HAHA...you think thats illuminated, you should see my TINY Shuttle XPC

. Lets see what I got goin on here...Ok, I have 3 drives, which includes a DVDRW, and 2 hard drives which all have green Fire Fly's in the power connectors. EVERY wire is sleved with some color UV Reactive Sleving, I have 2 4" UV Cold CAthodes on each side, Green round IDE Cable, a few UV and blue led's all around the board for multiple things, and a Blue quad LED Aluminum Fan (and I still am not done, I got half of the things I Got for it installed).

if I wanted my computer to look like crap I could have filled it with lights... much like you just described.

EDIT: thanx for providing us with a pic, made it much easier to visualise the crap... I feel sick now.

nFiniteTuning · 01-23-2005, 05:19 AM

looks just as much like crap as your setup does

Which I think your setup looks good and has potential to look better. I know you didn't install those slow *** fans to cool the **** off, because I was lucky with this peice of **** blue led fan blowin enough to keep my cpu cool enough. They aren't made to cool. Just for looks. So I will do something unlike you, and I will be nice and complement your setup.

I bought the fans becuase they were cheap, and all I could afford.... they move a reasonable amount of air probably what they are specified to do, but I'm not sure about the dB level.

I just know that compared to my oem fan that came with the ICE heatsink...this blue Aluminum one sucks. It looks good tho. My cpu stays at 48degrees celcius with it, and it drops down to around 40 with the oem fan.

what gets me with some people that mod cases is they think the *bigger light show* is a uber geek factor of the pc realm

frodobaggins · 01-23-2005, 05:44 AM

Can you guys be nice to each other ?

SAScooby · 01-23-2005, 06:07 AM

Well I think its pretty cool, lots of effort gone into it, I think some people would be more inclined to comment if you stated your goals, objectives and troubles with the case mod !

I have also been busy with my case mod and am aware of just how much time it takes, not to mention the effort, so way to go

but as a constructive criticism point, you covered half your molex wires in black but then left a whole bunch uncovered ? why ? then ifyo uwant to make your hard drives look slick, mount them with connectors facing the front of the case, run the power down the "right" side of the drive cages, you got half the thing going with the ide cables so follow that on, my goal at the moment is to find some way of tidying up the front button/mobo connectors

but good job and what does it sound like with all those fans going ?

jjh221 · 01-23-2005, 12:56 PM

I wonder, does it use a lot more power for all those lights?

And ntuning... you have a clear case for your shuttle?

nFiniteTuning · 01-23-2005, 04:43 PM

no, I dont have clear anything for my case yet. I've just left the cover off of it... I decided to not do it, since the shuttle mobo is goin inside of a CD Changer Case. So I'm gonna use the rest of the stuff to mod my new case for my MSI Neo2 Mobo.

I have a 250W SilentX PSU, I have no problems with the lights.

I think neverstock's setup looks nice. I complemented his stuff. So I was getting along by not being an ***.
