Tin Foil Pc

[Barry]

Firstly, I know its actually aluminium foil, but tin sounds cooler.. And this probably is in the worng forum.

My PC has been giving our houses digital some headaches, such as no reception what so ever when my PC is on. So instead of buying a new case sans-windows, I raided the larder.

The results:

I know, its pretty leen. I found an old, longer power switch and extended it out of the case, covered the windowd panel, and the drive bays, while leaving the front 'slots' open to feed my radiator. Just check the DVD drive hole. You don't get that sort of quality on a Lian-Li

and does it actually allow u to get reception? or does it just look good? lol

Looking good apart from you could have made it a bit more neat around the DVD drive bay.

Does your pc heat up more becasue of it? It seems like it would.

I was going to paint the SFF case for Tox but after seeing this its Aluminum foil FTW!:worship:

I wont have to worry about fitting corners, sanding, primer or even shape now, just use a box of foil and voila.

All I need now is a "Clapper" for the on/off switch.

No temp increases. I failed to add I also ghetto rigged a 120mm fan over the NB, VRM, CPU and MOSFETS with rubberbands. :worship:

Wow and i thought i was bad for zip tieing a 90mm fan to my FX5600ultra and a 120 to the side of my case in 2004.
