No problem dude, I think you gonna like that little piece of hardware! Just take your time installing it and you'll be fine :D

Why dont you start a log for your mod so long, with a sketchup diagram (which looks like its in your sig already..) and post the ideas and what the mod is gonna look like. If you need anything just PM me :wink:

No worries, post as many links on this thread as you want, as long as its got to do with modding and not stupid posts I got no worries with it :D

The ViZo panel has got three audio outputs, four including the RCA connection. Theres one for mic, audio out and audio in. Theres more info here if you want

Thats a really good question my man, hopefully soon though. I got paid quite a bit today and Im hoping to find some good modding gear and continue! Im still looking for that damn 104mm hole saw Ett told me about! After every mod log I read on here I wish I could update as quick as you guys :cry:

I wish I had a hole saw like that too. I have to make 6 120mm holes in my case, and the biggest hole saw I have is only 80mm.

Oh man.....dremeling and sanding.....here we come :lol:

We can always chip in 50/50 and we just send it to each other. Theres a place about a 30 min drive from home that sells a huge variety of hole saws!

LOL Silv3r! The shipping fees would quickly make up the difference and we could have each bought one :wink:

They cost about R280 here. How much can you get them for?

lol dude, that would just be a stupid idea anyway!!!! I've seen one at Makro for around +-R200. If you want, when I find one and its cheaper, I can send it to you
muffinman wrote:looking good buddy, cant wait to see the final product!
Neither can I, I just need to get myself organise, cut a few holes, redo the plexi and Im sorted :lol:

I'll keep that motto in mind, isnt it from a 5.25" panel or something, the saying rings a bell

OK, so theres no updates unfortunately :cry:

But I'll let you in on my plans so far, for the final stages of this mod. Im planning on replacing the clear side panel perspex and fans with black, semi-mirrored (if it exists) perspex with no fan mounts, and I'll be mounting the two 80mm fans on the roof of my chassis for better air flow and cooling

What you guys think?

You think I should put a 120mm on the roof rather?
Thing is, I have a very special grille for a 120mm fan, with a red LED Antec TriCool fan, but I wanna save it for another mod. And Im gonna be getting my upgrades pretty soon, along with a new case that is gonna be A LOT better than 777

Well can't you get a cheap vantec 120mm? The blowholes are always loud so a quieter fan would be nice.

I'm glad you are gearing up again, dude.

You want a semi-mirrored effect? Why not try some window tint? I am pretty sure you would be able to get the exact colour you are looking for, and then just attach it to clear perspex...if you do it well, nobody will know the difference...

What do you think?

I might do that..... But I know you can get black plexi which is pretty mirror like-ish :lol:
I think I might just do that, gotta make some calls to Maizey first and then go pick it up

Oh right, now I get it. I might just do that, will see how things go. I first wanna organise the plexi though


Thanks for the comments and advise guys :bigups:
