Top is modded to fit the Feser on it (see pic below)

I can buy a window for the side, cutting them out on anything but a CNC machine isn't so easy to make look good. :shadedshu

Paint it?
More CM?
Anything?

And yes, its a AAKS....also have Vista Ultimate like the other RAID0 drives.....works well, but I've not long just got it so I don't think I want to sell it just yet. :)




AAKS at the side of the case. :)

That's the window, I'd sooner buy one as it only costs about $25....

As for more airflow at the front, it only cools the HDD's and its a 140mm fan @ 900rpm.....painting the inside would work though but what colour?

Just got my new PC starter. :rockout:


Edit: No block though yet. :(

The starter smells strange....like perfume. :confused:

And the wiring for the modded cable belongs in the Ghetto Modders Clubhouse. :roll:


Good gadget anyway, I made my girlfriend go and get it after I'd woke her up to go get the door....needed her signature. :nutkick:

Needless to say, I am popular with her now......but I do have a nice new toy and I'm happy about that. :)

It works, lol. I dont have any of the tools to make it professional. And I dont know why it smells of perfume, has spent most of its life in that box, lol.

You'll see that the power LED connector will force you to unplug your case power led, so I made that to allow me to have both running. Just plug the power led connector of the jump start into it :)

PCI blank wont look nice in my Lian Li so I'll whip out the Dremel tonight and chew up a stock Lian Li blank, it'll look so much nicer. :)


Or.....I could use the WC holes in the top of the case to feed this in....cable management would be a lot easier that way. :)


Edit: Whats with the resistor on the modded wire, Alex?

Power LED headers output about 3v. So it steps down the voltage to not fry the led :)

I used the WC holes to feed it into my chassis.

This must be the longest this thread has had no posts...

Anyways, i need some PSU cable sleeving. I'm not going to mod it wire by wire, but i'am doing each separate wire collection. I'm thinking a UV Red to match the mod ideas (this is for my Lanbox btw). Wheres the best place?

Oh, and i might replace the PSU's fan with a RED LED one.

Get on it moon. :)


eBuyer are pretty useless for modders stuff but you could give them a try I guess.

When I get on the laptop in a few minutes I think I have a good place for you to check...

I like ChilledPC for modding stuff. They don't have RED Braid though, might do black braid and Red heatshrink

That was the place I was going to link you too, didn't know if you used them already.


They have a nice selection of modders stuff and personally, I like the white sleeving, it looks so nice. :)
