Gday Guys

This is my first post on this site.

I bought a CM690 and wanted to mod one. This thread came up in my search and has inspired me.

I have finished the chassis, front and top. I am in the procees of completing the sides. Working with the perpex is proving to be a challenge. I will post more pics as I complete.



Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you...........



The CM690 "Razer"





One little prob I am having is gaps around the bay device facias. I know from experience that these can be dust magnets. Any tips on how to seal around them?

cheers

Bobbavet

I found a way to install the 2 top fans without being too obtrusive into the chassis and without having to cut the plastic grill pattern off the top.

I cut the grill work out of the chassis top and made up cradle brackets for the fans. The fans now sit half and half off top chassis wall and the plastic grill fits over them.



Finished the side panels.





*************************************
An update and some new pics.

Bought some goodies for inside the case:

e8500

GA-EP45-DS4P mobo

Corsair DOMINATOR 4GB (2 x 2GB) PC2-8500 (1066Mhz) with fan cooler

Corsair HX 620 PSU

A 9400 gt to get me up and running then throw in my 260 gtx. Will probably keep 9400 in for a PhysX card.

That's a very nice mod.

How did you mod the fan controller to get that colour?

Hey, i got this case, but no matter what i do i cant reach my mobo with the main 24 pin connector or the 8 pin connector, if i try to cable manage them and put them behind. Even if i did cut a hole closer to the top it couldnt reach. I had to put the power supply upside down to even get near the 8pin connector. I have a 500w rosewill right now, with an intel d975xbx2 mobo.

Just curious if there are any power supply for under 100$ that could reach those plugs.

The Skythe KamaMeter has a backlight colour that you can change. 7 colours.



Also 3 choices of beizel colour, black, silver or white.

I do have to admit that I photo-shoped the green display in, as I cannot actually turn it on at the moment lol.
