Ordered a vent cover and dust screen, cut a hole in the side panel for the GPUs intake fan. Yes, I know, I need to repaint my case.

FYI: A Gigabyte 1080 8GBOC will fit with some case modification 😏

nice! I’m running a Ryzen 5 2600 in mine and a GT1030

Just wanted to pop in and let y’all know I got her mostly finished. Gotta create something better than tape to block airflow and drill new holes in the primary cover for the video card. But she runs pretty good (and cool with the main cover off!)

On a side note, got the cpu in. Also installed the cpu cooler and now I’m thinking of a solution for the old fan tray that used to be in here. Side profile picture provided to show overall height of installed components.

That's the beauty of PlastiDip, it can be peeled right off....

Plastidipped my case

Got her all cleaned up and painted!

I got bored today and decided to play around with the tower and got it booted, to xp... Talk about nostalgia... couldn’t boot from dvd drive, I believe the laser is dead. Opened her up to find the optical runs on an IDE and no way to hook in a SATA optical that I had laying around. So I did...

Good deal, the mobo I plan on using has a pretty decent integrated grafx chip, that being said the FSP unit doesn’t have a PCIe connector, which would have been a deal breaker...

Ok I joined this site to literally get a definitive answer on the following question: What form factor mobo is in the s7510n? I’m looking to do a complete custom build utilizing the case only (possibly the DVD/RW, depending on PSU requirements of other hardware). Edit - I found on HPs site...
