This is Capt'n Slugs mini-LAN case..
He built the computer and I cut the side panel...he wrote
"Booyah! After 5 months of anticipation and coordination with Charlie (64Thunderbolt) I've finished my LAN rig! I modded everything (Heatsink, Case, Lighting, Cables) except the drives. This low-budget Small Form Factor gaming machine measure a meager 15 x 12 x 4 inches and weighs in at only 8.5 pounds!
The guts are ..
"Duron 900
Asus A7N266-VM (will eventually be upgraded to an nForce2 mATX mobo)
256mb PC2100 DDR
IBM Travelstar 12GB UDMA66 Laptop Hard Drive (tiny and silent)
Samsung 24x Laptop CD-ROM
165w Enlight PSU
Enlight Slim case
I modified the heatsink to allow the usage of an EXTREMELY thin 80 x 80 x 10mm fan instead of the regular high-pitched 60mm fan. Using only low-speed or 80mm fans, I was able to drop the over-all system noise level to 21Dba. The Duron hasn't gone above body temperature yet. Even when I play UT2k3. This machine has been sitting next to my desk Folding 24/7 for the past 4 months.
Enough blabber, onto the pics! "
