Greetz Gert AkA BOBO

edit: If u read somewhere on page 2 r new picture's with the latest changes

[IFMU]

Not too shabby if I do say so myself. ;)
Looks pretty nice, now lets see the rest! lol

Keep up on the updates too, would hate to ban someone because they tease with only partial case mod shots!~! LoL just kidding.

Question/suggestion?!
Are you wanting the rougher finish? If not, when you paint it, get it just a touch wetter, makes the paint smoother. You dont want to do it too wet, or it could run, but just a touch.
But then again, if it is the way you want it, then who cares what I say right? ;) LoL

[pulverizer]

You may want to try picking up some 3M rubbing compound to use, it will make it really reflective and you will see the clearcoat get less cloudy when you do that. You may have already done this, but if you have not, you might want to try it sometime...

[gert_bobo]

well i'll do that if i knew what rubbing compound is in dutch cause i don't think the salesmen over here r so good with english
Greetz Gert AkA BOBO

[pulverizer]

Hmm, its used on cars mostly. Let me find you a link, so you can actually see what i am talking about...

[gert_bobo]

ok its sort of wax, not???
Greetz Gert AkA BOBO

[pulverizer]

Yeah its like a wax, except instead of protecting the finish, it polishes it. This only works if you used a paint that had a clear coat that you put on as the last layer...

[gert_bobo]

ok just tried to paint the sides totally screwed it now is my base is empty my colour only half full, no more money so updates will last "little" (lot) longer :'(:'(:'(:'(

[gert_bobo]

yeah but my spirit is gone again since my system won't boot anymore killed second videocard in 2 days don't know what's wrong now working on my server on a pci videocard :( :( :(
I don't got any money left or spare videocards so i'm out of buisiness for a while
Greetz Gert AkA B0B0
:cussing:

[DZVlad]

killed second videocard in 2 days

wtf are you doing to your videocards? confusing the +12V and the wall outlets?

[gert_bobo]

don't really know what went wrong with the last one and if i was confusing +12V with 220v~ then there would be more fried then only my vidcard
maybe there was a bad contact between the gpu and the waterblock, maybe some condensation still formed i really don't know
it just sux
Greetz Gert AkA B0B0

[freak22]

ouch.

[DZVlad]

yeah that sucks big time? what were the videcards? the same model/manufacturer or what? did you manage to RMA them? or are they just... burnt?

[gert_bobo]

http://users.pandora.be/BOBOsplace2/case/final/IMGP2675(1).JPG

the front with the blue glow
http://users.pandora.be/BOBOsplace2/case/final/IMGP2677(1).JPG

the underside with the blue neon and one of the two blue led's thingies (bubble lights without the stick)
http://users.pandora.be/BOBOsplace2/case/final/IMGP2685(1).JPG
http://users.pandora.be/BOBOsplace2/case/final/IMGP2686(1).JPG
