Here's my old school PC60 from Adrenalin computers in Adelaide.

Ugh, you just had to didnt'cha? Well then! Let's call it a PC60 plus and all shall be well. Pfft...picking on the little guys like that. Shame on ya!

I think it makes a difference since the exhaust air from the my blower fan is pretty warm.

But I have my reservations about the air duct. My temps are lower when the rear fan acts as an exhaust rather than an intake. Air ducts don't do much when the volume of moved air is very low.

Did you use a polishing tool on a dremel (as suggested) for that? Or just good old elbow grease and sponge? So hard to find a dremel with the new ruling from customs. Saw one in Klang but it's so damn pricy for an unknown brand.

Oh, anyway did'cha use ordinary car wax to polish that? My case is in similar need of some polishing too.

Tried looking around today but all I found was car wax lol. Where did you get that polish and what's da brand?

Sonex it is then. Is it available in Carrefour / Giant?

Hmmm *comes back from carrefour, reads thread, tosses bottle of Sonex behind* (nah im just kidding)

So what's the proper way of buffing the internals of my lian li case to a pretty shine without possibly making any irreversible repairs? Clean it followed by a wax with rotary / wax cloth?

Eh, I had been thinking of doing the same thing as you. I have a PC60 as well and the 'built-in' grill (like the picture Mersing put up) is seriously impeding the air flow and the vibrations coming off are kinda annoying as well.

You sending in your entire case to ian? Cos I've no idea how to take off the top bit and pass it to him. Don't really want to unplug the whole PC and bring it over to his place.

Oh btw: Found a bottle of 3M aluminum (or general metal surface polisher). Works pretty well (spray and wipe off, didn't really have to rub it too hard to get the smudges off). Zippo fluid probably works fine as well.

She put up quite a fight ler. Had to knock her out cold before making a quick getaway.

From some hardware shop in Klang (near LaSalle Klang). They even had a dremel for sale at that shop. Trust these small town people to stock what you really need.

Eh eh sidewinderz dude, how did you take off the top bit of your Lian li case la to send to ian la?

@cablesguy RM 30

@ianho Oh i'll send it to you in on the second week of December if that's the case. I'll PM you then.

@sidewinderz Yah, I'm been thinking of it and seeing how you're doing it as well now... probably will ask for a 120mm hole to cut off some fan noise.

Hot air still goes up...so might as well make use of the conveniently located blow hole to get rid of it. I used to be able to warm just from the heat generated from my computer during winter (with the room doors and windows shut). The moment I opened my door to go the living room, boy was it cold outside.

Haha, my grandfathers tale.

Yeah, the 3M spray is foamy and i haven't had any residual stains in my case after wiping it down. Tried a bit of it on the anodized aluminum and it was fine (although I don't see why anyone would need to do that)

If you guys want, I don't mind letting you guys give the spray a try if you're in subang or anything. Not that i'm advocating this product, but i'd be happy to let you guys give it a try before actually spending RM30 on this and coming back to flame me good. Just drop me a PM. I'm in SS18 and im usually free in the evenings.

Alternatively, you could just knock a cleaning lady out cold at Ikano and give it a try before she comes to her senses...

Can la ... just drop me a PM and bring along some piece of aluminum you wanna try cleaning. If you're happy with it, I can help you buy it since I go to Klan fairly regularly.

Hey, does anys of yous knows wheres to gets small canisters of compressed air? (for busting dust bunnies). I understand you can use just a simple static free cloth but i'd like to use something to get in between small little crevices and sensitive parts (don't want to knock off a cap in an overzealous attempt to get things clean).

Oh sorry, don't think i've seen you post that before. I am fairly new to the forums here. Anyway thanks man. So im guessing it's from Ace hardware?

Nah, I reckon it's for his family. I remember there was this whole heap of new-ish hardware that wasn't for his KingKong worklog.

I really like dealing with him. Real friendly and pleasant to actually talk to

Hey doom, can you actually cover up one of the PSU 'holes' if you dont actually want to run 2 PSU units?

Edit: Lol, oh I saw the cover. Nm. I thought that was your marble floor
