Default New Xbox 360 Mod.

I was wondering if this would work..

Here's the case I want to put the Xbox 360 in.

I then found this, and wondered if it would work.

It would take a bit of work to make everything work, but I don't mind.



I also want to know, if I would be able to power regular computers fans with the PSU, without running into other problems.




Thanks.

Alright,

I'm not going with an acrylic case, however, I can't decide on which case to get..

Thermaltake Lanbox Lite Case w/ Window - Black

Apevia X-QPACK2 Portable 3 Window Case - Green
http://www.xoxide.com/apevia-xqpack2-window-green.html



Apevia X-QPACK Portable 3 Window Case - Green
http://www.xoxide.com/aspire-x-qpack-case-green.html





Which case do you think would be best?





Thanks.

Probably one of the little ones.


Really though, the only problem will be getting it all to fit without any standards (except maybe the DVD drive?). I like that Thermaltake, though. Kudos and good luck!

I agree with bob. The thermaltake looks like a high quality sick frag box with a "don't even look at me the wrong way" attitude.

Makes sense.

Think it will look nice with green cathodes? I have two 4'' green cathodes attached to the motherboard power area, so they're kind of stuck there, but it will make the case stand out more.


I'm pretty much putting all the problems on paper, and finding solutions.

I don't think I will get banned from XBL, but they think if I'm drawing more power, I'm using a mod chip.. But I don't think that will happen, and if it does, I'll take care of it.

I'm waiting on a response from the site that sells the PSU adapter, and once I get a confirmation, I'll order the stuff, and hopefully be working on this towards the end of the month/early November.


I also have to deal with the Xbox 360 DVD drive issue that started this whole thing.



Stay posted, and thanks.

I'll start working some plans this weekend, and hopefully order the stuff Monday, and go from there.


If I can find a good deal on this, http://www.xbox-scene.com/xbox1data/...puwoPZywPg.php

I will try and attach it to the case, only if everything works out. *Price, Mounting, Finding One, Ext.*

I personally like the thermal take but if you transport the 360, that handle would be really nice. I never thought id use the handle on my computer case and i'm surprised at how convenient it is.

The green cathodes on the thermaltake will look nice. As long it is all green (no blue fans or anything). If you have some red cathodes, that'll look better, but it is all preference.

I do transport it, a lot, but I can easily mod a handle on there or something.


Well, I found two Xbox 360 Portable Screens, the cheaper one got bad reviews, while the more expensive one got better reviews, lol.

Once I get the case transfer complete, I'll look into a screen mod.

Yeah, I chose green since it's the color of the Xbox, so.

But I do plan on getting green fans and stuff.
