Found this earlier today. Got to be the coolest case mod I've seen in a long time.

that's pretty cool, but not practical.  the only "mod" i've ever done to computers is the one time i took an aluminum case (with foam padding and stuff inside... i think it was supposed to hold components for a gun, probably a rifle, because the case was pretty big.  about the size of a briefcase, but slightly thicker) and i made an entire computer inside it.  with motherboard, processor, a hard drive, everything, and it never once overheated.  the power supply fan was toward the outside (the top of the case, by the handle), and i had two ducts (made out of the aluminum pipe i bought at an auto store that's meant to run air from the carburator to the engine, it worked awesome, it was just the right size) with fans on the end of them (on the outside of the case) which one just sucked hot air out of the case, the other sucked cool air from outside onto the processor...

it worked perfectly, and never once overheated.  i could run it with the case closed, plugging power, monitor, mouse, and keyboard on the left side of the case, or i could open it up for more venting, or if it was going to run for longer periods of time.  i originally thought i could take it to school so i could work on it instead of the cheap computers we have at school, but i never got around to doing that, and in the end, after a few months, i started using components for other things ;)

I've been meaning to put a fish-tank in the side of mine for a while, but I kinda spent all the cash I had for it on booze.

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

*winces*:ick :lol:

Never understood case modding, myself - it costs loads of money, for no actual performance increase. It's like painting go-faster stripes and flames on a car. Also, only a few people are ever going to see it, so it's an even bigger waste. I'd spend the money on booze any day. Or new games/CDs/DVDs/clothes/whatever...
Any fool can pull a trigger...

Case modding is lame- it's like hot-rodding for people too dweeby to even make their car look gay. If you could figure out a way to get autodefense turrets on a case, mind... keep those ****ers out of my cache logs once and for all!

Eh, case mods are for those who go to LAN parties monthly. *shrugs* The only case mod I'm doing is putting an additional fan in the side, with a built-in green LED to light the thing up. Only $10.

Now, where's the CD drive on that thing? If it was the engine strip, THAT would be cool, but it's not, so it isn't.

plus this one is the worst, I used to kick my PC from times to times ( no, really, a problem with the HD rack fan ), with that stupid thing, one quick and my PC would be dispatched puzzle-way. Plus where's the room for adding anything? where's the warrenty asying that the thing won't melt? Oh, and most likely the best air flow ever :rolleyes:

Yeah... but I haven't had so much luck not damaging standard cases, either. I remember one old computer was OC for a year because a well-placed, ah, hard boot dislodged the video card.;)

Well, I moved the case a couple monthes ago, so instead of kicking it, I could slap it. Last week, the fan really got on my nerves so I removed the rack.
