Some Small Mods...

Took the dremel to the front to allow more air to get through...

Before:

After:

Then took the thing that snapped the fan onto there, and took the dremel to that to allow more airflow and to make it look cooler

Before:

After:

Then decided it was time to mount the on/off button for the CCFF - i wanted it in the front, so i decided to put it in a spare 3.5" floppy bay....

Before:

After:

What does everyone think??? Just a few very small mods i know, but sometimes those make all the differance....

O, heh...I don't have cold cathode in my case, but does it power up any other device? Where did u get it?

just powers on the cold cathode.... accually toggles it between on and sound activated on.... which is nice.... i got that, along with a case from maxcooler.com - great deal... They sent me one to review for my site ReviewNation.com

I have the same case as u, but I have a cheap window on the side with a 92mm side intake, also a 92mm Blowhole.

Did you make room for the front intake, on the outside of the case? by the USB plugs

as much room as i could.... in the future, i plan on puttin a few holes in the side of the front bezel to allow more air to come in, as well as expand the front intake to a 92mm hole... I then also plan to add a top blow hole to the top, and somehow add more cooling to the back of the case which lacks in the exhaust department....

I have videos of the sound activated CCFL that will be posted in the review when it is posted if anyone is interested......
