    Last chance to see Modded Akasa Eclipse & Star Ice..Before new Project :)

    Last chance to see my rig before it gets stripped for my new "Pimp My PC - TC Style"

    Colours may not be everyones cup of tea, but it surely gives you something to look at.



    For more pics check out My Akasa Eclipse

    Forgot to mention my ltd edition Asus Star Ice



    PS. Case gonna be up for sale as soon as I've finished my new chassis.

    New rig gonna be TotallyCustomised Silverstone TJ06 and water.

    You can buy similar ones from Vauxhall. If you go to your local dealer and quote Part No. 9026 2367.

    I'll see if I can get a pic up on web for you later.

    The clips are very much like pop rivets. Once in place all you need to do is push down on the long stem to hold in position.

    The one below shows the clip open


    The one below shows the clips closed in a fixed positon



    Hope this helps.

    If you're an avid reader of Hexus you may of read the article on the Scan Computers 3XS Chameleon

    I am the person responsible for the modded case and as you can see from the picture below

    We made a custom designed laser cut mount for the radiator. (I'll be able to talk about this a little more when the finished article rolls out the door from Scan as this was a prototype)

    This is an option for me, but as I have the facilites at www.totallycustomised.co.uk available to me, the sky's the limit

    Since posting this though my watercoling ideas have had a dramatic turn and I may be installing something with 2 x tripple rads pumps etc so I may have to opt for a different case. I posted last night here ->http://forums.hexus.net/showthread.php?t=50421 as to whether I should cut up this stacker for the job or opt for a new one.
    It's one of my favourite cases so it'll be a little hard setting to it with a laser cutter and sander etc
    We'll just have to see.
