My computer (work in progress)

Post by DragonFury »

This is a mod I been working off and on for a while now, I had to put it off for a while because of life kinda gotten in the way of things (as it always does from time to time). So I decided to pick up where I left off at. But before I went right into the modding I needed to make sure I was on the right track with my chassis. So it looks like hell right now. I have to wait for things to warm up a bit more and get a replacement chassis so I can finally finish it. I will be repainting this chassis once again because after sitting for a while getting kicked around ruined the finish.

The chassis I am modding is my Cosmos 1000.

Image
this is how it is currently. Told ya it looks like hell.

Image
my window mod I done to the chassis, I cut this out with a jigsaw and then filed it into shape.

Image
I did not like the way Cooler Master did the top buttons and the USB ports, so I decided to add my own flair to it. I will be placing the USB ports on the back removable panel.

Image
This is the removable top back panel, I cut out the center of it and will be adding a deflector and a grill in this area.

Image
But I need to add some plexi glass to the inside so I have something to work off of.

Image
The paint I am going to spraying this chassis is going to be 2 colors, but it will be shifting thru 4 different colors. this is looking at the Green/Purple color paint.

Image
the other color I am using is a Blue/Red paint.

My lighting was not allowing the color shift to the other colors :(.

Image
A quick look at the internals of the chassis. It is a complete mess in there.

Image
Looking at the 6970 video cards with Koolance water blocks. I ran these in parallel with each other. the brass band you see is making sure the two video cards stay together.

thas cuz imagshak is rllly gud

but it doesn't use shockwave so it is better than photobuck3t by default

also nice looking system, surprised you went with the cosmos as it's pretty much a classic at this point

Thank you, I haven't really seen a chassis that looks good, most are a box with sharp edges. Lian LI, and Silverstone chassis are way out of my price range.....
