Here is a pic of side panel without the perspex as I have been having probs cutting so far. hehe.




I was temp working at a company called Razer and they had these tags lazer cut to attach to their product. I enjoyed the job, and fitted in with the mod. So a little momento for me.

The colour scheme is:

chassis - matt black
case - metalic charcoal, mettalic tropical green, clear gloss.
front bezel - original/some matt black and mettalic tropical green

Im not going much on the lighting thing. I will have a 2x120 green led's. One on perspex and 1 at front. Also a 80mm green led on the other side behind the cpu.

Some more pics......

The draw



The paint job on biezels



And the Cpu cooling tower.



I will have a fan in the middle and rear of tower. It also has a heat sink that attaches to the back of the cpu. That is the little tower which should position just below the top exhaust fan. Also the 80mm will be blowing on the rear Cpu block attached to the mini tower.

Default Pics of my CM-690

Been working on this since May. Paint (yeah, it's purple and silver), lots of cutting and filing for wire mgmt and fans. Left the outside in the factory black and silver (I'm kind of conservative). Still working on the on/off, reset, and LEDs. I don't like them in the original position, but I don't want them on the top - so I'm modding the 3.5" bay pop-out. It's slow going. After that I'll cut the window and put in the acrylic. Four high-speed 120mms, 2 UV active, two plain.

Getting 52-57C on Core temp99 over-clocking the E8400 at 3.753GHz - 3DMark06=17118. That G.Skill has given me plenty of time for mods; had to RMA the originals. Prob should have gotten Corsair. But the beta BIOSes have allowed some improvements to the OC results - now that I have working memory.

I had a retry at cutting the perspex for the window this arvo.

Success!

Tips:

Clamp, clam, clamp and clamp. As close as practicle to your cuts.

Drill - Try to get a blunt one or I found some some drills my F.I.L. had. They look the same but are sort of flat sharpened with a litttle point. __^__

I got a cheap ass hole saw set from bunnings. Not one of the real cheap spring metal type, but a cheap copy of the real expensive ones. Cost around $10 on special. does 20 to 127 mm holes. Clamp down on some mdf, predrill the centre hole and away you go.

Hope to get some pics up tomorrow.

I am test sliding the side panels.

I can get them on no probs, but am having trouble with them sticking and are hard to remove.

The paint is dry. I think it's just cause the coats of paint have bulked up the slide areas a touch.

Any tips for a better slide?

Was thinking a smear of Vaseline.
