  1. The 92mm fan is on back order with TigerDirect, and though an unforseen byproduct the effect will remain in place, the owner loves it. So i think that the sleeper is a sucess but with some added benifits!
  2. Ok so the sleeper is done until the 92mm fan comes in for the rear of the case. This is the case up and running, very smooth this machine is crapin' fast, the last thing that it touched that was this fast was my boys BMW M3. Here is a Picture of the case and wire management. I think it
  3. Haa haa haa the word dongle is the best i dont have any lines, but i have to tell you that was some seriously funny stuff.... haa haa haa haa dongle!
  4. so by the time I remembered that I was posting the work that I was doing it was to late to put the crappy MSI n1996 P4 MoBo back in and take pictures so what you folks are getting is the abbreviated version of all of my work last night!! So in the case was a maxtor 80gB HDD, 52x CDROM, 32x CDR, the crappy MSI MoBo with the equally crappy iNTEL 2.24Ghz chip (not sure on the specifics), 300w PSU, 256Mb RAM, and a sweet Xtasy 9600XT / 128MB DDR / PCI card. Sweet for the fact that it is the best piece of hardware in the case and I don
  5. I just thought that it would be a great opportunity to announce another forum is about to start over the next few days I am going to a sleeper rig from 0 to hero and all the info will be here! This is going to be the cranked up sleeper with some amazing equipment but the beauty of it is
  6. :thumbs-up: Nice work Dude thanks for Referencing my forum in it apprecitate the ack! Looks good!
  7. Ok Kids, Here it is the Final Picts, got home from Duty this Morning and put it all together, The buttons gave me a hard time to much paint on them and around the holes but Exacto fixed that. As you can see the color is a bit off but it's cool she likes It! "How many other People have A Monitor Like This!" Our Cozy Office!

  9. The monitors are at the perfect hight for me right at eye level. But i also have an old wooden school teachers chair instaid of an office chair...
  10. Ok, So here we are a few hours later and i have good news and bad news. Its fun, I am high, and i ran out of paint... arg, had to go back to the store. I got more paint and i started to finish the first few coats, to my interest the Fusion has a bit of texture with this color Sunbeam. Notice the texture below. So thats great I guess the Satin clear coat seems to reduce that a bit but my wife isn't going to lan with that PC so I guess that I am ok! The "DEAWOO" and the "Low Radiation" worried me at first they seemed not to get cover up. but after about 10 layers it was all good as you can see below. The main cover came out nicely too. The small pieces came out the best, as you can tell by the buttons and snap in panels. The base lookes the best. See how glossy the satin made it. Well there they all are. I left them to dry, hopefully by tommorw they should be dry enough to assemble. A few tips, - Take your time. - Spray from about a ruler length away. - Lots of coats looks better than one thick Coat!!!! - Have Fun!
  11. The Desk at Staples is not the quality as the one that i got, thats one actually isnt tempered glass on the top and will break if you are not careful. for 50$ more why not go all the way? The store that i got this one is Eurway and the link there will take you to the desk.. I have stood on this desk I doubt that you could do that with the one at staples. So here it is Saturday and the painting will comence shortly, More to follow. Ok, So here we are a few hours later and i have good news and bad news.

  12. This monitor (see above)that I am going to be working on has never been used infact I just pulled it out of its wrapper. As you can see its your standard (arg) beige. (why in God's name that was such a popular color?) So I am going to remove the panels. First I place the monitor face down on its screen and remove the 5 screws that hold the back cover on to the front and the frame. Ocne the cover is off you will find 4 more screws holding the tube to the front cover and 2 for the "mainboard." Remove these and carefully take the tude and the main board elseware, my wife helped me with this as they are not easy to move together. Once that is done you will have all of the parts of plastic to be painted. ... Please note that i have removed all of the buttons and the led so that i can paint them seperatly and not fuse them with the case.... More to follow tommorow...
  13. The Desk Comes from Eurway a "european" furniture store. (Actually in Texas) Pretty awsome that shelf is actually part of the desk, very convient. One of the best 7 days i have every spent was waiting on the thing to arrive. Thank you BTW!

  14. So here it is a Friday, I have decided that the best plan at this point for me is to mod from start to finish. In this forum I plan to discuss a wide range of mod's, including a monitor paint job, a case paint job, an upgrade from two older machine's to one solid core system, and any mods the come up along the way! I find it bothersome that all of these older forums do not include the images and info about where they are starting from and where they want to go and a solid update of their progress. My Below image is the current work space and equipment that i have. My systems is as follows... 3 X NEC accuSync LCD 5v Monitors 1 X 17inch DELL D1025TM Sony Trinitron Monitor 1 X AltecLansing 2.1 Speaker System w/ Sub 1 X APC 900 Watt UPS I hate this fact please forgive... ~Primary System Dell OptiPlex GL260 1.6Ghz P4 1GB RAM 40GB Western Digital Cavar 250GB Western Digital Cavar Sony DVD+RW 16X Dual Layer LiteOn 52X CD-RW AGP Matrox Millennium G450 PCI Trident CyberBlade-XP External USB 40GB Western Digital Cavar 20GB iPOD HP iPAQ 2760 ~Secondary System 60$ case from Compusa (Hate them BTW Dual PII MoBo with 450 Mhz processors with 512 FSB's 512Mb of RAM 3 X 40GB Western Digital Cavar's 4GB SCSI Western Digital Cavar LiteOn 52X CD-RW LiteOn 52X CD-Rom ATI Radeon 32Mb AGP ULTRA Modular PSU 600 Watts UV and Blue Cold Cathods :thumbs-up: My Task's: Paint my Wife's Monitor a Great Canary Yellow to match her keyboard and mouse.
