using on of my own custom made "fatboy" res's

An MPC650 is choice of pump
An OCZ psu was chosen to power the beast.
a tidy up of the wiring some zip ties and HP1 is ready to resume service :)
By my side!
Cheers,

Great job! I love it. Nice paint job, it looks pretty sharp.
Re: HP Resurrection 1 -Resurrected-
Again nice quality mods :D
Did you have any problems getting the video connector in behind the Radiator... i know you've left room, but it still looks kinda tight.
Re: HP Resurrection 1 -Resurrected-
i wish i had the money to build all these mods :D even a wc system would be great :) good job
Re: HP Resurrection 1 -Resurrected-
Nice looking ... can I bring my kids over to touch it :)
Re: HP Resurrection 1 -Resurrected-
thanx guys :)
Just to finish the old girl off, ive made a custom support bracket to support the quadro card, turned the side fans around to make them more usefull, added a CCF to light them and added some UV action internally.
Cut and checking for clearance.
Holes :)
A bit milling to miss vital caps
Sanded edges polished and fitted up.
Card sits nice and even now.
The fans.
They now blow air in and across the pump.
Re: HP Resurrection 1 -Resurrected-
The end result
UV action!
Re: HP Resurrection 1 -Resurrected-
is that the inverter in the heatshrink? just be careful not to surprise yourself with some fireworks :D
