mdashoot · Mar 14, 2008

To view this case mod, go here.

Specs:
Asus P5K-E WiFi Motherboard
Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 @ 3.0Ghz
Zalman CNPS9700 NT
G. Skill 2X1gb DDR2 800 PC2 6400
XFX GeForce 8800GT 512mb 256bit Alpha Dog W/Accelero S1
HT Omega Claro 7.1 surround sound card
500gb Samsung Spinpoint Sata HDD
LG DVD/CD with Lightscribe Sata Optical
Samsung DVD/CD with Lightscribe Sata Optical
Windows XP Professional SP2

Mods:
Two Thermal-Star Illuminated Digital Thermometers in One Drive bay Cover.
All new double ball bearing fans.
filter doors have been modded to pull in more air.
filters have been modded to pull in more air, and filter the same. Metal finger gaurds for all fans have been cut out.
Custom chamber divider to totally seal bottom from top.
Some holes drilled to run the wires better.
Fan controller is controlling all 5 fans.

This was my first Build ever, I had no physical help. TPU got me through it all with not one problem. This case was on here before but when I tried to update the new mods it wouldnt work.

Lets see if I can get a better rating than what I had before. I put a lot of work in to this case. I am now getting way better temps with the new fans, plus I added another for 5 total. On top of that it is way more quiet then it was before. I think cutting the fan grills out, modding the filters, and sealing the chambers really helped with the temps and cooling, as for the noise, the fan controller really helps with that, also the dbb fans are way better than the stock fans.

First build ever?! 10/10 for sure, absolutely wonderful!

PaulieG · Mar 14, 2008

Very Nice job, especially for your first. I'll give you 9/10. Fair or not, you lose a point for the miserable placement of the psu's in those p182 cases. Damn, I don't miss mine, especially with a modular psu.

you are right about the PSU, it's a pain in the ass to run those cables and keep them looking neat. And not easy plugging in the modular cables with the psu installed.

ummm, the rubber trim is fine and the hole is cut out perfect. It might look odd because I was realy close when I shot the pic. The tower was on the desk and I forgot to get that shot so I held the cam behind it in between the wall and tower and shot.

calvary1980 · Mar 15, 2008

it looks crooked and sided instead of round regardless you shouldn't be using trim that size.

I dont know what you mean by crooked and sided, if your talking about the hole for the fan mayabe you should look at a pic of an antec p182 case and you will see why. and the trim is the same as this

and last, where is your case mod?

and again, if I wasnt so close when I shot the pic it wouldnt look so big, I actually did a better job than the guy did in the pic above. He pieced his trim together, I only have one break, and also the case in the pic above is a P180.

oh, and I ordered the XFX GeForce 8800gt today, so that will be in some time next week.
