unknown mod

[Jwbcomputers]

Recently I have been going through my computer parts and found in a corner a case that was not used for anything and did have any logos on it so this is why this is going to be called the
"unkownmod" because i have no idea what case this is and i am going to be doing some modding to it.

I will be updating this case so it looks way better. Its a very small cast that allows a atxboard but it is tight so some of the mods i have planned are to take out the drive cages so there is more room around the board. i will also be taking out the front of the case so i can make a plate that will be cut for a 3 120 mm fans with 15 mm of spacing so i can put a rad in the front other mods have not been planed yet.

so the first thing done is ripping the harddrive cages out

Now that the harddrives are out i cut the front up

i will be getting a piece of metal to put in the front and mod it for a 360 rad.

Looking forward to seeing more! Also, could you add the specs of the components you're going to use?

 

[Jwbcomputers]

i dont know what im going to use yet becuse this wont me my main rig i have some old stuff i might put in there put im still waiting on funds to see if i can upgrade some of the stuff i already have laying around

 

[AverageNinja]

Ah fair enough. Good luck and mod on

I Love the shape of that Mate!

That really looks good so far, keep us posted...

That front panel looks like an idea I had for an old case I have. I'm too broke to put
anything in it, but have been thinking of using what I having laying around and play
with modding the case. I am a major procrastinator, so even if I was not broke and
on disability I'm not sure I'll ever start it.

I really enjoy dreaming by looking at what all the talented people are doing out there.

I decided that i wanted to throw a false floor in.

Got some more work done today with test fitting some of the hardware that i have on hand at the moment





here is a board and psu (the board is atx length but is a little narrow)

look how close that board is to the floor

 

[The Orange One]

Wow! That's really Close!
Good Luck with getting all the connectors in on the bottom though

the only connector i need to the bottom is the motherboard power. i dont have any front usb or a reset switch.

u've done pretty nice work so far.
let me ask you sth
I think after removing that hddcage off the whole case became less sturdy .
the mobos tray was attached on that cage, right? now how will it be supported now?
I also think the holes you opened on the tray should be more circular in order to prevent any damage to the cables passing through
