Ive done a circle window mod. I called it a porthole it kinda looked like it.

That sounds like it could be cool. If you could make the window with the lian li fish tank mod it would be awesome. blink.gif

i've do that mod too but i think it's called a blowhole
Ziggy54354
u could put metal around it too so it looks like a ship or soemthing
Special_K
yea this is a blowhole, i guess you could call it a porthole. this is what your talkin bout right?
Mr_Yuck


I mean like this but with window instead of mirror.
Special_K
whoa what would you use that for?
Mr_Yuck
cut hole in side panel, put porthole on, I want one that opens and that I can put clear glass or lexan in. So instead of a boring window like everyone else, have an antique porthole, with green or red cold cathode lights. Maybe "torpedo" tubes on the sides, which hold the front panel connectors, maybe anohter porthole with a fan in it. I dunno, just an idea...the submarine pc or "The PT PC"

Thats a great idea! I especially like that the window can open independantly from the case panel. Its awesome. smile.gif

Yeah. Kinda dull grey with some splotches and streaks of rust. That would be sweet.

Along the same vein, I was thinking of doing a fighter jet case... but not for myself. Don't know who to do it for. Anybody want one? It'll only cost you $400. tongue.gif
