[bigdawgfoxx]

you can buy a crappy case that looks tight for like 30 bux lol

[Spicker]

im too lazy and i want something orginal or something but thts my last choice lol :lol:

but everyone has to admit it looks ugly&#33; <_<

[abu_has_the_power]

i think it has great potential for improvement. just paint it green and get a window mod and get some led fans and cold cathodes. those jazz up any case

[tesco]

lol my friend also has that case and he also hates it. he&#39;s thinking of modding it too, hes going to cut the side to make a window and mount a fan in the midle of it, and he&#39;ll paint the whole case (except the inside) silver and hes taking off the buttons from the front and making clear ones with leds behind them. i think it will look pretty cool, hes also putting some lights in it.

btw, where do you live? do u live near toronto or something? and where did you buy that case?

this was the biggest mistake i did i bought this computer from this ad in the newspaper the computer was NEW i got it for pretty cheap.... 565&#036;with taxes

specs at tht time were
P4 1.9Ghz
PC-CHIPS (CRAP)
30gig (CRAP)
CASE(CRAP)
32mb vid(CRAP)
umm wt else....

PSU (crap started making big noises in 6months)
ummm i got ripped...

i didnt have as much knowledge about computers back then tht i have now....
i could do anything now&#33; lol

[Spicker]

@bigdawg
no im not a pro painter&#33; :lol: :lol: :lol: as a matter of fact i suk at ART&#33; :lol:

so the flames i dont think is possible... LOL&#33;

[tesco]

kool i dont live in toronto i live in keswick, you heard of it? lol. its liek1 hour from toronto, just said toronto because its near me and more people have heard of it.

and abu it isnt actually that much work, and he doesnt have money to buy a case, all he has to do is paint it then add in a window and i can do the buttons for him becuase im good at that kind of stuff.

1.) take it all apart, clean it good, and paint it, dont worry to much, you cant really fuck up spray paint

2.) ORGANIZE&#33; i mean buy some wrapped cables or make ur own, its not hard, and place everything tucked away, better for heat

3.) take alook here (http://kylan.00freehost.com/index_files/page0005.htm), its a shitty site i made, it has lots of pics of some ideas

[abu_has_the_power]

he doesn&#39;t have to be a professional painter to stick on flames to his case. i didn&#39;t mean paint flames, i meant get those flame sticker things and put them on. not very hard. and they&#39;re not too expensive either

[Spicker]

thnx for all the tips guyz :rolleyes: :D


i will buy spray paint soon...
and plexi glass for the window?
or someother glass?
wt should i use?

btw yes i know where kenswick is ;) :D

[tesco]

nope not working for me :angry: :angry: <_<

wt color shud i make the case?
Green?
Black?
Red?
:unsure:

[bigdawgfoxx]

I would make mine black or red

[tesco]

black, i dont think red would look good, but if you like red then go ahead its you that has to live with it so make it how you like it.

[Spicker]

i was thinkin about both black and red maybe some parts (like the bays or the cd drives shud be black or red and the rest another color or something....

hmm hard to decide

am i the only one not able to access tht site? :frusty: :unsure: :blink:

[bigdawgfoxx]

yah I think so haha.

Red CD drive covers with a black case could look tight..or silver cases would be tight.

[Spicker]

yea i got the site to work now...(mozilla) lol

yea it would look pretty tight with those colors..

now about the windows...

i dont hav the right tools :frusty: :unsure: :frusty:
:(

will homedepot cut for me? lol

[Cygnuz-Y]
