    How do you make the Silverstone Tj-07 BTX?

    hi,

    I have noticed on many sites that most people are using the Silverstone TJ-07 in a BTX style configuration. With the graphics cards at the top of the case, cpu at bottom. Does anyone know how to do this as i cant see how to on my case. Pictures would be ace. Thanks for your help

    -Remove roof grill w/fans
    -Remove motherboard tray/backplane
    -Unscrew upper tray guide from roof
    -Unrivet lower tray guide rail from subfloor
    -Replace mobo tray (temporarily with just 4 screws)
    -Take old upper guide rail (the tall one) and mock it into position under the mobo tray...you're only going to mark for screw holes right now, ultimately it will need to spaced up 1/4"
    -Drill/tap new holes in subfloor
    -Assemble

    The roof grill assembly will no longer fit (you'll see why) so it will either need to be trimmed or replaced with something else.
    Here's mine (possibly the first conversion of this type actually) in the trial fit stages...

    As I was poking around today I stumbled across this on the PC Modding Malaysia forum. I realize this isn't for the TJ07 but rather the TJ03 so I don't know how useful the info will be to you. Hopefully you might still find something useful in it, however.
    Look at the tyranny of party--at what is called party allegiance, party loyalty--a snare invented by designing men for selfish purposes--and which turns voters into chattles, slaves, rabbits, and all the while their masters, and they themselves are shouting rubbish about liberty, independence, freedom of opinion, freedom of speech, honestly unconscious of the fantastic contradiction; and forgetting or ignoring that their fathers and the churches shouted the same blasphemies a generation earlier when they were closing their doors against the hunted slave, beating his handful of humane defenders with Bible texts and billies, and pocketing the insults and licking the shoes of his Southern master.
