Well the physical work took me around 6 hours all-in-all, including the internal components, but I took nearly 4 months to gather it all :lol: It's my first official casemod,so I actually didn't expect much of it. Was quite amazed at how successful it was in the end. At least I didn't ruin a perfectly good case lol

Thanks alot, it's my pride and joy lol Yeah that sounds quite interesting. Talk about the best of both worlds :lol: How large is the casing of a PS3? I haven't seen one... But you might have a bit of fiddling to do before everything fits, or is it larger than a PS2?

Believe it or not, I had to cut the side window with an angle grinder. Due to my complete lack of a dremel, or knowledge as to what on earth said tool is :oops: lol

its bigger than a PS2 but by no means big enough to fit a mobo and my 8800, but its a start... either going to tackle that or try to build a sound proof case... that should be a fun mod...

anyway, Im out...

cheers Halo
