Hey guys. I am a newbie in the industry of OCing so I'd be glad if you guys could help me out w/t suggestions on this.

In a nutshell, A couple of my friends came up w/t the wacky idea of RAVAGING a CPU casing for a club activity. Originally, the idea was to build one from scratch (which was blatantly impossible), but after some thought, we noticed that our school's com labs had a junk pile of old casings and figured we'd just help ourselves to them biggrin.gif

While ideas are still running between us at this time, I was hoping if you guys could help tell us a little about casing modding. At this point , our ideas are on the lines of :
1) Cutting a see-through side panel in the......side panel(?)
2) Bling LED lights etc..
3) Nice big fans
4) Repaint

In regards to be above, the biggest thing I'd like to know is how to go about hacking the side panel apart. I read ianho for a while and he used a jigsaw, but i highly doubt such a thing would be allowed in the school premises. Alternatively, does something like a metal cutting shop exist?

Any assistance would be much appreciated. Advise, Ideas or even a big "its not possible" would help laugh.gif

Note - I'm in the PJ area and my school's SMJK Katholik. Heard of it?

Thanks a bunch

No. Take office table drawer, the one that not attached to table, usually got 3 to four drawer, put a mobo in 2nd drawer, hdd and drives in 1st drawer, psu in 3rd drawer, drill a couple holes, prepare a few acrylic panel, change the front drawer panel to acrylic, set everything right, assemble everything right, switch it on...there you go, paint the drawer if you like.

I think you should go Casing N Modification section for more case modding assistant. There are plenty of sifu forumer at that section with very gooding modding skills. Do spend some time with their worklogs too.
