my objective is to give my casing a new look..
my proposal would be
1)change atx style to btx style..as this could improve the airflow of system
2)create window for top panel

Btw, sherren can help u around givin' lotsa tips wht more his curves gettin' cun & more cun


My best wishes of happy modding , njoy~ urself & most importantly dont 4get safety precautions

Waa ... the 4 pieces of RAM looks scary ...

wah...i hav only a set (2GB) of those but i like the blink blink..like christmas tree in your casing....

ehehe..

tq..btw precaution has been made..to ensure no injury..
takotttttttt......if bleeding..cannot finish this modding

What the...

4 piece of golden stick of ballistix tracer...i think it's equal to my GTS price already..

Nice stuff u got there mate...

That's the problem people willing to spent on GTS that doesn't last a year but not on 4 pieces of ram that would be used for more than a year ..

hahah .. nice going, I'm really interested to see how the BTX mod would be done ...

Nice stuff,like a hardware fair..
Good luck.

ehehe..u should get it too bro



atx to btx will be done soon...



hardware fair..haih..i aint good for it yet

Bro,drill some holes on the mobo tray to put some LEDs..it will light up your mobo dude..

its just IMO.

haih..actualy i aint to familiar with electronic...led..isk..
if i try,possibility of short cct wil happen is very high..then booooommmmmm

Maybe you can bro bombman to make the circuit for you.

i will think about that..

update...



cutting motherboard tray



haih...the board being upside down

from the front



i bought acrylic...only rm5..i thought it would be demn expensive..

this is top panel after being cut..sorry..i dun have much picture for this process as technical problem occur..

i have to put some cement onto the surface to recover some part..
and next process would be repaint..

pull off acrylic cover
the picture during gluing was missing..as my hand was fulfilled
by the glue itself..

next...riveting....

rebuild..

continue...

if i not mistaken,they are aluminium...as i saw from gigabyte's site itself

Nice job dude.
Hey, can help me mod my old 3D Aurora to Inverted ATX like yours?

I'm willing to pay a premium price.

aiseh...x reti sgt la bro...i do this to fullfill my semester break...

btw..u should ask uncle ianho or bombman for the service

Ala.

Si ianho aku msn tak balas balas, si bombman plak duk kat penang, adoi...

ai yoh abang shwty , ape kate ko try mod sendiri??

bleh wat experience pastu bleh wat bisnes

Kalau wa reti, wa dah buat dah beb.
Tapi reti buat pun tak guna, aku takde tools.
