Paladin | Patrick Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hi, I'm starting the same time my next project. It is a converted Coolermaster CM 690th. Many thanks to Cooler Master that I have the case made ​​available. The name is the motto. Here is an example picture of what it means. So actually the case remains in its original condition. I cut hald many holes in, so that one sees on the hardware. I do sometimes a small list of what is planned now to this: [*:lswwhoqd]Cut case back of a corner, as well as a fan is to be halved, so the CPU also sees cooler because some fins and a heat pipe broached.[*:lswwhoqd]A memory is reduced by half, but that nothing can happen to be ground off the contacts, so the only the PCB is inserted.[*:lswwhoqd]with a graphics card the same thing happens.[*:lswwhoqd]A HDD is cut by.[*:lswwhoqd]Up front a DVD drive is installed, the will also get a cut. Whether the work is still is unclear. If not, we are including a second installed that will go then.[*:lswwhoqd]the ATX cable I want to cut through, you can see the cross section of the cable bundle. Since I will then concealed a 2nd Attach. possibly laterally from the connector. If necessary solder but even if not I am the friend of it.[*:lswwhoqd]what I will do yet, I decide then if I fall over her. Maybe yes come from you or any good tips. Here are some pictures of the untouched state. Today I've already started it. Update is perhaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paladin | Patrick Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Today I finally started with the "Cross-Section" Case. First, I've spent half an tape roll to figure out where I cut holes that clean: D Then it was fate. First of coarse with the hacksaw, and then continues with the separating grinder. I also made a movie that I'm ready but not until tomorrow. Before the question comes on ... the power supply gets a perspex paneling. In the front hole is then later a drive that is also open. This should also work then. So, that's it again ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paladin | Patrick Posted September 15, 2012 Author Share Posted September 15, 2012 Today was not the case further, but in something which is then installed. Here, the victim of a defect 8800GTX ... VIDEO I am about the only thing like time with the angle grinder ago :dremel: That was cut out after it ... not very nice ...first disassembled, all cleaned and filed. The other cover was indeed such an ugly stickers on it. I did not get off. But I was still a 2nd defective 8800GTX lying around. So from then stole the cover. To create later in the motherboard is not shorted, I sanded the pins on the PCB. So, that's it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ch2pa Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Poor GTX Not sure if it's gonna work very well now Good work until now, I like the idea. Will you use the IGP or another "full" gfx card? I also have a suggestion for you: you could paint in red all the cut edges to highlight them.
