how about mounting a notebook cd-rom, a mini-itx mobo (or pico-itx), an hdd, and then another full system in there? Could be interesting, if you made it all sleek like with an integrated KVM or something.
I thought about using it for multi motherboards... But I really got to get it home before I can see what will and will not fit...Quote:

I wont have it until a few days...
You could easily fit a mini-itx board. They're smaller than a DVD-rom drive. and the support equipment for it would fit elsewhere.Quote:

Just an idea.
oooh, how about using an LCD on the side panel that is the display for mobo#2?
Possible... But the case wont be on the desk.. It would be sitting on the floor.. It is too large to stick on the desk I have now :)Quote:

So looking at an LCD that low on the ground can be difficult.. Plus I am new to this and I dont know if I want to try and rip an LCD panel apart :(
Ripping a standard desktop LCD apart is easy. Just start taking out screws.Quote:

Well yeah but mounting it and all that... I will have to wait and see how this case looks when I have it in my possession :)Quote:

Make it into a crib for your kid.
:D j/k
All I have to say is fill up every 5 1/2" bay and use it as your gaming machine. You'll never have to switch CD's!
*lol* Switch CD's for what? I dont really want that many opticals :)Quote:

If you're like me, you'll be playing quite a few games at once, and it's a pain to always be switching out various CDs and DVDs. (Encarta, Halo, KOTOR, Morrowind, music CDs and CD-Rs can all go through my 2 opticals in a matter of hours...it's a pain:mad: )
Uh.......big.Quote:

How does it look?
Damn! That is Really Big! My project could probably fit inside that one!
Couple of questiions Colossus:
Steel or Aluminum?
Is the rear I/O standard for ATX? MB anchors too? (My main prob)
Is the door gonna stick around, or get some modding love as well?
Coke or Pepsi?
Ok, enough. That looks like a whole lot of fun! The 2 in one idea is very interesting. A gaming/OC'ing rig and a dedicated seperate folding machine in the same case. Very cool.
Well, when you get it and have a chance to do some measuring and brainstorming, let's hear some more of your ideas.
BTW, I believe it is only proper to come up with a project name. I vote for "Project: Colossal"
Just how I like it REAL BIG!Quote:

Steel.. So it weighs a TON!

Standard ATX board mounts and comes with 2x ATX Powersupplies.. Not sure exactly how the power supplies mix.. Since there is on power cable. You can get a better look when looking at the back of the case

I believe it sticks.. You can see a door lock. But I am not sure. I will have it on Wed/Thur

Pepsi all the way!!!!
I was thinking of a name for her... I am very excited about it. Since I am a virgin modder it will be difficult for me to try things out. But I am willing to try things out..Quote:

GLScooby, I respect your opinion. I have seen the great work that you have done.. Along with all the other modders like TAZ and Santa.. And all the others I know I am not naming since I am drawing a blank...
I have always wanted to mod a case. But when I look at my basic Enermax and Antec cases I dont see what I see in her... Does that make sense? I guess my basic cases dont turn me on like that new case does!
The two pc's in one is a nice idea.. I was thinking of something like that when BTX comes around.. Since then you can actually just mount it on the other side of the mobo tray and attach two cases to one...
I will surely have pictures for all the fans. But work would probably be slow. I do work.. But I need help in planning out my strategy..
Im still waiting for the interior pictures :(
But the dimensions of it is 25(H) x 11(W) x 19(D)
Also I found out that the clear door is not plexi!!!!!!
Its a very fine Metal Mesh cover!
I might keep it or switch to a smoked plexi.. Not sure!
keep the window it sounds like it is way more durable than plexi
plexi is easily scratched, and we don't want a scratched door now do we?
True.. But I am usually pretty careful.. I am just worried about rust.. Its not aluminum.. It is quite heavy steel :DQuote:

Since I am going to be sanding it down to allow the new coat of paint to adhere better.. Do you guys use any kind of sealant?
