I remember in 98 i had to have that giant case back then. bigger is better!!! No more but good luck with it. $39 is a hell of a price. I think directron has the 36" IDE cables!!!!!

deathman is probably referring to the U2-UFO case which are HUGE at 18"x18"x18" and quite expensive. They can be found at http://mountainmods.com

Not sure how budget conscious you are, but here's a case that's 1 5.25 bay shorter than the hydraulic but 1/2 the price.

Now that is one big case :drool:

Somewhere down the road I think I'll have to make me one that big.

Yea, I saw that one too, but I think it seems to be to short width wise. But you can't complain for $20.

I attached a pic of what I got now. I really don't want to have to squeeze water cooling into that case.

heh your beer might be a tad warm

my problem wasnt size in a height sense, but front to back, side to side. which those cases dont really look like they help...

the space issue comes along for the pump on the bottom, and the radiator, which I guess you could mount on top.

Well it's been a week of modding my new case. Just a warning to anyone else that gets this case, the edges are very sharp!!!!! Here is what happend... oh, and yes, there are 6 stitches there.

Dang, sorry to see that. Didn't think cases had that much bite to them. Sounds like it needs some dremel-grinding wheel loving.

Any pics of the mods you've completed?

Now what would you need 28 drives for?

Take that RIAA! :attn:

LOL

jiggamanjb · Jun 23, 2004

Should have some pics of the mods up tonight.

jiggamanjb · Jun 24, 2004

Here are a couple pics of how the case came for anyone who is interested. The top of the case is being modded so I can put the rad in there. That should be back tomorrow, I have a friend doing it for me. I plan on having 2-3 windows in this bad boy, that will be the next step.

I modded the 120mm fan hole on the front so far.

Here is a pic of the water cooling just waiting to get in there.

jiggamanjb · Jun 24, 2004

Pics of the priming being done. There are a lot of rivits and screws in this case just to warn you guys!!!!

Baowuf · Jul 2, 2004

How's it comming along? Have any pics of the guts installed?

jiggamanjb · Jul 2, 2004

Well, I got a little sidetracked. My girlfriend is a teacher and they were gonna throw away a bunch of computers, but she grabbed them for me before they went into the trash.

The tally was 3-400Mhz, 1-733Mhz, 2-200Mhz, a couple 10G hard drives and a bunch of PC133 RAM. It was like X-mas!!!

I did get some of the paint job done. I still needs some clear coat on it.

I went and grabbed a nice big piece of plexi, cause I plan on having a couple of windows in this bad boy.

This weekend I plan on working on it some more, and should have some more pics up then.

PCGUY112887 · Jul 2, 2004

See the computer in the picture that is on the floor right next to the other computer that is on the floor with the window? I bet that is the one that is 400mhz and a 10GB HDD. Why do I think that? Because I have the exact same thing behind me

jiggamanjb · Jul 2, 2004

You would be correct

I got a couple of them folding already

PCGUY112887 · Jul 2, 2004

Yay for folding on old machines!
I slapped windows 2000 server on that old machine and it hosted my site great till I started getting so much traffic that my little net connection started to give out. Now it's just used for web surfing for my friends.
