Default My Custom Pc Case Build



ok so my new build to finish for the summer the layout inside of the case may change as i have new ideas but the outside will stay the same

what i am using

2 full size towers
4 120mm Akasa fans with noze cones
2 small fans (do not no the size)
perspex window

the hole case will be on wheels as its so big! watercooling everything including ram! pc will be replacing my old one due to needing an upgrade there will be at least 4 500GB hdd 2 power supply one for system 750w and one 300w for fans cathrods and front 7inch lcd screen only (7inch lcd is not a main monitor!)the side panels will be replaced with a full size door on a hinge and the hole lot sprayed gloss black. thats all my ideas at the minite but i doo change things as the build goes forward as better ideas spring up as i build

some might say this case is over the top and too big but thats what am aiming for over the top

components not known yet as i havent got that far.going to consintrate on the case first. going to be alot of body filer and sanding yet

i will post back with pictures and videos as i build for thoses interasted ideas are aso welcome
it looks abit getto at the min but when i start filling and blending it all in it should look like the design
some more pictures of the build so far

chop the front to give me access to mounting the fans inside case


smoothed holes on front and attached the front on (did you realise there speaker covers?



front again filled a big gap in it and i will be mounting the USB & audio into it (middle bottom)







waiting for filer to set then sand and re filler were its needed as you sometimes get bubbles
total cost so far £ 4 (body filler)
i put an advertisement on a local second hand website asking for all pc geeks to donate anything mainly cases
and god did my phone ring lol in return i keep them up to date with build and they were more than happy to help us out(geeks stick together i think ;-)

so am back :) still loads to do but its getting there

sand/re filler and more sand sand

2 usb .1 speaker jack 1 mic jack

its very hard to show you just how nice the paint has dried as my camera wont show you as its so dark.i will try later in the build to show you no finished coat of paint yet going to re coat about 7 more times then a clear gloss over it to protect it


two morrow cutting windows in the doors and spraying inside of case white as it will Glow a purple/blue colure when uv cathrods installed.should look nice with uv green cable sleeving and green uv watercooling pipes
