dear god

look mommy its a bird

no its a plane

NO its a computer.

what kinda speeds can that thing get.:D

[Ebola]

i hope those wheels are the type with locks on them otherwise that case might just take off.

[Mr B]

Don't know...don't know where he got it....just got an attached jpeg with an e-mail...lol

I was looking at it with a bit of a "technical eye" though....looks like the "hub" of the fan sits right above the cpu....right in a dead spot for the fan...lol It probably runs hotter now...:p

**If you look close...it's either a slot 1 P///, or a Slot A Athlon**

[Killer Chef]

OMG!

I wonder if has to anchor it down so it doesnt blow itself off the desk.:D
oh....and dont be sticking ya fingers anywhere near it when it's running!!:D:eek:

[Mr B]

if you look even closer it has a gorb, why have that fan with that heatsink, lol.

[Mr B]

Let's see if this looks ok...:D

Yeah, I know...a fan that big, and he ran a Gorb...lol Why run a fan in the Gorb? (Why run a Gorb at all, is a better question, really...;) )

[Mr B]

I was toying with the idea of "modding" my midtower for the longest time... I was running an Asus P3C2000 mobo (i820 Camino chipset), and was thinking of using a "Camino" theme for the case...lol

El Camino that is...:D I've always been a car nut (esp Chevys)....was gonna take a case side, build a mockup of the "Cowl Induction" hood from about 1970 or so, and put the SS "skunk stripes" over it, like this....:D Put a knockoff "El Camino" and "SS" emblem on the front, on a couple of the open cd bays...

**BTW...anyone got one of these?? I'll trade ya the XP1800+ for it...:p **

(Time to move this to lthe "Modding" section, too...)

[JAWS]

That case is the craziest thing I've ever seen! Every year down here in Daytona, they have "The Turkey Rod Run". I guarantee it's some of the baddest cars on the face of the earth.

If your throughput is moving at 150 mph, is dust still a problem?

No but MB erosion is. Just dont suck our little kitty in there!

[Oni]

That fan pic is old hat now. I remember seeing that last year.

[Breadfan]

Old or not, for those who haven't seen it before its quite...."cool"

I saw a few posts in that thread that said "that pic is old news, I've seen that before"...thats great and wonderful and all, but this was the first time I saw it, and I enjoyed seeing it.

So Mr B, old pic or not, I'm happy you posted it.

[Element-Xero]

[NickLNitro]

Does he have any kind of plans to build a case out of pipes like that?

[Speed_Freak]

can you say.....psycho! btw, the el camino look on a case would be sweet but a Chevelle SS would be better:D :D

[KeyboardCowboy]

wow, that is cool, did he tell how it was made?????
