My SuperLanboy Case Mod (Pics)

I did actually notice it, and wonder what it was.

yeah i noticed it to, it doesn't look bad though IMO. I have a question if you don't mind, can you see through the mesh into the case?. I might some of the black mesh but wouldn't want the inside totally blocked off.

black honeycomb mesh would look amazingly fantastic! Mite consider that when i get my case or try it first on this shed of a case. :rolleyes:

Yes you can see into the case when its lit from the otherside. At the moment i've only got the front fan led, and i can see through the front half of the case. but the back is dark so you cant see anything on the other side

looks nice, gd job

Looks nice also im not a fan of these cases.

Doesnt having a mesh side panel kinda play havoc with case cooling as it will just leave through the side of the case.

It would be a slight problem, but you are assuming he had the cooling setup perfect before, most people don't so it should not make much difference, especially with the other fan.

v1000+ take the side panel off and the temperatures go sky high.

You'll need a lot of mesh to cover a dragon

Nice one.

Wyvern971 · 26 Jul 2006 at 19:04

Nicely done, have you considered replacing the plastic at the front with mesh?

I have considered that, it is harder than you might think

Although the mesh I have is steel not allu

Edit: I am going to be painting the Lanboy Black and buying proper meshx/modders mesh so ignore how crap this is. Was done in 5 minutes with no tools so consider it a mock up.

Yewen · 26 Jul 2006 at 20:01

Raikiri that needs a surround around the mesh, or some giant screws with visible mounting as it looks like its just floating about.

Raikiri · 26 Jul 2006 at 20:04

Like I said mock up >< and it is floating... telekinesis +1

When I do it properly it will be mounted using long bolts going into the fan which I will paint (the visible parts) black so they are hard to see.

Yewen · 26 Jul 2006 at 20:10

Personally I think it would look better with them visible.

How about a project log?

Lots of people wanted to see a sticky, which I can get done but I need the logs! I may see about another solution however.

Raikiri · 26 Jul 2006 at 20:11

I will get ones with chrome heads then so they match the screw covers going around the window

I shall take pictures as I do the painting/window etc. and I will write a project log

Bah, derail my thread of glory
