Post A Pic Of Your Pc Here :)

[Kornowski]

My graphics cards were getting pretty hot, so I decided to take 'em out and give them a clean. While I had them out I had the idea of putting more fans on the front to blow some cool air in directly at the bottom. As the bottom card wasn't getting much at all.

I was originally going to try and add an 80mm fan at the front, but I didn't have any that weren't super loud (high CFM) or had Green LEDs. Then I remembered I had an OCZ XTC RAM cooler lying around, which had two Blue LED 60mm fans in it. So I stripped them out and cleaned them.

I tried cutting some foam I had to try and cover some of the front bezels, but it didn't really work;

So I just cable tied the fans together, then cable tied them to the two spare bezels I had;

Then I threw a 120mm fan in the case, angled slightly so it'd point directly at the two graphics cards;

I'll get some better pictures, but this is the result so far;

That is looking really good the 60MM fans looks awesome shinning threw makes me won't to paint and mod mine but my case isn't worth it lol.

Looking great dan,

Daymmm...that cpu cooler is massive ...if you ever decide to sell her let me know.

Is that a fan controller i see going into the top of your expansion slots?
where you get it from?

I might buy a new fan controler,Mine only allows control of 3 fans....i now have 4 running at full speed ,Its not all that noisy because theyre good fans but i would like like to control them.

If you have not seen mine yet....

...not got all the cables like i want...added my extra gig of ram and doing my side panel tommorow

 

[Ramodkk]

Excellent work Danny. Like Shane said, we really need to make a CF modding team or something

 

[patrickv]

@ patrickv....looks good man,I reckon a spray job + cold cathodses and an aftermarket cpu cooler would look awesome in your system.

yeah thats what am after, blue or red colored ones but I can't seem to find any here

Those suckers look like they blow some AIR.

Haha, you'll be first to know if I ever decide to sell it

Fan controller? I did have one in there, but I took it out, I didn't really use it, it was just taking up space. In fact, I have one for sale (I think I'll sell it) if you're interested. It'll let you control 4 fans, it has 4 temp sensors you can put in your case and it'll tell you how many watts you're using.

Man! That looks awesome, really tidy! Awesome work, Shane! I can't wait to see your side panel, don't forget to post some pictures up, it'll look awesome!

Thanks, Omar. Yeah, for sure we do. Why don't we start a thread, and we can link to all the mod threads people have done. We can use it as a general modding question thread, too.

Yeah, they aren't too bad. Not too sure what CFM they are, but they do the job.

Here's the case all back together now. GPU temps dropped from 58c idle, to 45c. Don't know what the load temps are yet though.

Yeah thanks,Even though my cpu cooler is okay...i think i could get better temps.

Whats teh name of that fan controller?

I should (fingers crossed) have my panel cut today....ive got to pick up some blades for my Jig saw as the ones i have now are crap and i dont want to wreck my side panel

How easy was your cable managment dan? mine was a nightmare...seriusly i didnt think the cabels would reach lol

 

[linkin]

It's the Zalman ZM MFC2.

Awesome, I'm really looking forward to seeing the final outcome!

Far from easy, it was a nightmare. Once you've got it done though, it's not too hard to move a few things around. Mine wasn't so much the length of the cables, but trying to fit them all behind the MOBO tray.

Haha, there's no space at all... for anything.

How much you looking for that fan controller?

Its the one with LCD display right?

 

[Ramodkk]

Danny, looks like your case manages light flow instead of air flow with all the blue LED light

Thanks, Omar. Yeah, for sure we do. Why don't we start a thread, and we can link to all the mod threads people have done. We can use it as a general modding question thread, too.

Well, what are you waiting for? Lol just kidding. I'll PM you a list with mod thread links, I guess you can take it from there, I mean, you're the thread-maker for things like this, lol

[kazkepox]

yeah true, o been on this thread for weeks and still ain't got the hang of it lol.

 

[Fatback]

I havent posted mine in a while

Cable management is not the best with my case especially combined with the long cables of a corsair PSU.

My side fan quit working I'm not going to bother replacing it because i'm about to get a new case.

Not a bad chair somebody gave it to me for free after my lazyboy broke threw the orange throw over it and now it doesn't look so bad.

My other setup just a basic internet PC threw a bunch of parts I had laying around in it.

 

[kazkepox]

for pieces just "laying around" I say you did pretty good, perfect for work and internet. lol we also have the same printer (just noticed) once again perfect for work.

Yea it's not to bad once I get my new case for my gaming rig I will throw everything into the other case. I never hardly use my printer I only bought it because it was on sale for $30 at walmart I have had it for a year and have never replace the ink in it lol. I have about 20 other computer laying around most just need RAM, HDD, or a OS after I get finished upgrade my gaming rig I'm going to start fixing them up and selling them.
