Picking up from where I left off..
I modded my case two days ago, here's some pix0rs, I hope you all like it.
This is the first case mod I've actually performed myself, with no help from my dad... and I'm pretty impressed with it.

Plannin it out. Always fun. As you can see the first hole, is drilled.

A crude but useful cutting tool. Used to cut windows in side panels. Takes out small chunks of metal. Quick, easy, safe.

Ahh... muwhhahaah.

....yey! The hole = cut. Now time to drill the fan screw holes.

Black and Decker ftw.

Drilled
. Quite easy as this case is SOOOOOOO thin.

Look's kinda rough but hey...

Place a grill on and it looks ok.. but that's a small grill I jacked from an Antec PSU.

Put a full sized grille on and BAM! Looks great IMO.

Ahh the insides. Like teh neatness? Like teh GeForce 2? Picture a 7900GT in there with a pimp Zalman VF700 CU. Drool!
Hope you like it so far... on to the hardware.
The following part's are pending.
