Since the missus is not around for a while.. it's time to banish what used to be the defunked Project Littlebit from its pathetic cardboard casing to a new one..

Enter Project Sumpron!!

Basically the main point is to squeeze everything into the smallest possible casing and at the most minimum cost (which is already over-budgeted kau kau di)

The heart is still the old Mobile Sempron + S754 micro-atx board.



Past couple of days has been planning and planning...initially planned to use wood but then the office had some renovation recently and I scored a couple piece of acrylic.



For cutting while watching movie....I used this scraper



Fitting seems ok... very tight



More updates soons

What u trying to get to men ??? any more hint ??

Looks like gonna be a very small case... but wont it'll be rather hot inside there

y don change to this mobo?


Albatron KI51PV-754

TS, is it gonna be like a paper box with acrylic sidepanel?
Wanna ask, wat pci card is that?

Just a nbtd box niah....don't expect bling

That's the whole point of this exercise..small case..as quiet as possible...hopefully not too hot.

It cost RM880 for the board alone!! There's a cheaper alternative which is also ITX form factor using Radeon Xpress200M that's used in HP's Slimline series... but still... already have a board so didn't wanna pay extra.

Naw... not gonna have any transparent stuff of bling. It's a WLAN card.

uncle, hopefully we will see more progressive work from u
not like last time (joking joking )

Kakakka...I target completion before uncle ian complete his king kong

Nice name for the project.I'll be patiently waiting,Ambassador of Lian Li

Apalar ambassador of Lian Li... I'm not even using an Ahlian these days.

Anyway.. update for tonight:

The initial plan was to use a crossflow fan but there's some fitting problems so I'll have to go with another setup.

So started with a standard K8 heatsink:



4 reinforced disk later:



Test fitting:

Got two questions here:

1) Why "Horny"?
2) Why did u cut the HSF?

wow.. uncle.. nice small pc

this fan blowing down?

Im not sure the answer for the 1st question.Haha.

But for the second one i think so that can fit?

looks like its sucking air out
