    Good deal on that. Must be nice. I wasn't able to find anything on the PDA LCD screen, but I'm assuming that with all the work that would have to go into it, might as well get one of those other screens. The way I figure it is that you'll have to mod the video card output and somehow get it into the video controller on the pda while also having to figure out how to power the pda screen. Seems like the long way around now that I think about it.

    well, i think i still might try atlest to do it, hell gotta start somewhere! But its good to have a fall back. And i had an idea, seeing as the UV paint is "invisible" im gonna paint the ENTIRE case interior black, and actualy the back now that i think of it, and just apply the UV after the fact so it looks black until turned on xD

    Sorry i dont know **** and im probably becoming iritating but this is my first mod and even my first PC i actualy built myself. And well im only 14 >.>
    I'm gonna have a look around a few forums for people that have done interesting wiring things and see if they can help

    EDIT: did some looking around and saw modders using PSone LCDs but they are a bit to large for my project atm, and i was gonna contact Defyant but he hasnt been active on forums for a while... D:

    i'm not sure how you feel about ripping the pda apart but if the touch screen lcd's have any kind of universal cables you might be able to get it to work that way.

    Actually, the exact opposite. It's good that you ask questions. I keep trying to get it through my daughters head that asking questions is a good thing. It's how we learn. Good idea on the UV paint.

    yes i know that is the stock cooler for my quad core >.>


    OK now down to business

    I want to add a cold cathode there only hugging side of the case more




    UV cold cathode on other side of bar




    COld cathodes behind monitors




    Paint the entire back black too xD





    Current top fan, going to remove the current mesh and black USB crap and add larger mesh area and 120MM fan







    EDIT: oh yes and im also planning on puting stealth drive covers on that would look like the 5.25 drive bay covers

    EDIT2: im planning on making fan grills out of the mesh like the second pic in this banner
