An all internal build with a 3 fan radiator, perfect for LAN's, and aluminium,

Nice job! I love internal builds, so much better than huge radiators hanging off the back and such :). One question, how did you get that panel on the CD drive?
 
Those my friend, are some sweet mods!!! :eek:

How did you cut the side panel? what you put around the edges of the window?

Perfect man! Also looks really clean. :)
 
sweet job man well done!!!

what did you use to cool your memory? whats holding the fan?

im thinking of cooling my memory with a fan.
 
I really want to know what he put around the edge of the side panel, that little black tube or whatever it is that's holding the acrylic...
 
I think it's Edge Trimming, Right Taylor?

Excellent job, Dude! ;)

Using the almighty Chilled PC, Eh? Great Choice!

Did you change your loop since the CM690?
 
I really want to know what he put around the edge of the side panel, that little black tube or whatever it is that's holding the acrylic...
yup edge trimming with double sidded tape holding the acrylic on auto zone sells it
very nice job taylor all internal builds are theb best also it would look really cool if you replaces the fans with led fans
 
Cool! Now, what size is the "U channel" for the edge of the hole? and where do you get it?

It's nice to find someone else that likes to conceal their drives also!
 
Im seriously thinking on getting a new no-window'ed case just to mod it with a window and what not... :cool:
 
Is that what you did with your optical drive too voyager?

Yup. I should take some pics with the drives open so you can see where they are. (First and third slots)

i did that with mine only problum is i cant do it with the other becuase i have 3 devises in tthe 5.25 bays and i thru the other cover away:o and my fan contoller needs in a lot more

I was able to do it with my MadDog burner pretty easily. My LG, not so easily. I couldn't get the front panel off, so I just used an adhesive tape to get it on there.

I didn't have an double sided tape :( So I super-glued weather stripping to the drive cover and used the adhesive on the other side to mount it to the drive.

The only problem I've faced is the need to eject/insert a CD during boot-up. In Windows I use CD-Tray-Pal and some shortcuts on my G15 to open and close my drives, so when Windows isn't running, I can't eject the drive. I need to pry the bottom open and use a pencil to press the button.
 
Woah, thanks for all of the comments guys.

To answer some questions.

I used this window edging, they ship to USA too

I will attach acrylic to the panel using no more nails double sided tape

To make my stealth bay, i first ripped off the stock dvd drive face, i soldered a switch connected to a bit of wire, put the drive back together again. I then had to cut and sand down an old lian li front bezel, and then i stuck it to the drive using the same no more nails tape.

This means i can open the dvd drive using a button and not having to do it through windows :)

I used a dremel to cut everything

My fan controller and acrylic came today, so i will make a stealth mod for the sunbeam rehobus like i did with the dvd drive soon.

Thanks for your interests
