Project Doh-n8

[Socks]

Right guys...

This is where I have to say :

Due to some unforseen circumstances and a family matter, I will no longer be able to do this build. I have got in contact with everyone who sent parts and will be sending the packages back to them no questions asked.

I would like to thank everyone for their amazing co operation in this build. Im very sad that it never got off the ground, and i think it would be an amazing project and idea when/if ever tried again.

Kind Regards

Right this is the case and this is you challange to mod this peace of junk.

Its in 2 parts (its not supposed to be)

None of the fronts stay on (youll need to find away of fitting them but should not be hard esp if you gonna hack it up)

Every thing is there and you shold have a nice challange making it into some thing diffrent. Has plenty of room for a M-ATX system. If you would like it ill send Monday with hard drives (hopefully 2x). ill thow in a 120mm fan as well and if you need any thing else let me know i have a few spares lying arround and it can all go into a box when i send this.

Im allso going to give you some LED's as well and Risitors for 12V so you can light it up how ever you feel. There will be a mix of 5MM rgb , blue and red.

Ill see if i can find a IDE cable as well becuase the HDs will be IDE but if some one has a SATA this would much better for you and i can give you some sata leads. If you need any switches as well (3 way) i can help out on that end as well.

Dude. Thats amazing....

I will defo have all of that off your hands as well as any spares you have lying about, Im going to be ringing up a few people about some acrylic sheets and maybe some mesh....Have some awesome ideas for what to do. Gonna be putting pen to paper later and creating this beast...

If you need any info, please dont be afraid to ask....

I personally think a childrens charity like great ormand street (uk based ) cancer research or a hospice charity is the way forward dude.

If you are 100% commited to this and the charity cause I will make certain that OC3D give you all the assistance needed in making sure thousands of people know about this.

Kim just came up with the NSPCC. Something along those lines though Tom yeah man for sure. Im gonna be doing this for real.

Especially as Ive found welshy has a mobo for sale, owes him £75, and Jim just came up trumps with a psu. Just need GPU and pref a donated mobo, but i honestly dont mind paying for one....

Assisstance welcomed dude...would love to have OC3D's backing on this one....suggestions welcome

Thanks Tom and everyone else...

Nice little update for everyone

Had some parts arrive yesterday....CPU and GPU

Waiting on the case now. Will be testing the CPU in my brothers rig over the next few days to see exactly what it is.

Good on you mate, for trying to raise some cash for a much needed cause(s). Anyways, could you do a list of what you still need, and I will have a scout round the workshop and see if there's anything I can send your way?

Cheers,

Stu

Yeah man sure...

The parts I still need for this, are:

GPU: 7900 isnt really going to get anywhere in todays world, more power preffered.

Motherboard: A decent board I could get some tidy clocks on, something along the lines of an Asus P5E or Abit IP35 Pro..Nothing extreme. Must be 775, DDR2 or DDR3 depending on RAM chosen.

RAM : Welshys offered me some that needs to be RMA'd but im unsure whats happening with these atm..welshy, get in touch dude...



Materials / Accessories : Anything I could use...Cold Cathodes, Braiding, LED's, Fans, Acrylic Sheeting, or anything like that,

Thanks for the nice comment dude...Keep watching, more to come...

Will you be selling the gpu as u dont need it?

 

[Socks]

If a more powerful gpu does get put in, then this one will also get sold and the money sent to the same charity...
