Random Server Case Build

[Pulse]

today me and benjo were sat around in his room and feeling rather bored so we thought "we need to be creative!" after numerous ideas of what we could do we decided to start a server case mod as he had an empty server case sat under his desk that he was planning to mod but never got round to, instead we decided to dismantle 2 of 3 pc's he had lying around his room and grab my box of goodies and see what we could make and see how far we could push it. so far we havent got very far and its taken use the best part of 4 hours just to do what we have

our case just testing a pretty pants psu that we shoved in there and using the cathodes to test that the power is on

our goodies that we was planning to put in there

after we changed for a decent S12

after we had added some fans though you can only see one and the cathodes properly placed, the harddrives are in.

gonna continue it sometime soon but i dont know when we will be able to get together again to continue

yer it is, its going to have a nice old P3 500MHz, 256MB ram, 9200/9250 gfx (we're not sure what it is) and 160GB harddrive space. and for now we're just going to whack huge heatsinks to anything we can and clock the pants right off it. going to get it plenty of cooling with several 80mm's and 1 120mm fans

one of our friends actually got it from our old secondary school when they had a re-fit of all the computers. in total i think we had

3 CPU's
5 Sticks of RAM
7 CD Drivers
4 Floppy Drives
8 Harddrives
3 Graphics Cards
6 Case Fans
3 Sound Cards
about 100 modem cards
3 PSU's
and enough cabling to wrap around the world at least once
