Project: Hell Froze I have been into PC modding for a couple years now. The extent of my mods were very limited. I added LED fans, mabye cut a blowhole or 2, painted the case. Nothing very awe inspiring. That is why I decided to finally do a mod that required more. This is the result. |
I started playing with watercooling about a year ago. I never realy got into
it that much because I couldnt quit get it to work the way I planned. The
reason for the case I chose is one because of the size, which will allow me
to do what I want with it. Second was the price of $21.50. Third it
was because, well just look at it. It screams mod me. |
After all of the planning I could do at this point, I decided to jump in and start
cutting. I knew that I hated the curve of the front panel, so it had to
go. After cutting all away that I though I would need to, I found more that
needed to be removed in order to do what I want to the front panel. This
case is actually well built for the price. It is just heavy. Picture
is a little squishy. |
Another reason that I chose this case is because of the stock fan holes. I
was partial to Antec SoHo style cases. I just could never work with the stamped
grills and make the end product look like a damn. This case has the
exact style I am looking for. |
I invested in a couple hole saws because I am an impatient person. I also cant
use a dremel to its full potential yet. After cutting the holes, I deburred
the edges, and went bondo crazy. I know the edges arent perfect, however
I will be using c-channel molding and grommets in the end. |
