SFF case competition.

Hey all,

seen this competition on a modding website: http://www.cpcff.co.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=14877

looks like it will be interesting and I might enter it, i've got an idea of paper with measurements etc though it will mean putting my other mod on hold

Hmm, definitely a thread to be watching.

Although it's not a complete build this has to be the best SFF effort I've seen recently:

Just emailed a couple of places to get a quote on the materials needed, the overall width should be something around:

308mm (L) * 268mm (W) * 243mm (H). I don't want to scan in the design at the moment as one, it's not complete and two, someone in the comp could see it. Though what I will say is think 'micro lian li'.

Ok lian li v300

Ok lian li v300

slightly smaller

haven't seen the insides of that, though looking from this pic:

the front won't look like that, and different way of cooling/ intake.

Got a quote for the alu for the panels, will be around £25 so half the budget! Don't think the frame material will be more than £15 so I guess I won't be painting this! Though i've got another idea on how to get a nice finish.
