Since getting my computer I've,
∙ cut the original drive covers to fit over the dvd drive and floppy drive
∙ stealthed the cd burner (it's right under the dvd drive)
∙ replaced the 3 factory fans with high performance fans
∙ added an 80mm fan to the side..then cut it bigger and put in a 120mm fan...then finally got rid of that and put in the window with the 80mm high performance fan with the laser cut grill and the blue neon sound responsive light
∙ cut the 2nd 80mm fan hole in the back
∙ cut the 80mm fan hole in the top...i'll be cutting it to 120mm soon.

LOL.

I think you riced out your computer.

Let me guess, you couldn't afford a civic to rice out so you did it to your computer?

My computer tower looks like a normal computer. Its white and stands up. oOo:

Its ok, but its not different. Try something outrageous or something. This is my friends site, it has good reviews on computer hardware and some modding stuff...

I cant imagine EVER spending any money on the case or anything like that. When I had to put in my CD-Burner and DVD drive I just took a screw driver and knocked the hell out of the spaces where they go, and slid the things in, no screws no nothing. Hard drives are laying on the bottom of my case, dusted every week or so. Of course the sides of my computer are popped out cause I'm in it so much -

But neon, and yadda yadda yadda - jesus no fucking way. I look at my monitor, not the computer case.

Hey Absolute, nice job. I built my own system but refrained from doing "case mods" because my shit is under my desk where you can't really see it. I added a few fans for cooling purposes but thats about it. I just keep on top of the hardware updates, thats all.


The world is my urinal

hehe thanks..mine started out with me stumbling upon an overclocking forum...i needed the extra cooling to get the extra mhz on my processor. I'm certain i can go higher once i get some cood active ram cooling. But i'm saving for my car at the moment and don't have any spare cash to slap into my machine for a while.

So let me get this straight. You have a Ricer computer, are about to purchase a Ricer car, and still live with your mom.

I think i'll stick with my 92 Maxima SE, nice computer with good components, and no visual mods, and living with a room mate 300 miles away from home.

Rice is getting pricy now days i guess. Living with parents to afford it, yeah thats the way to get all the chicks. hake:
