I will I will i promise! Its just i cant do exactly what i wanted to do. There is no room to fit a 120mm fan so maybe you guys can help before i paint it? Its just i took the pics and they got lost when Christmas came around cause somebody deleted them off the camera :angry:

I'm sorry to hear that the pictures you've taken have lost (...or deleted by someone...:frown: ).

I hope you can take the pictures again and post them here, so hopefully we'll be able to help you out...;-)

GOOD LUCK and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!! :icon_tiphat:

I suppose thats what i get for not having my own camera.

[PP Mguire]

Alright as i promised PICS!!
I went ahead and finished the job and took pics along the way.
I started at 2:30AM and ended at 9:30AM with all PC parts, fans, cases clean and put together.
Heres the mess i had in my room lol

Since i lost the first pictures i just took a picture of the server for reference to what it looksed like.

I then painted the case and let it dry for a second coat.

I then put a new Zalman passive heatpipe on her Geforce3 TI500.

Heres what it looks like compared to a Voodoo5 5500. Almost as long as it! lol

I know i didnt do much but she now has a quiet fast PC to play her Sims2 on. I also added a black WD 120gig HD from her 30gig lol.

At least you took the time to smear vaseline on the lense before you took those pics. ;-)

Good job with the mod though, looks very clean.

I have started to take a liking to cases that are not "glossy" so nice paint job.

[zachig]

Though the pictures are not in high-quality, it seems like you did a quite good paint job. The case looks nice...so well done, PP Mguire!!! And...like you said, at least she has a quiet PC now...;-)

Thanks for the pics, and if you'll some more pics (better quality, if possible), don't hesitate to share them with us...:icon_tiphat:

[PP Mguire]

Yea sorry about that. My gf let one of her stupid friends borrow the camera again and they always change my settings. As you can see i made it clear after i realized what had happend. The first few pictures are nasty and the others are nice.

Is it me or did some one spike the punch on New Years... oh the image is so fuzzy..Oh wait its just the pictures....:ahhhhh: .. . **! **! **!....

Good luck with your build, and keep the pictures coming, helps give me some ideas.

[PP Mguire]

Hey hey now, not ALL of them are fuzzy!

[mousiness]

dude your girlfriend got her creamsall over your cam!!! lol jk, great performing PC for her needs and clean and slick looking, real orgnised

[PP Mguire]

I try to keep my PCs all looking nice like that for looks and best airflow. She didnt have the greatest of PCs and The Sims2 actualy lags a bit on medium settings but with the heatpipe i was able to OC the TI500 further and it smoothed the performance out.

Really all i did was paint the inside black and install her machine. My original idea was to cut out a 120mm fan hole in the front of the case and install the 120mm Antec red Tri-LED fan i gave her. Well the case is really cheap and i couldnt fit the fan on the inside, or the outside. And there was really no way of modding it to put it in either. So i took the server case (identical as seen in pictures) and swapped. So her case was not cut and the server has a 120mm fan hole thats completely useless. I then painted her case and installed. My next thing now is to get 3 Red quad LED fans (prolly Thermaltake or Coolermaster) and some red cathodes to put in her case. I wanted her to have a red theme but i just couldnt do it at the time. :/
