okaey doke in my last post i got the asus m2n e sli deluxe motherboard for $40 bucks in my budget build.

now i got the case arriving tomorrow or the day after. got the thermal take tsunami. for $60 bucks.

was planning on doing some modding to itbut dont have the faintest idea how to so any help would be appreciated.

thanks

**stressfreesoul** · 06-04-2008, 01:21 PM

What do you want from your build? Want it to look like mine? All glowy and shiny? Or do you like more subtle details, like shiny black grilles instead of gaping windows?
Thing is, none of modding a case is really that difficult. If you go to Youtube there are plenty of professional tutorials on there, search for "MonsterMawd".
What case you got depicts whether you have free reign on what you can do. My black case was probably very cheap, but I was lucky to get a flat & relatively easy to mod side panel. Yeah sure it has a vent or two, but these just mean less metal to cut away for a bigger window!! Whereas my white case looks like this...

Those light grey areas to the right of the vents are more damned vents. Awkward little punch hole vents.
So do you see what Im getting at? As it is a budget build, basic DIY and working with what you've got is the order of the day!!

**stressfreesoul** · 06-04-2008, 01:25 PM

emosun...
I decided to try the mirror after all. I can always peel it off if I get bored!!

**emosun** · 06-04-2008, 02:21 PM

Interesting , lol. I too got to the mod nation. already did an old antec case and going to do a dell one too. Just scooped up a case on ebay for 26$. It has 8 80mm fan holes! lol. All of which need to be drilled out.

My new laptop. HP DV9000 series (9815). considering my negative biasment of vista, i'm SLOWLY learning.

.

I know it's strange seeing a wired network cable plugged into a laptop, but i found out that synergy KM switch doesn't exactly like wireless connections. I'm using the desktop mouse combined with the laptop keyboard, but I can use the desktop keyboard too if i want to. really like the media remote.

Sunday, there were about 12 units in my area. Wednesday, there were 4 (2 stores, 2 units each) as of 8 am. I stopped by the location i knew first at noon- they were out, but said the other location still had 2. Went ober there in an hour, they had 1 left- and I took it.

Abilene was the closest store with the laptop...talk about selling fast!
