Hi, Been a while since I've been here. So hi to you all, hope you're all well and still enjoying the wonders of GM! I'm working new case mod, I'm not 100% set on the design yet. I was trying to think of good color schemes and thought of Black and Green, which then prompted me to maybe do an nVidia themed case. I've drafted up a rough visual example below. Just want your thoughts on this design. Also, maybe some cool ideas of other themes. Original Case: [URL="http://postimage.org/image/exag5onin/"][IMG]http://s3.postimage.org/exag5onin/top1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Modded Case: [URL="http://postimage.org/image/959sfhvsj/"][IMG]http://s13.postimage.org/959sfhvsj/top1_mod.jpg[/IMG][/URL] The nVidia logo will be a cut out window. I know the image editing is not perfect, I just wanted to give myself a good idea of the end result before all the work involved.
I like the original case.
The modded case looks pretty good.
Changed design slightly so the logo is in it original aspect. I forgot to mention I will be wrapping the case in 3M Di Noc Carbon Fibre vinyl wrap. A few more things I should mention, is that the window will made using green acrylic sheeting. The letters will be made using mdf, cut using a template then beveled to match the original text. I will then wrap the letters in chrome vinyl. This updated design give you an idea. [URL="http://postimage.org/image/baoly2vp3/"][IMG]http://s7.postimage.org/baoly2vp3/top1_mod_2.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
I forgot I made a post here about this. I have a worklog at Overclock.net. [URL]http://www.overclock.net/t/1358723/nvidia-case-mod-cooler-master-elite-330[/URL] It's about 80% complete. I am re-doing the front bezel as you will see in the work log. It's just on hold for now due to lack of money. I will try and remember to update here.

I've recently acquired an Atx case with some basic components. I was thinking of making a garrys mod themed case. I would then sell it either as a pre built machine or just bare bones. Would this be something you guys would buy? My current case mod has cost me about £100.
