Thats it for now.



Lets update.

I glued the regulator board to the heatsink to save space and mess.
I had to cut down some of the cooling pins to make it fit, but i`m pretty
happy with the results.

Nice work, also working on a GCp. Rewiring the DD pcb is really annoying, huh?

Not to be nit-picky, but could you please reduce the resolution of your pics? Most of us don't have super uber monitors (like me, with 1024 x 600). Another alternative is imageshack, so you can show a clickable thumbnail that can take you to the image's larger version.

Where'd you plan to put the dvd drive? Also wondering, how hot does you cube get?

I put my finger on the processor and the ATI processor.
The ATI processor gets fast hot.(ATI Processor is the on i put the fan over.) The other Processors (the big one and the 2 others next to it), didn`t get hot.
Just bout the same heat as my ear. EAR? :lol: Try puting your finger on your ear and you can feel what i mean. :P

I will put my DD on the back of the system. I found a realy perfect case at polycase.com.
Do you have anny pictures of your project? :shock:

The only pictures I have up are already posted in my worklog, a few topics down. I'm probably going to keep the current heatsink, and have one fan push the air out, and the other with pull hot air out of the system.

As for my casing, I'm hoping to make a vac-forming table, but... I might frankencase, depending on my income.

Frankencasing is when you take old cases from used electronics, melt and bondo them together, then sand them down to make a new case.
