1st thing was to make a big side window for it.

Next up was the top 120mm blowhole.

Then it's to the front where I improved the intake with a 120mm front intake fan plate. I made a custom fan plate that occupies 3 rom slots. I also cut 1 of the free rom slots n installed 2 temperature LCDs. I used a Sunbeam 3D fan grill to give it sum bling bling too.

The LCDs r from teckhooi's(Project JAWS owner) bulk. Very nice n cheap. Oni rm20.
I cut the rom cover n put the LCDs in the hole. Quite difficult coz the gap between the hole n the LCD frame is oni about 1.5mm. Need to measure 10 times, cut once. laugh.gif

Ya the black frame is the LCD itself. The difficulty is the mounting n cutting of the aluminum rom slot cover. The frame oni has a 1.5mm gap inside to the body of the LCD. So the square hole I had to cut in the aluminum rom slot cover is a square hole which is 1.5mm smaller all around. Absolutely no margin for error. Any errors will show up outside of the frame coz it's just such a teeny weeny gap. They really shud make the body of the LCD smaller so that the mounting holes can be simpler to make. A 5mm gap to the frame wud b so much better. Oh well, I suppose we cant be too picky since the LCD is so cheap at oni rm20 each. laugh.gif
