    That's friggin awesome. I think it would be nice if there were a few options for non-square/rectangle rads available, like one that would take the place of a 200mm fan on the side of a case. Anyway, tell your friend awesome job on the Tron mod.

    This is not one of DB's mods (its someone else on the PDXLAN site), but it definitely outstanding ingenuity.

    When mere mortals think about a Tron inspired mod they make some openings on yout average off-the-mill case, put a lot of blue lighting, slap one of those Razer mice/matts on top and presto!

    This is above and beyond that by several orders of magnitude...

    One of those things that either inspires you or makes you wish you never touched a computer case with a drill in your life and took gardening instead...

    Geniously done. Loved the movie, adore the mod.
    Will your friend be posting worklog somewhere around here?

    It looks really neat, heck the whole lightcycle looks really neat.

    But how do you get any airflow through it?

    Those fans (at least I assume those are fans) are perpendicular to the actual radiator surface.

    EDIT: and BTW, I am so jealous of extreme modders. I wish I had a fraction of the skills
    and creativity exhibited by some of these people. {and no 0 doesn't count as a fraction }

    That would kick ass with a squirrel cage. I've been designing a squirrel cage mod for standard radiators, not only are the more quiet, but they move much more air (higher pressure).

    Looking good DB! Looks like you are rubbing off on your friends

    He has been at it longer than I and clearly has more skills in the modding area
