    Default I didn't mod my case,

    I got rid of it completely.

    A series of pics from the haphazard/accidental beginning of my "project" 3 months ago, to where it is now.

    First, a "before" pic:



    I was swapping some parts and cables around on the motherboard, and came to the conclusion that I hated my case, and it was only getting in the way. Since my rig wasn't going anywhere anytime soon . . .

    At this point I discovered that my stock CPU fan was annoyingly noisy, so I got a Zalman ALCU one to replace it. The one with a blue LED was the same price, so I figured why not.




    Of course, once I got the quiet CPU fan, the power supply fan started to annoy me. Bring in the new one . . .

    Then for Christmas, I got a sleeving kit:



    Next to get the hoist were the speakers:


    And I also stuck on a couple molex LED thingies that I had gotten w/ the sleeving kit.



    So that's where things stand for now. I'm thinking about ways to hang the monitor next . . .

    lol, I cant think of anything to say to this. This has to be the craziest idea ever. It looks pretty sweet too, nice job.

    Nice job tho, yous looks a bit more artistic and permanaent than mine though. im now running dual screens. Ill get new pics up, if you dont mind ill post them in this thread.

    BTW this is in the wrong section, it should be under gallaries.

    lol, Gotta love when people hate cases XD It brings up the most unique results.

    I've seen mobile PCs before, but when you add in other stuff as well.... so it's a full functioning computer, it's great!!!

    Heh, funny . . . . yeah, when I was googling around to see if had been done before, I found a couple pics of hanging setups - didn't see yours, though. I'll post some links to the ones I found when I get a chance.

    edit - actually, I just noticed that I started mine about a month before yours . . . so you're the copycat.

    Ah, sorry about that. I figured since it's still a work in progress I'd put it here.

    I just upgraded to a better/noisier video card, so now I've gotta get a matching Zalman silent fan for it - that'll be in a couple weeks. And hanging the monitor should happen pretty soon. I've also got one more molex LED to put on once I find a male adapter I can salvage for it. Probably some more wire management once I get some more loom.

    And the best thing I've got planned - instead of using the old case's switch assembly for power & reset, I want to get 2 huge knife switches mounted on the wall - like mad scientist/frankenstein's workshop type contraptions.
