    Completed WWII Online case

    To get the monitor in there I took off the back panel, then removed the silver ring it had around it, and drilled out 17 holes in this silver frame. Through each of these holes it mounts to the front plexiglass. I also put a bead of silicon around the black LCD frame so it would not let in air...

    Sometimes on the game I look around for someone to shoot and I wonder the same thing. I have been with WWII Online since it came out. Sure it's a snail race, but it has held my interest for a while.

    Thanks shadowlord. The warmest running items in this build were the HDD and the monitor. The PSU is running with both stock fans removed. And the input fan replaced with a honeycomb flow straightener, and the output is one of the 120mm fans. I am going to add another smaller diffuser and...

    I got around to getting some lighted shots. You can see alot of what is going on with the lights on: I like the lights on those fans, for one I could not get thtem to be switchable, and they glow very faint diffused LED's, not bright like some fans. I was a little worried the...

    This is taking more time than I thought to assemble these parts. Of course I am making sure I don't have to take it apart to fix something later. the keyboard slide took a great deal of time to make everything clear. The wiring is gonna get worse before it gets better. And on paper the...

    Here is the panel with all 17 screws that will hold it in place, and the clear plexi protective cover that hinges on. Looks sick eh? I am glad I left the silver bump ring. the HDD is the only warm running part in this build, and that is with WWII Online running. And because I added a...

    Ok, Now comes the fun part. Tearing apart the Viewsonic 21 inch widescreen. It was not as simple as 4 screws like I thought and the cheap ones I was eyeballing at work. This thing snaps together tight. And I lost the rear mounting plate I thought I would have so the mount will be in the...

    I made some real progress this week. I wanted to get away from the IDE CD drive so I got a SATA Sony drive. Then I had to give it the paint job I did the IDE drive, no such luck the 2 CD drives housings match. This was sanded down to metal and painted with metalcast blue. It will be hard to...

    This thing needs an update, been a while since I did much work, but it is back on track for completion. I got the windowed HD from Western Digital, this unit is so nice And I really like the OCZ memory The passthrough to the keyboard/cd will be through this desk type button. This...

    There is no input fan planned for this case. A flow straightener attached to a fan is running on the PC I am using. But for this new case a straightener will be used to ensure the intake airflow is uniform past the components. Works well for my chipset temps on my current acrylic case...

    I got the metal from Metal Superstore. I don't know if they are just in Oregon. It is grade 6062 1/4 inch aluminum squares. I bought like two 9 foot rods and cut them down to sizes. Then spent about 5 hours drilling out pilot holes, screw holes, lightening holes, and then countersink...
