Hiya all, Nearly done with this project Here is Pic. Istill need to do Intake and exhaust point for 120mm fan I am going to order 6 -- 3for radiator --- 3 for the case I think i will need more than 3 but I will do with 3 for now. Advice Required

I know It look like Gheto I just want to get this running with old stuff (9600GT) athlon x2 6000+ my current harddrive that was on my other comp 4gig ddr2qimonda Old Psu

Spawn-Inc · 12-21-09, 11:30 PM

nice stuff, is that a Siemens electrical panel i see?

also what screws are you using to hold your psu?

Neuromancer · 12-21-09, 11:35 PM

Put some supports in that puppy and use it as a leg for a desk

sweefu · 12-21-09, 11:46 PM

nice one mate.. is that mdf flooring your using there?

Diggrr · 12-22-09, 12:01 AM

I think I liked it better when it had a shelf for the windex...now that's l33t.

Yep, that's flooring OSB (oriented strand board)...maybe he's laying in some nice hardwood later...

Yeah, I'm teasing, but it's a jubly big case there, bud!

Grosjambon · 12-22-09, 01:50 AM

I knew it that someone was going to talk about that windex Bottle

hmmm Here is pic the Screw I Puted in the psu Had hard time having the good mesure i had 2 on 4 good needed to bigger the 3rd hole to make it fit (3/4 screwed)

Sry I dunno what u mean about the floor +_+ IM french canadian and I dunno what is MDF or OSB +_+
and what is siemens electrical pannel? I think it is the Gray thing u see in background of the 4th picture I will check later its 3;00 AM today just came back of friends house. I will be back tomorow or today +_+
Yea this thing is biggy maybe overkill

i think i could fit 6 120.3 rad in there lol... still need to do some 120mm or 4,5'' hole in there for some fan.

Kbird · 12-22-09, 08:36 AM

I like it.

psionic98 · 12-22-09, 08:57 AM

psu is gonna suck up a ton of hot air from the cpu.. but otherwise pretty nifty.. and huge.. like neuro said.. turn it into a leg of a computer desk or something

WonderingSoul · 12-22-09, 09:25 AM

Oh noes! Do I see an ASUS M2N-E?! Run to the hills!

Grosjambon · 12-22-09, 10:31 AM

yea it is a m2n-e

Old stuff like i said. Testing to see if its work it seemto be working and i'll put my real computeri nthere and old stuff into the other case.

Grosjambon · 12-22-09, 11:49 AM

It is OSB also called Plywood

It cost me like 20$ for a big sheet. Idid this project to dont pay 200$ for a Ful latx case and im pretty happy with the result i am having

MattNo5ss · 12-22-09, 03:00 PM

Not bad at all, especially for the price.

I would've used medium density fiberboard (MDF) instead of plywood. Plywood is just too brittle for me to feel safe. You should try it out on your next project.

Grosjambon · 12-22-09, 03:51 PM

Any advice on where putting 3 120mm fan? in there.
I know one will be under the Psu as exhaust but i dunno where to put the 2other. maybe down where the rad will be intake where are cddrive / harddrive and an exhaust under the Graphic card?
I love to take picture here is what i think to do for now with 3fan. ( only have one now so i used different point of vision??? to let visualize where the fan will be also taked some pic with yellow sheet.

With that on I will still have place to put +2 fan on the bottom of the case or upper for the graphic card

Grosjambon · 12-22-09, 10:23 PM

hehe, here is pic of that monsta under the desk IT FIT! almost 1cm between the desk and the top of the case +_+

jeckulz · 12-23-09, 01:25 AM

Good on ya for doing it on the cheap there dude.

Would be interested to see what kind of temps you achieve in there.
Wood normally being known for its insulation properties.
Heat as well as sound.

It'll be as quiet as nothing, but are your temps likely to suffer using only 3 fans I wonder?
Keep us updated!

Grosjambon · 12-23-09, 01:54 PM

I dont know yet, it is running with open case ( not closed ) only 1 fan in there is at the harddrive cooling them because no hole has been made yet.
Still need to do the Pannel to close it.
Yet, temps are better than it was with my old case ( after 20min stress on the cpu ) 3degree lower.

Grosjambon · 12-27-09, 01:01 AM

Hi im back again Did the Cd Drive Bays ENJOYs

hehe did some nasty cable managment over here

Grosjambon · 12-27-09, 01:02 AM

WAs mising space for a image here
Comparing to my old case

Grosjambon · 12-27-09, 01:03 AM

LAWL Pretty retarded error I will not post pic of it but I forgot to put the CD Drive cable +_+

Grosjambon · 12-28-09, 10:24 PM

Update :
