QUOTE(PoorMe @ Apr 19 2009, 05:18 PM) Nice work there bro, Sad n sry to hear that May ur father RIP.. Coz now gfx cards are much hotter than CPU. So it's better to have the gfx cards above the CPU.BTW what the use of normal ATX swtich to BTX? any different between them? can someone explain some here... Thk u in advance.

They r the same to u coz u havent tried top of the line gfx cards in SLI. Once u try a top line rig with quad cores n SLI u will really understand the need for better cooling. Normal ATX just isn't enough. |

 So, in order to flip the motherboard-tray... you only have to take 3 rivets out, drill holes on the other side, and just flip it? is that all?? sounds pretty simple to me.   How about cutting a window in the side panel, do you have any special recommendations to avoid damaging the material/finish??  how do you operate the dvd drive?? below the dvd drive, is that a 3 1/2 bay? do you see any problem installing a 3 1/2 bay multi-Card Reader?  where did you find the brush aluminum to do the front custom panel? now that you have had both (the black Tj07 and the silver one) which one did you like the most? I see a lot of black one online, so I'm thinking of getting a silver one Final question Not that it matters... but, who came first? (the chicken or the egg) Both builds have many things in common   thanks! This post has been edited by errror404: Sep 9 2009, 03:30 AM |

1. Flipping it sounds simple until u try it. Ur hands will start shaking at the thought of drilling a rm1300 case. It also requires precision work to remount the mobo tray accurately
2. Standard practice of using masking tape, then cut. 3. Just press the alu panel where the button is. Alternatively u can just right click the drive Icon n select "Eject" 4. 3.5 bay is untouched, u can put anything u wish in there. 5. Brushed aluminum comes from Lian Li side panels I bought. 6. I did my mod waaaaaaaaaaaaay before Murdermods. Looks like they ripped my ideas big time. Actually quite a few companies ripped my idea for the front panel. Scan UK did it with perforated panel and stealth DVD too. This post has been edited by ianho: Sep 9 2009, 03:14 PM |

(double side tape?) QUOTE 3. Just press the alu panel where the button is.

That's a pretty good idea, I was thinking on using the the material taken from the window cut / side panel... but I was worried it will not be enough (also no room for mistakes)QUOTE I did my mod waaaaaaaaaaaaay before Murdermods.

Scan UK did it with perforated panel and stealth DVD too. lol... take it as a complement!I did a quick search in google image for "Scan UK" but couldn't find it thanks a lot! oh wait, you forgot to answer one question  Base on your own opinion / personal preference... which case looks better: the black one or the silver one?

It's what I call the Matrix chair. The actual model I got is called the Ergo Human EH. It's so looooooooooooooovely.  This completes my dream workstation. Totally 1337 monitors, chair, PC, blinged up TJ07 case. Perfect, just absolutely perfect. Once I complete the TJ07 build, I will take a pic of the whole revamped King Kong II Workstation. Here's sum pix of the chair. Fantastic chair next to my fantastic case.   Look at the lovely design, perfect lumbar n neck support. All nice n lovely curves on the aluminum construction just like the TJ07.    This chair is so perfect it's fully adjustable. The seat pad can adjust in or out, seat height up n down, seat back angle, seat back height, headrest height. everything is adjustable.   Now all I need is to finish up the TJ07 build to make my workstation perfect. |
