My IBM Netvista :D

[Thermite Paste]

I recently purchased this case from another forumer, and i love it.





Specs:
-ASRock K7S41GX
-AMD Athlon XP 2500
-512mb Kingston Hyperx PC2700
-Geforce MX440
-40gb hard drive
-Shuttle 250watt PSU
-Zalman 7000b-cu

I don't have a cd drive yet, but i am going to mount a spare laptop dvd drive i have in there, as it's the only thing that will fit. I plan on using this as my backup/spare pc to suit my non-gaming needs. I still have to make an IO plate for the motherboard, and a pci slot cover for the mx440.

Here are the slimcases that newegg stocks. Not the IBM, but similar.

The AOpen resembles it closest.

COOL

I thought I was the only one using Netvista cases

Here's one of my workstations that I have been using for 3 years





Specs are:
Asus TUSI-M
Intel Celeron 1.3 Tually
2x256 PC-133 SDRAM
WD 80 GB 7200 HD
Liteon 52x32x52 CDRW

I changed the LED's to blue. The USB ports required removing one block form the pin holes and I had to use an ATX extension cable to make the stock one work.

I have a second case that I bought about 2 years ago. I was going to put an Athlon XP in it but I found a MSI nForce 6100 board that will fit. Now that I seen the Shuttle PSU fitting in the case, it makes it possible.

I still have to make an IO plate for the motherboard, and a pci slot cover for the mx440.

All you have to do is pull out the Dremel and grind the opening a bit for the I/O plate. If you look at the back of the case, there is a raised ridge. I found that grinding to that ridge was the perfect size to fit any I/O plate that corresponds to the ATX standard size. As for the cover, many mx440's came with the slot for half-height. I am using on-board graphics but my modem came with one, as in the pic. Try Directron for low profile accessories.

I've got an Ispirati case awaiting a new motherboard

I think it used to have a dor on it ( I bought it used from a person who bought it used)
