I guess if a person likes their case then that's all that matters but IMO, all those case badges, window molding, and white drives kinda bring down the look of the otherwise beautiful YY-0221.

Props to you for putting up with this huge behemoth of a case (I love mine) but I would have probably done quite a few things differently with those mods.

However, this is what makes case modding great, the variety of people and cases involved is simply astounding.

Heh, I don't have a whole lot of respect for pre-mods nowadays but still, that Lanfire is pretty amazing.....I've never picked up an empty case before and LITERALLY almost tossed it off the table. It's almost TOO light. ;) :p

I had no other way to mount the windows than with molding.

The white drives are a bad point, I know. But I wanted windows with Panaflo's so I put them in. Honestly, I always thought my windows looked good. The case badge thing was just for fun.

What about just epoxying them to the inside of the side panel??? That's how I've always considered doing it, saves a lot of extra cutting in some cases and is a lot easier to do. They're just two completely different looks for windows. Some prefer one, some go for the other.....no biggie.

Yeah, but with a door on the case, beige drives are AS bad.....you don't leave the door open 24/7.

I never said anything about the fans being a bad idea but why did you put them on at an angle like that??? It would have looked a little more even IMO if they were square with the edges of the window/case.

I never said they didn't look good.....and yes, the case badge thing WAS kind of silly. ;)

Still a nice case overall, I love my YY.....it'll sure be hard to give her up. :cool:
 
Had to put them like that, the YY has the cross bar and the metal floppy bays and the fan wouldn't have cleared the other way

I took the door off because it just gets in the way. (I am sure you know, your a YY owner)

I put Panaflo's all the way around because I hate noise with a passion.

Ah, ic.....I guess they're alright like that then. ;) :p

Yeah, well.....it's not the fact that it just gets in the way.....but the fact that the whole case is heavy duty steel and the door is that cheap plastic. I don't typically mind doors on cases but the YY's door is too flimsy and awkward NOT to be a pain. :rolleyes:

Heh, noise doesn't bother me a whole lot. I've never really had a silent computer though so I guess I don't really know what I'm missing. :cool:
 
i wish it were mine. i liked it so much i thought id post it...

It's a cool box, but I saw the final specs and they weren't that hot. It looks good, but the internals are nothing hot.

Exactly, just to have it all the same. I personally think it looks fairly nice too.
 
I think it looks horrible, looks kind of like those fish net caps cafeteria people wear.

It is braided. It is very stiff and doesnt kink. It does look kinda odd, but I have some tight bends and the reg clear shit use to kink like hell on me. ;)
 
To each his own. I personally like it also, but if I thought it looked horrible I would have kept it to myself.
 
hmm, maybe I'm just to tired to be posting but what's with the yellow wire going straight through the case??? :confused:

***correct***
I have a 80mm fan at the yop of my case, but i broke a fin off so i had to take it out. So that's why there is an empty 3 pin fan plug.

Ahh, I don't know why I never thought of that after having my fair share of Tornado fans and others that DID have a dedicated RPM wire. :rolleyes:

Heh, back to bed. ;)

Actually, a sucking configuration can be just as effective as a blowing configuration. There is no "wrong" way.

Yeah, it's just that some heatsinks work better with it one way and others perform better with the opposite.....that's all. ;) :D
 
It is backwards, when i took the picture i was testing how well it works when the fan is fliped.

And how was it??? I know some people prefer the fan to be sucking OFF the heatsink with a lot of Swiftech heatsinks but I wasn't sure about Thermalright SLK's. I much more like the idea of having the fan blowing ON the cooler with an intake feeding air into the fan but hey..........that's just me. ;)

It works a lot better blowing on the heatsink, atleast 3 degrees Celcius cooler.

Cool, as long as you can verify from experience it's all good. I hate people that just assume they're right.....whether they are or not.

I can tell you from experience that my cpu dropped exactly 3c when i "went from suck, to blow!" (name that movie and i'll give you $10)
 
the movie is spaceballs, and they are talking about the maid with a vacum space ship that is going to suck the atmosphere and air from planet druidia and bring it to planet spaceball.

my paypal is zac@1stclasspcs.com
