[Slow and Steady wins the race]Parentiamortis. A Cooler Master N200 Transformation

[Laputacake]

Sup, never sure what to write here. So yeah, gonna pimping out my Cooler Master N200 which I bought last year. I have since moved to the Raijintek Agos but as I have an M-ATX motherboard I decided to try and sell the Raijintek and well, make the N200 more suited to me. Now, I'm not gonna say anymore as I want to keep it a surprise. Progress will be slow as i'm currently broke but as things slowly arrive i'll update the thread. Anyways let's get to what I have done so far.

So about half an hour ago I decided to cut a hole in the roof for reasons. Mounting the Power Supply up top. Also, until May enjoy the potato. And so here was the case before. I'd already had some of the motherboard mounting thingie ages ago.



My markings that are hopefully correct


The first incision. Don't worry, I'll be painting it later on down the line


Second cut. Half way done.


And its done. Hopefully the neighbours won't complain


Be using this later on. Gonna use about everything in this mod including all the scraps.


Well, that's it for now but there is something in the post which will make some improvements on the acoustics and temperatures of the graphics card ;D

Also, here it is currently



Also, the name is something I came up with and is purely random.

I don't know. Should I turn it around?

well, i assume that fan pushes air through fins.

 

so you have 2 fans working against each other. so do it so that it either pushes air up or to the left.

doesn't matter much as long as its blowing towards your rear exhaust.

Now that you say that I think thats the case. Derp

I dont think it is.

Small update. Moved pc into the Cooler Master N200 and found that i'll need smaller nuts for the graphics card.

Power supply fits in the hole

My current nuts are slightly thick so will not fit in the Graphics card

Had to mount my Xbox hard drive some way

And how it is now with no side panels and no cable management

That's all for today.
