I need to clean the window, its a mess

My antec 900 window gets really dusty to >.<

[taylormsj]

My System, its nothing special, a basic build. My next I hope to be better.

If you have any suggestions on the wiring in this one, please do let me know

That side fan is doing nothing !

[Seer]

yeah man but doesn't really mention the side panel

The one listed on newegg doesn't come with a window and I thought he had that one. lol

I like this case. Maybe sell my 900 for it or something.

Anyways, here's mine:



Made a hole for my previous PSU, but upgraded to an Antec TPQ850, so the hole isn't being used anymore lol. This PSU is too big for this case . . .


My rigs guts. Made a hole next to the PSU, right under the MB for cable management.

[HaGGaRd]

ohhh okay man lol :P
Nice antec, cables are really tidy, good job

Same keyboard as me to

You know I was just thinking it'd be great to LAN it up w/ you guys.

At a recent LAN, kid busted out a CRT and an ATI 9250 to play COD4. His HDD alone made more noise than my shouting.

yeahh duude would be so cool to lan but I live all the way over in England, difficult for some

[cabbspapp]

Yeah it would be cool, but it wouldn't be cool bringing my case with how big it is. If I ever start going to LAN's, I'll build a dedicated rig.

[Jodiuh]

I use a Thermaltake Xaser Bag 1700 for trips w/ the Stacker 810. It could probably fit slightly larger cases as well.

I'd really like to get a good set of wheels for better mobility.

Can you strap a monitor to it? My biggest concern is lugging my rig around with a TRUE. I don't want leverage damaging the motherboard.

I wouldn't. Case Ace has a nice harness for that. I'll try to remember and snap a pic from before the unpacking next LAN. As for the TRUE, cpu temps do not change after bouncing around in the car for an hour. I threw some velcro down and haven't worried about it for a long time.

Very nice gpu "protector" ToMeGuN.

Here's my first ever mod project - it was supposed to be ATX but i ed up the measurements so it had to become mATX. It's based on an old AT (Yes, AT) server case that I pretty much re-did from scratch. I'm not particularly proud of this one - i thought the triangular intake/outlet were such a good idea, but they end up stealing so much space; some of the cuts were left rough in the rush to get it to powder-coating on time (but theyre not visible anyway); The brushed-effect sidepanel clashes (which is a shame after days of sanding ). There's no right-hand-side panel either - I can't be bothered to make one as I'm a perfectionist and I just didn't make this case perfect enough for myself. Hopefully my next mod will be better though...

Sorry about the poor-quality pictures btw...


^the case


Interior - Zalman FS-C77 (I now have an Ultra-90), Gigabyte SilentPipe 6600GT, Gigabyte auxiliary fan


Interlocked fins - this actually looked pretty neat



Pre powder-coating. Here you can see the triangular intake/exhaust. The idea was that air would come in through the bottom, be blown onto the northbridge/video card area, and obviously the CPU, and then be immediately exhausted out the rear top of the case. It seems to work pretty well, actually - case temps are usually in the mid-20s.

[Jodiuh]

Very unusual and nice! I'm definitely in the high 20's w/ more fans than that! Not to mention, mine doesn't look like a terminator. (needs more red!)

[su3_zero]

so crazy man... looks great!!!

[cloned]

I like it, it may not be perfect but it has character. You have something that everyone at LAN parties will ask you about, maybe too much to actually get any gaming done. Also i really think you should make the other side panel.

[Husky42]

That side fan is doing nothing !

What do you mean?

It is an Intake, and the air does go over the fins on the Tuniq. Essentially its just more air blowing over the cooler that then gets exhausted out the back.

I've not the original grill to stick there and I'm not about to buy another fan for the case when I'm buying a whole new case shortly.

But as far as I can tell the fan does do "something" it blows air over the cooler as for how much it helps, not really sure.

Are you saying it is best to remove it, get some wire mesh and relocate it so it blows directly over the GPU instead?

[hit25cal]

i finally put all the pieces into the case..

is that an ocz memory cooler?

[Mankz_91]

Where did you get that from? I want one!

[RockfordFosgate]

We built it ourselfs Hand made.

[emoners]

i like it RockfordFosgate!

[Dynacore]

Few pics of my system.









Aircooling is sexy

here's mine

Looking awsome, some nice unusual concepts
